J’ai contacté Ariane en fin d’année de première. Je savais ce que je voulais faire comme type d études mais je ne savais pas où. Ariane a su me guider et me proposer de multiple choix de formations. Une fois mes choix réalisés , Ariane a continué de m’accompagner dans la rédaction de mon « personal statement ». Avec une démarche organisée et efficace, Ariane a su trouver les mots justes pour m’aider à accomplir cette tache parfois laborieuse. Toujours motivante et bienveillante, elle m’a permis d’être beaucoup plus serein et confiant pour envisager mes études. Parfois procrastinateur Ariane m’a stimulé en me donnant les clés et méthodes pour réussir. Toujours à l’écoute et extrêmement rapide dans les corrections, Ariane enlève un très gros poids et permet d’éviter le moindre regret lorsque qu’on envoie ses vœux . Aujourd’hui grâce à Stamina et Ariane je suis accepté à UCL ce qui me paraissait difficilement accessible pour moi il y a encore un an.

Ariane m'a guidée, soutenue et accompagnée pendant toute mon année de terminale dans mes applications UK, US et France.
Nous avons commencé en octobre à former mon personal statement UCAS, Ariane m'a aiguillée vers les programmes qui me correspondaient et a réussi à me guider pour que je détermine les éléments clés et les points forts de ma candidature ainsi que pour articuler et structurer mon statement.
En novembre, Ariane m'a apporté son expertise pour les universités de Californie et a su être réactive et présente pour m’aider à terminer mon application en une très courte période de temps.
Ariane a su être motivante, déterminée et encourageante dans le processus d’application aux Dual Programs de Sciences Po, à travers les relectures d'essais et les préparations aux entretiens. Ariane m'a soutenue et poussée, pour respecter les deadlines, refaire mes essais après 5 versions et m’a appris à me défendre en interview. J’ai finalement atteint mon objectif premier qui était de rejoindre le programme Sciences Po Columbia. J’ai également été acceptée en Angleterre à UCL, King’s College et Warwick. Je n'aurais pu y parvenir sans l'aide d’Ariane qui a su être présente, motivante et exigeante quand il le fallait.
Un grand merci !

Grâce à Ariane et Stamina, mes applications pour mes études supérieures ont été beaucoup moins stressantes et inquiétantes. Elle m'a tout d'abord aidé à réfléchir à mon orientation à travers la préparation du dossier de candidature au bachelor de polytechnique. Puis elle a su me rassurer lors de mes rédactions de projets motivés, en m'aidant à les perfectionner. J’ai particulièrement aimé sa dynamique de travail car elle n’est pas là pour faire le travail à ta place mais plutôt pour t'apprendre à le faire. J'ai appris grâce à elle de nombreuses techniques et savoir-faire que je pourrai réutiliser dans le futur. Je sais que sans Ariane je ne serais pas aussi satisfait de mes applications. Je la remercie donc du fond du cœur.

Choosing your universities and the courses you wish to pursue are hard and important tasks. Ariane has helped me and has guided me in the process of choosing my universities and making the right choices. She also was a big help in the process of writing my personal statement and preparing me for my interviews. She advised me ideas and gave me every information I needed to know to be a great applicant. I believe that I would have not been able to write a personal statement as convincing as the one Ariane helped me write and that I would have not been as prepared for my interviews without her help. Other from being a big help, Ariane is pleasant to work with and always responds to any questions I have. If you are starting your applications and you need help, Ariane’s services is what you need!

Having the opportunity to work with Ariane really made the process of choosing a university easier. Through these sessions, Ariane guided me in defining better the different courses in which I would be interested, as well as the most relevant skills I could put forward as assets. I also had the chance to prepare an interview with her, which helped me gain confidence and assurance.
Finally, Ariane further helped me in reviewing my personal statement for the UK and making me realize what experiences were interesting to highlight. Therefore, I would highly recommend choosing Ariane as a mentor during the process of orientation.

Prior meeting in person with Ariane has allowed me to clarify my thoughts and test my motivation for the program which I applied. We did a rehearsal on Skype prior to the interview in real conditions, which was of great help for me. I was well prepared to answer to any possible question and was feeling confident when the interview arrived. My interview was successful and I recommend Ariane.

Before meeting Ariane, I was plunged into a sea of doubt, questions and worries as I tried – unsuccessfully and with waves of despair – to figure out what my university path was. Deciding and then preparing for the range of tasks and challenges required for the admission process of these universities is difficult and requires practice. Before Ariane, I was barely scraping by, with little direction or guidance on how to sit in interviews, how to present and promote myself, and many more. Her help was specific to me, which was essential for me. She helped me tremendously, from writing succinct personal statements to practicing for my interviews, to analysing news articles…
Perhaps one of her best qualities, is her faith and belief in every one of her tutees. Her attention and motivation in helping me succeed was a huge factor in developing my confidence.
For me, attending Sciences Po was like a distant and unattainable dream, and perhaps even a shot in the dark. With her help, her availability, attention and especially her wisdom, I have learnt how to give a remarkable impression and be accepted to my dream school.
To Ariane: thank you again for your patience and all your guidance towards helping me fulfil my dreams of getting into Sciences Po.

Ariane a très certainement été la meilleure aide que je puisse recevoir dans mes applications et notamment en Angleterre. Elle m’a permis d’exploiter au mieux mes qualités et mes expériences vécues afin de rendre un personal statement dont je suis parfaitement satisfait, me permettant d’intégrer Imperial College. Travailler avec Ariane a été une expérience merveilleuse car c’est une personne extrêmement bienveillante, à l’écoute et toujours disponible. J’ai particulièrement apprécié sa rigueur et son sens du détail qui ont réellement permis d’améliorer et de perfectionner mes écrits. On sent qu’elle a beaucoup d’expérience dans ce domaine car ses conseils ont toujours été très précieux et utiles. Je suis convaincu que son aide est indispensable pour des projets d’études et plus particulièrement s’ils sont ambitieux.
Encore un grand merci pour ton aide Ariane !

Choisir les universités et les programmes qui nous correspondent le mieux, en terme d’intérêts mais aussi de valeurs et de méthode de travail peut s’avérer très complexe et intimidant au premier abord. Ariane m’a apporté un soutien inestimable ainsi que de précieux conseils, et m’a rassurée dans le processus contre-la-montre et angoissant de l’élaboration de mon personal statement pour les universités anglaises. Elle m’a gentiment guidée et corrigée jusqu’à la dernière erreur, afin de m’aider à rendre un dossier dont je suis amplement satisfaite. Très professionnelle, Ariane est également attentionnée, à l’écoute, mais aussi très motivante, ce qui rassure beaucoup. Encore une fois, merci Ariane pour ta patience et ta sympathie !

Working with Ariane greatly helped me with my personal university and application preparation for the United Kingdom. Ariane provided me with extensive support on matters such as the Personal Statement, and continuously gave me meaningful feedback and suggestions for improvement throughout the application process. As a Cambridge applicant who had little to no experience of formal interviews, her coaching enabled me to grow in confidence and learn about myself and my own strengths, which was crucial for my interview. She was able to provide me with a very solid preparation and training to ensure that I was as successful as possible. I would highly recommend her guidance to anyone who seeks to apply for a competitive school or program.

My experience with Stamina really helped me understand myself better, allowing me to choose a specific path for university. Ariane took the time to explain to me the possibilities of classes and universities, giving me in depth explanations of each. Because she put in the effort to know me, we were able to narrow down the options to what suits me best. This is a tough decision and all of the courses look intimidating and complex, but Ariane was able to simplify things for me. Because of her, I am a lot more knowledgeable, confident, and excited for my university adventures. I feel that I’m going to do great in school, and I have Ariane to thank for that!

Stamina has allowed me to identify my strengths and weaknesses and has been an important factor in determining my university destination. I cannot stress enough how much it has helped me develop a positive attitude towards my interviews. It has given me confidence as Ariane believed in me and taught me to believe in myself. I like how motivational and open Ariane was. What helped me a lot was that the work we did was one to one and it was focused on me. It helped us work much more effectively and in an organised way. All in all, the whole process allowed me to clearly visualise my goals and how to achieve them.
