When and where is Abin Mathew Varghese meeting students in the UAE?
Abin is in Dubai from Thursday 24 September to Tuesday 6 October, meeting students, parents and professionals at our venue in Deira – Rigga Al Buteen, near Ajman Bank. Free study abroad one-to-ones are fully booked and migration slots are limited, so book early — or join the free Study Abroad Seminar on Saturday 26 September. Your exact time slot and directions are confirmed when you book.
Is the study abroad consultation really free?
Yes. Study abroad consultations with Guide to Heights are absolutely free for students and parents, in Dubai and everywhere else. You pay nothing for counselling, university shortlisting, application support or student visa guidance. There is no registration fee and no hidden charge. For this Dubai visit the free one-to-one slots are fully booked — WhatsApp +91 89217 68892 to find a session if one opens, or reserve a free seat at the seminar.
How much is the Australia migration consultation, and what does the fee cover?
The Australia migration consultation is AED 150 per session, paid online when you register. The fee covers the one-on-one consultation only. It does not include visa lodgement, government application fees, skills assessment fees or any third-party charges.
Why is the migration consultation paid when the study abroad session is free?
Study abroad counselling is free for every student and parent we work with, in Dubai and everywhere else. Migration consultations are a separate, personal advisory session with Abin, so a small fee keeps the session reserved for serious clients who are ready to plan their move to Australia.
What is the free Study Abroad Seminar on 26 September?
It is a free 2-hour group seminar with Abin Mathew Varghese on Saturday 26 September 2026, 11:30 AM to 1:30 PM Dubai time, at our Deira – Rigga Al Buteen venue. It covers which country fits you best (Australia, New Zealand, the UK, Ireland or Germany), the best courses and upcoming intakes (January 2027 for the UK and Ireland; February–March 2027 for Australia and New Zealand), real fees and scholarships, the student visa process, part-time work, stay-back and PR options, plus a live Q&A. Seats are limited to 30.
How do I reserve seats for the seminar?
Reserve your seats free through the Calendly link on this page. Tell us how many people are coming with you — while booking, or on WhatsApp at +91 89217 68892 — so we can arrange seating. Please reserve only if you can attend, and bring your latest marksheets and your IELTS or PTE score if you have one.
Who should book the Australia migration consultation?
Anyone seriously considering a move to Australia: working professionals, nurses, engineers, IT specialists, tradespeople, business owners and families. If you want to understand work visa options, skilled and permanent residency pathways, points, occupation lists and what your profile realistically qualifies for, this is the session to book.
Which countries can I discuss at the study abroad consultation?
India, Australia, the UK, New Zealand, Ireland, Germany and more, for both bachelor's and master's degrees. Guide to Heights has 500+ university associations, so Abin can compare real options across countries rather than pushing one destination.
Can parents attend the consultation?
Yes, and we encourage it. Study abroad decisions are family decisions, so parents are welcome to join the session and ask about costs, safety, accommodation and return on investment. Parents can also book a session on behalf of a son or daughter who is still in India.
What should I bring to the consultation?
For study abroad: your passport, marksheets or transcripts, any English test score and a rough budget. For migration: an updated CV, qualification certificates, work experience letters, English test score, passport and current visa details. Digital copies on your phone are fine.
How do I book, and how will I know my time?
Seminar seats are reserved free through the Calendly link, and Australia migration consultations are booked and paid through the secure Razorpay link. Free study abroad one-to-ones are fully booked for this visit — message +91 89217 68892 on WhatsApp and we will tell you if a slot opens. You then receive a confirmation with your date, time and directions to the Deira venue.
I live in Abu Dhabi, Sharjah or another GCC country. Can I still book?
Yes. All meetings during this visit are held at our Dubai venue in Deira – Rigga Al Buteen, and families from across the UAE and the wider GCC are welcome to travel in. If you cannot make it to Dubai, you can book a free online consultation at any time through the Guide to Heights booking page.
Is Guide to Heights a certified consultancy?
Yes. Guide to Heights is QEAC certified (#10439) through PIER Australia and recognised by the British Council (#49805). The company is registered in India (CIN U80301KL2022PTC078017) and licensed in the UAE (SC241129101), with offices in Kochi, Dubai and Melbourne.
Does the migration consultation guarantee a visa or permanent residency?
No. It is an information and guidance session. Abin explains the pathways, requirements and realistic timelines for your profile and suggests the best next steps. Visa decisions are made by the Australian Department of Home Affairs based on your application and the rules in force at the time.
