Our Success MetricsExplained in Detail

We believe in complete transparency. Here's exactly what Think Mile's claims mean and how we measure success.

What "95% Success Rate" Actually Means

Definition of "Success"

Our 95% success rate means: 95% of students who complete our full-service paid support receive at least one university admission letter. from German universities.

Success = University Admission Letter (not just application submission)
Measured from students who completed our full service since 2018
Based on 500+ students we've guided since 2018

What's Included:

  • Students who received admission from any tuition-free public German university
  • Both conditional and unconditional admissions
  • All major German states, note public unis are not uniformly free: Baden-Württemberg charges €1,500/semester and parts of Bavaria (e.g. TUM) charge non-EU fees

What's NOT Included:

  • Students who didn't complete application documents
  • Students with ineligible academic backgrounds
  • Self-service package users (DIY applicants)

Important Clarification

Admission ≠ Visa Approval ≠ Enrollment: Our 95% success rate measures university admission only. Visa approval depends on embassy decisions, financial proof, and interview performance. Final enrollment depends on students meeting conditional requirements (e.g., language certificates, degree completion).

500+ Students Guided: The Full Story

Since 2018, we've guided 500+ students through the German university application process. Here's the detailed breakdown:

475+
Received Admissions
(95% of our guided students)
430+
Enrolled in Germany
(~90% of admitted students enrolled)
100%
Public Universities
(We prioritise low-cost public unis; most are tuition-free, a few states charge non-EU fees)

86% of all students we guided ultimately enrolled, combining admission and enrollment rates.

Why Don't All Admitted Students Enroll?

1.Conditional Requirements Not Met (~5%): Students couldn't obtain required language certificates (TestDaF, DSH) or complete their bachelor's degree in time
2.Personal/Family Decisions (~6%): Students chose other countries, got better opportunities, or family circumstances changed (marriage, health issues, etc.)
3.Financial Constraints (~3%): Couldn't arrange blocked account funds (€11,904) or living expenses despite admission

No visa rejections among students who completed our full visa preparation process (since 2018).
