About Imperial Education Consultants
Imperial Education Consultants (IEC) operates from Diamond Plaza, 4th Parklands Avenue, Nairobi, describing itself as a one-stop study abroad consultancy with access to 300+ accredited universities across 25 countries. The firm reports placing over 10,000 students and claims a 98% visa success rate — figures that, if accurate, represent one of the strongest track records among Nairobi consultancies. IEC is particularly notable for the breadth of its post-offer services: accommodation booking, flight arrangement, airport pickup coordination, and ongoing follow-up after arrival place it closer to a full student lifecycle manager than a standard admissions agency. The consultancy organises regular university exhibition events and life skills workshops for prospective students, and maintains a student portal (Atlas) for application tracking. A LinkedIn company page is maintained at ke.linkedin.com, supporting some level of professional transparency. IEC covers a wide destination range including non-English-speaking markets such as Germany, Switzerland, India, China, and Malaysia.

ConsultancyCheck's own assessment, from public records and the company's own materials. This is our judgement — not a summary of student reviews.
How Imperial Education Consultants get paid
Imperial Education Consultants does not charge students a placement fee. Like most education agents, it is paid a commission by the universities it places students into. That does not make its advice bad — but the agent is paid by the institution, not by you, so it has more financial reason to recommend a partner university than a non-partner one. Ask which universities it represents, and whether your shortlist is on that list.

Frequently asked questions
The bottom line
Imperial Education Consultants (IEC) is one of the more substantial consultancies operating in the Nairobi market, with claimed access to 300+ universities across 25 countries and a reported placement history of over 10,000 students. The post-offer service suite — including accommodation booking, flight arrangement, and airport pickup — is a genuine differentiator from most Kenyan competitors, and the Atlas student portal adds process transparency that clients can track. The claimed 98% visa success rate, while unverified independently, suggests a consultancy that has invested in understanding visa documentation thoroughly. For Kenyan students seeking a full-service, multi-destination consultancy with strong UK, Australia, Canada, and USA coverage, IEC is one of the more structured options in Nairobi. Students should request specific institutional evidence before committing.
