In their own words
Edvoy
Edvoy is a study-abroad platform and consultant for students choosing courses, applying to universities and arranging related services. Its search covers more than 75,000 courses, and Edvoy says it works with more than 750 universities across major study destinations. Its Genie tool sorts possible course matches into three admission-prospect groups using qualifications, English scores, study gap, budget and regional rules. Students can upload documents, submit applications and follow their status through the portal or app. The service also offers unlimited free online one-to-one counselling and guidance on university selection, applications, visas, education loans, accommodation and IELTS training. Edvoy Stays connects students with accommodation near more than 450 universities; bookings have no service charge. Edvoy is free and available on the web and Android, with program search, institution comparison, application management and document management. It serves 20 destination countries. Express Offers are limited to select UK universities and are offers in principle, not confirmed admission; university acceptance remains discretionary.
PhDportal
PhDportal is a free web service for finding and comparing English-taught PhD programmes at universities worldwide. Its catalogue lists more than 19,000 programmes from over 900 universities. Search filters cover subject, country, tuition fees, duration, study format, language requirements and university rankings. Users can save programmes to a shortlist for comparison, then connect directly with universities when applying. The service also supports scholarship searches and provides university pages with rankings, reviews, student life, admission requirements and tuition fees. Registered users can receive study matches, update preferences and keep a wishlist. Programme information comes from official university websites; some universities update listings directly, while PhDportal's data team curates and verifies others. Most programme pages are checked at least once a year, and tuition fees, deadlines and study dates are checked for unusual changes or inconsistencies. Students are advised to verify final details with the university before applying. PhDportal is part of Studyportals, whose operator is Studyportals B.V., headquartered in Eindhoven, Netherlands.
