Demystifying Graduate School for Bangladeshi Engineers
Generic study-abroad consultants do not understand the technical demands of a CS/Engineering MSc or PhD, nor the constraints of a Bangladeshi passport. We built GradPlanner to bridge that gap.
The Reality of Applying from Dhaka
Every year, hundreds of top CSE/SWE graduates from universities like BUET, DU, UIU, NSU, and BRACU plan their higher education abroad. But they face critical hurdles:
Embassy Waitlists: Waiting 2.5+ years for a German student visa appointment in Dhaka can derail a fully funded offer.
Funding Dependency: Bangladeshi students are almost exclusively scholarship-dependent. Rank-200 funded positions are prioritized over Rank-10 unfunded ones.
Document timelining: Standard platforms do not account for police clearances, degree releases, or GIC wire speed from local Bangladeshi banks.
How GradPlanner Helps
GradPlanner provides a data-driven system specifically designed around these constraints. We don't just show university rankings; we compile actual funding rates, PR probabilities, and visa turnaround strategies.

Our Core Principles
Funding Over Ranking
We focus on opportunities with active research stipends, tuition waivers, and scholarship awards. A prestigious university with no funding is rarely a viable option.
Actionable Outreach
Securing an advisor is the fastest path to admission. We build pipelines to manage professor communication, track responses, and automate follow-ups.
Immigration & PR Intelligence
Graduate study is often the first step to immigration. We evaluate which countries offer transparent post-graduation work permits and long-term residency pathways.
