\nSTUDY IN THE USA, UK & CANADA
\nThe Safir Company is dedicated to quality cross-cultural education. We provide Moroccans with counseling services to help them apply to universities in the USA, UK, Canada, and elsewhere in the English-speaking world.
\nThroughout the program, students are paired with one of our American University Counselors. Students meet with their Counselor twice per month on average, and are guided through the whole process of applying to foreign universities. Counselors help students select ten universities, to diversify students\u2019 options. Counselors help their Moroccan students understand the different systems of university applications, prepare essays, and apply for financial aid as well.

She holds a BA in Sociology and Anthropology from DePauw University (with a minor in French) and an MA in Applied Sociology from the University of Indianapolis.

She is passionate about helping youth and is eager to put her energies towards helping Moroccan students who wish to study abroad. Working as a speech and writing counselor during her undergraduate, paired with her personal experiences applying for universities and study abroad programs, has given Elizabeth the proper tools and training to give students a competitive edge when filling out applications, editing essays, and applying for scholarships.
