make spaces.

I remember being burdened with my studio work and was wondering how I would manage my time to apply for my further education. That is exactly when I came across Make Spaces on Instagram. Before this, I had visited almost a hundred career counselling and guidance agencies, some looked dull, some very enthusiastic to have me around. But none appealed to me because most of them gave a very generic overview of the admission processes and made me understand why I should categorizing colleges as safe choices. Also neither of them specialized in understanding the requirements for a student with background in architecture and built environment.

 

I signed up for a brief discussion with Arnav Prakash at Make Spaces for a one hour slot and I immediately decided to ask him to mentor me. Trusting Arnav has been one of the best decisions I've ever made! As a person who is very critical of everything around me, the mentorship program at Make Spaces was exactly the place for me. All the deadlines for completion of the required documents set forth right in the initial weeks. (I didn't meet any and Arnav did not abandon me - extremely grateful for that). Every little detail of my journey was discussed over and over again to concise and refine it . I also remember Arnav asking a 100 times to convince him I wanted to do this throughout the process, and I think that reinforced my application spirit and confidence that I wont end up in a wrong place. 

 

Make Spaces was the only place which support me and keep me confident in applying to only the top universities even though all the 10 colleges I chose and applied to were extremely ambitious. With so many advices and anticipation contributing to self doubt, Arnav made sure I was never stuck to my decision and that I put all of my thinking only towards applying and getting an admit!

 

Arnav has been a consistent steady support- be it early mornings, late nights, never a no for even the slightest and silliest query at the most odd time of the day! There were times when I wanted to give up and let colleges go but he made sure I missed none even though it meant hitting the upload and pay button one minute prior to the deadline !  He made sure he followed up a gazillion time to not miss out on anything. The best part is I just could be myself and enjoy the entire process even at the peak of my stress. Never had to follow any rules, follow standard boring templates to finish things up and neither make a big deal of anything. 

 

Grateful can be very little word for what Make Spaces has offered. I strongly suggest that it branch to form Miracles at Make Spaces for everything it does to help one keep moving! Make Spaces has my highest recommendations in all true senses and is a perfect place for everyone to be themselves without any fear. There was no chance that this happened the way it is for me without the team! If I ever had to do all of this again, it definitely is here :) A hundred thank you to Arnav for agreeing to do this and being the best mentor ! Cheers to many more strides :D
