2. Free personality and country tests
We offer the personality and country tests for free to help narrow down your search for the right degree or study destination.
Our tests use your answers and preferences to figure out which country or discipline matches your personality in just a couple of minutes. The best part? You can retake the tests as many times as you want.
3. Save and compare your favourite study programmes
Wishlist is a simple but essential feature that allows you to save all your favourite study programmes in one place. Since everything is synced to the Studyportals account, you can access these programmes from any device.
You can forget about wasting time scrolling through endless pages and menus to find the degree that got your attention. Instead, just click the green heart icon, and it will be saved to your wishlist. And that’s not all!
Wishlist goes hand in hand with the comparison tool, which is an easy and quick way to compare multiple studies side by side. It presents a clear and easy-to-understand overview of details like tuition fees, application deadlines, English language requirements, and so on.
In a matter of seconds, the comparison feature allows you to know which degree has friendlier admission requirements or more reasonable tuition costs.
4. BestFit: see how well you match each study programme
BestFit is arguably one of the most useful features on our portal. By answering a few questions about your academic interests, personal ambitions, and financial situation, we’ll show your compatibility with each study programme.
You’ll see it displayed as ‘poor match’, ‘fair match’, ‘good match’, or ‘excellent match’ next to each degree. This way, you will instantly know which studies are more suitable for you and which ones you might want to reconsider.
Some of the questions you’ll need to answer are:
- What discipline have you studied before?
- What are your previous academic results?
- What’s your current English level?
- What’s your available budget?

5. Get access to personalised recommendations
The Studyportals account also comes with a section of personalised recommendations. There, we’ll provide you with helpful suggestions based on your interests and preferences. These include:
- attractive scholarships
- study programmes that match your interests
- helpful articles on tuition fees, living costs, admission tests, etc.
6. Check out university reviews from students
Global university rankings from TopUniversities, Times Higher Education, or U.S. News provide a lot of value, and many international students use them to choose a higher education institution.
But the truth is these rankings don’t always tell the whole story. That’s why we’ve decided to empower students and allow them to review the university where they are enrolled.
Their reviews are available on our portals, and in addition to their description, students can leave a star rating from 1 to 5, with 5 being the highest score. With a Studyportals account, you can both view and leave a review of your university, thus contributing to the success of future students.
We then use these reviews to organise recurring events such as the Global Student Satisfaction Awards (GSSA), where we highlight and offer awards to the top universities based on the opinion of students.
7. Unibuddy: chat with students from the universities that interest you
A Studyportals account will also enable access to Unibuddy, one of our official partners, allowing you to connect and chat with students from countries or universities that interest you.
This enables prospective students to learn more detailed information about campus life, academic experiences, or challenges faced by others. As a result, you can discover insights that will help you decide faster, and you’ll have fewer doubts about your choice.

8. Apply for the Studyportals Scholarship
Scholarships are one of the hottest topics among students who want to go abroad. That’s because they can often help you partially finance your dream or even cover the full university tuition fees or living costs.
Seeing how important they are, we’ve decided to come up with our own initiative, and that’s how the Studyportals Scholarship: International Distinction Awards was born. We’ve already had winners in 2020 and 2021, and we’re looking forward to helping other students in 2022.
We currently offer two prizes: one worth 10,000 EUR and one worth 5,000 EUR, and you should apply if you meet the admission criteria. One of them is having/creating a Studyportals account.
Have any questions about the scholarship? Check out our FAQ page or send us an email at ida@studyportals.com.
