Polina Poliakova - From Moscow To Munich
Yana Immis
Ms. Polina Poliakova has successfully started her Master of Science (M.Sc) Finance program at ISM at Munich (September 2019)
“I decided to go to Germany to get a master's degree after I surpassed all admission deadlines. Nothing is impossible!
Moreover, the requirements set by me and my parents (for my future university) were very high! Someone would say, nearly unrealistic, as we started our search in the middle of July 2019.
Yana was on the same wavelength with me and my family, so we, in the shortest period of time, managed to make the best choice. And let me tell you how that developed:
I was looking for:
a top school
a finance major
a school with a high % of professors, holding PhD
an option to start in September
a program with a mandatory internship
But how could this be possible?
By chance, on the Internet, my dad found Yana’s YouTube Channel, who decided to open her own Agency, and I became her first client. By the way, I had already come across her interview in the Russian language a few months back even before she started her business.
We were lucky because we were able to meet up with Yana in Moscow when she was there for a couple of days. We had a 6-hour meeting where we determined the scope of our mutual work. She also helped me realize what I really wanted to study and where.
We had a really difficult case, which consequently was very interesting.
Yana, like a meteor, gave us overnight a big number of universities to choose from. She has always been in touch and offered a lot of options that would fit our requests. Also, thanks to her connections, we flew to Germany and made a tour of the universities to meet the admissions teams. I personally visited each of the selected universities to pass the entrance interviews.
Needless to say that she arranged all of this after all the official deadlines? Thank you for negotiating on my behalf!
I moved to Munich to study my Master’s Degree at ISM & I love my university, I fell in love with it at first sight. I recommend students to choose university by passion and listen to your heart! Visit the university before you make a selection!
Yana had been supportive all the way concerning all the matters for my relocation, visa, and accommodation in Germany. Frankly speaking, we have been chatting 24/7 for the last few months and I never felt treated like a client because we became friends right away. Now I'm really looking forward to the moment she will fly back to Munich to meet me!
I try to follow her example:
To always stay positive
To not fear anything
To develop
To open up and meet new people
I hope that one day my success story will also be at her website. Currently loading… I am in the process. Thanks for everything, my German Education Fairy!
