Case Study of Neha - Study in Ireland | Education Street
How Education Street Helped Neha From Mumbai Secure Admission in Ireland for a Master’s in Management.
1. Meet Neha – Her Background and Study Abroad Dream
Neha from Mumbai aspired to pursue higher education in Ireland. She completed her B.E. in Civil Engineering from Mumbai University with a 6.9 CGPA. During her degree, she faced multiple backlogs and received ‘E’ and ‘F’ grades due to health-related challenges, which she later cleared.
She had having total work experience of 3 years, but in a different field than what she had studied in her bachelor’s. She wanted to apply for a Master’s Degree in Marketing, which was completely different from her previous academics.

2. The Challenges Neha Faced Before Joining Us
Before coming to Education Street, Neha applied to a few universities on her own but struggled with many things, such as –
- Lack of Clarity – She was not aware that an irrelevant educational background is not acceptable in Irish universities. She wanted to apply for marketing and she had an education in Civil Engineering, which resulted in rejections from many universities she applied to.
- No Proper Documentation & SOP – She was having confusion in uploading documentations, drafting a proper SOP which can justify why she wants to pursue Marketing when she does not have that background.
- One Visa Rejection – She got one offer from a university and applied visa as well, but her Visa was rejected on the basis of the wrong course, irrelevant academics and no proper justification about career plans.
2. What Neha Wanted to Achieve
Neha aimed to –
- Apply for a Master’s in Ireland.
- Target – September 2025 intake
- Choose the proper course that can match her interests and her experience
3. How Education Street Built the Right Strategy for Her
When Neha approached Education Street, we asked her to share all her documents, including the previous Visa rejection letter. The team did the assessment of all the academics, work experience documents.
She wanted to go for a marketing course, but as her education was in Civil Engineering, there were very limited college options available where she could have applied. Her experience was in Finance and marketing, based on which our team suggested she apply Master’s in Management course, where her profile was eligible to apply, and she could learn management skills and opt for specialisation in Marketing.
The team helped her prepare a proper SOP, all the documents, backlog summary and applied to 3 colleges. She received an unconditional offer from IBAT College, Dublin.
Our team then helped her with proper funds documents, visa documents and applied Student Visa.

After a long journey of over a year filled with ups and downs, I finally received my Ireland student visa - and I couldn't have done it without Education Street.
I’m especially grateful to Tejashree Ma'am for her continuous support and guidance, right from helping me shortlist the right university to assisting with every step of the application process, including the crucial visa preparation.
It truly was a roller coaster ride, but her timely advice, patience, and commitment made all the difference. Even when things got delayed or uncertain, she and the team at Education Street remained consistent, supportive, and encouraging throughout.
