What it is

Admission.ly is a web platform for international students to discover universities and manage applications. Its catalogue lists 1,005 institutions across 14 countries and 109 programmes. Search filters cover destination, degree, field, tuition, language, and intake; students can also compare institutions and search for scholarships. Where an application route is available, applicants can submit requested documents and follow status changes, messages, invoices, and decisions in one portal record. They can apply themselves when a form is live, or work with a verified partner agency or an institution’s admissions team. Approved agencies can submit applications, answer document requests, and review commission records. Participating institutions can maintain programme details, control application availability, request documents, and communicate through application records. The free Student plan has no platform fee for searching, comparing, or submitting where a route is available, though institution, tuition, enrolment, or service fees may still apply. The verified label reflects identity, authority, and content checks; it is not accreditation, a ranking, or an admission guarantee. Email support replies are stated within 24 business hours.
