Welcome to the great
escape!
We built these resources with our former selves in-mind. Figuring out
how to find affordable higher education was emotionally taxing and
financially difficult, so we thought it would be beneficial to put all of
our learnings into one space for others to benefit! We’re here to help
you build a better life abroad, no matter your background.
What’s included:
Budget-friendly degrees.
Discover programs that keep you away from the shackles of college debt.
Explore career options.
Imagine what a degree from the Netherlands will look like to a global employer like Google. European degrees work wonders!
Learn how to get in.
Europe is different because there’s no need to fluff up your resume.
See how to get started.
Learn the ins and outs of the college selection and admissions process, with all the help you need to get you there.

“For many families looking at hundreds of thousands in debt after a college education, fortunately, there are other options. When you look at the economics and the cultural benefits of studying in Europe, it’s kind of a no-brainer.”
