Sarem Education — alumni-led Europe study abroad consultancy
Sarem Education was founded in 2018 by Sarah Ingrid (a 15+ year industry veteran) and Prem (a DCU and NCI graduate who has lived in Ireland since 2014). We are a Europe-focused consultancy — we process applications across the entire continent and maintain dedicated expertise at top hotspot destinations where opportunities are abundant: Ireland, France, Germany, Netherlands, UK, Spain, Italy, Sweden, and more. Our sister brand Study France (studyfrance.in) is India’s dedicated France-focused consultancy.
We don’t limit you to a handful of English-speaking destinations. Ireland’s Critical Skills route, Germany’s tuition-free public universities, France’s Grandes Écoles and Paris-Saclay, Netherlands applied sciences, UK Russell Group, Spain IE/ESADE, Italy Bocconi/Politecnico, and the Nordic countries — wherever in Europe fits you best, we know the process.
Co-founder Prem came to Ireland in 2014 as an international student, survived a fraudulent college that collapsed within days, rebuilt his education at DCU and NCI, and has lived in Ireland for 12+ years as an Irish citizen. We’ve personally walked the path you’re about to walk — and we guide you with honesty, not sales pressure.
Initial counselling is always free. For most applications — where universities partner with Sarem — we charge zero processing fees. For tuition-free or very low-cost public universities (like Germany’s public system), where universities don’t compensate consultancies, we charge a transparent processing fee discussed upfront. You always know the exact cost before proceeding.
Three ways to reach Sarem Education
We respond to every enquiry within 24 hours. WhatsApp is our fastest channel — particularly for international students. In-person visits to our Chennai office are optional; remote video consultations work the same.

We serve students across India and around the world
Sarem is headquartered in Chennai but our work is not geographically bounded. We’ve successfully processed applications for students from every state in India and from across the Middle East, Africa, and Asia-Pacific. Wherever you’re based, our counsellors are equipped to support you.
Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Maharashtra, Gujarat, Delhi NCR, Punjab, Haryana, West Bengal, Odisha, Rajasthan, and the North East — we work with students from every corner of India. Most students never need to visit our Chennai office; the entire process runs on WhatsApp, video call, and email.
We’ve successfully placed students from the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Morocco, and other Middle East countries; from Nigeria, Kenya, and other African nations; and from the Philippines. If you’re an NRI, Gulf-based, or international student anywhere, Sarem processes your European university application remotely — from documentation to visa.
Our counsellors speak multiple languages — so students and parents from any region can have the full conversation in the language they’re most comfortable in. Parents often join our calls; we’ve answered many a parent’s question in their mother tongue.
Our Chennai headquarters is a detail, not a restriction. What matters is our knowledge of European admissions and our on-the-ground presence in Ireland through co-founder Prem. We serve you the same whether you’re in Chennai, Chandigarh, Dubai, Riyadh, Lagos, or Manila.
Countries across Europe — all the hotspots and beyond
Sarem is a Europe education consultancy. We started with the top hotspot destinations where opportunities are abundant — Ireland, France, Germany, Netherlands, UK — and we process applications across the rest of Europe too.

Our design dynamo and video editing specialist. A natural storyteller with a flair for visual creativity.
Works closely with students on profile evaluation, programme shortlisting, and end-to-end application support. Calm, methodical, and multilingual.
No junior staff, no hand-offs, no call centre. From your first enquiry to your post-arrival check-in, you work with Sarah, Prem, or another experienced counsellor who understands your country, your programme, and the university’s admissions team.
If you need us — we come to you.
Anywhere in Europe. If a situation demands physical presence — a university dispute, a housing crisis, a documentation emergency — we will travel to meet you. No other Indian overseas consultancy does this.
This isn’t a marketing claim. Co-founder Prem has lived in Ireland since 2014 and has personally walked the path of every complication a student can hit in Europe. When things go wrong, we don’t send you to the university’s international office or a WhatsApp group. We show up.

Students describe Sarem as honest, responsive, and hands-on. See full reviews on Google and at saremeducation.com/testimonials.
Sarem guided me end-to-end for my MSc at DCU. The SOP help was precise, they secured a fee reduction scholarship, and the visa was approved first time. Prem actually checked in on me after arrival in Dublin.
Every other consultancy pushed me toward UK or Canada. Sarem actually understood France — they walked me through Campus France, Paris-Saclay application, and Charpak. Got 50% tuition waiver. Study France team was outstanding.
I’m based in Dubai and was worried a Chennai consultancy couldn’t help me. Sarah and team handled everything remotely — APS certificate for Germany, VFS visa from UAE, TU Munich admission. Never needed to visit Chennai. DAAD-funded now.
My daughter had a housing emergency in Dublin in her first semester. Prem met her in person within 48 hours and helped resolve it with the accommodation provider. That kind of support doesn’t exist elsewhere.
