Pros & cons

Options Education Agency
✓ What students love
  • ✓Dual Nairobi + Adelaide offices enable genuine onshore student support — rare among Kenya-based consultancies
  • ✓Strong and specific Google reviewer sentiment, with multiple clients naming the same counsellors positively — a meaningful quality signal
  • ✓Onshore services (course changes, visa extensions, health cover) are practically useful and uncommon among competitors
  • ✓IELTS/PTE English test training and booking bundled as a standalone service (Kshs. 9,900)
✗ Drawbacks
  • ✗Primary Australia focus — less depth for Canada, UK, or Germany compared to Australia-specialist track record
  • ✗The Nairobi office serves the Westlands area primarily; students from outside Nairobi may find logistics challenging
  • ✗No publicly listed ICEF or British Council formal accreditation
SI-UK Kenya
✓ What students love
  • ✓UK-only specialist with unmatched Russell Group and British university connections
  • ✓Free consultation service — no agency fee
  • ✓Full UCAS application management
  • ✓Expertise in competitive UK professional programmes
✗ Drawbacks
  • ✗Only handles UK applications — not suitable if considering Australia, Canada, or USA
  • ✗UK-only means no expertise in other destinations
