Good questions.

ARJAA is an Omani-led study abroad consultancy and student community. We support Omani students as they explore universities, prepare applications and settle into life abroad, including students on scholarship and self-funded pathways.

We begin with your goals, circumstances and questions. Our approach is shaped by Omani experiences abroad, an understanding of different funding pathways and the importance of family involvement. Mentors and ambassadors bring a personal perspective to your planning.

Our support covers university and country guidance, mentoring and application preparation, student insights and community connections. This can include personal statements, interview practice, planning deadlines and preparing for arrival. Discuss your needs with us so we can agree on the right scope of support.

Yes. Your first conversation with ARJAA is complimentary. It is a chance to discuss your background, goals and timeline, ask initial questions and understand how we can support you before making a commitment.

Use the consultation planner below, email arjaaom@gmail.com or contact us on WhatsApp. Tell us your current stage, the subjects or destinations you are considering and any important deadlines. You do not need to have everything figured out before you reach out.

Starting around 12–18 months before your intended intake can give you time to research courses, prepare documents and consider scholarships. The right timeline depends on your course and application route. If your deadline is closer, share the dates with us so we can discuss what is still practical.

Yes. Mentoring can help you identify relevant experiences, structure your ideas and improve your drafts. The statement should remain in your own voice and accurately reflect your experience. Follow the current instructions for each university or application platform.

Yes. We can discuss interview preparation and practice suited to your intended programme. Sessions focus on explaining your motivation, discussing your experiences and responding clearly to questions. Tell us the interview format and date when you contact us.

A short outline of your current qualifications, interests, preferred destinations and target start date is a useful starting point. If you already have a shortlist or an offer, mention it. The team can then explain which documents are relevant to your next step.

Yes. Family involvement is welcome. Let us know when arranging your consultation who would like to join and which questions matter most, so the conversation can address the student’s plans and the family’s concerns together.

We can discuss preparation for the Takatuf pathway, including organising your questions, application materials and interview preparation. Confirm the current eligibility rules, approved options and deadlines directly with the programme; these determine what you can apply for.

Yes. ARJAA supports self-funded students as well as students exploring government-sponsored and other scholarship pathways. For self-funded study, we can discuss your shortlist, budget considerations and university funding opportunities to research.

Fees depend on the type and extent of support you need. Your first consultation is free; contact the team for a breakdown of any further services, what is included and the applicable terms before you decide.

Consider tuition, accommodation, food, transport, travel, insurance and any application or visa-related charges. Costs differ by course, city and circumstances. Use current university fee pages and accommodation listings to build your budget, and check exactly what any scholarship covers.

No. Mentoring supports your preparation, but admissions and scholarship decisions are made by the university or awarding body. Requirements and competition vary. We focus on helping you understand your options and prepare thoughtfully.

Our destinations page lets you explore countries and institutions in one place. ARJAA’s published guidance includes the UK, USA and other destinations across Europe and beyond. Ask us about support for your particular country, course and funding route.

No. You can come with a favourite subject, a few countries in mind or simply an interest in studying abroad. We can help you compare course content, entry requirements, location and practical considerations before building a shortlist.

Use the Ministry of Higher Education, Research and Innovation’s official university search, and confirm how its guidance applies to your specific programme, qualification and mode of study. Our destinations guide helps you explore; check the current official position before committing.

This depends on the institution, course and your previous qualifications. Check the course’s current language requirements, accepted tests, minimum scores and any exemptions directly with the university. Bring those requirements to your consultation if you would like help planning your preparation.

Yes. You can discuss pre-departure preparation, practical arrival questions and connecting with the student community. Tell us what support you need around accommodation, your new city and settling in so we can agree on the next steps.

Browse the team and scholar profiles, then request an introduction through ARJAA. Ambassadors can share their own experiences of study and everyday life. Introductions depend on availability and the relevance of their experience to your questions.

Experiences differ. Learning a new city, academic expectations and daily routines can take time. Speaking with students already there, joining university societies and knowing where to find student support can help you build a routine and a sense of belonging.

Availability varies by university and neighbourhood. Check the university’s Muslim student society, faith or chaplaincy services and local community resources. Ask about facilities near your campus and accommodation; ambassadors may also be able to share local experience.
