    @mcg143 I did consult personally with sir mj of KOKOS but that's just one time. all other queries/concerns, we talk about it over email or sms na kasi i cannot be personally available palagi. but good thing is they're always available to send you a reply esp urgent matters. very proactive too, sometimes I do not make any follow up then I can only remember when sir mj sends me a message which I find really helpful.

    @IntApp I already found KOKOS through the Tarp na naka post sa Angeles. I spoke to Jermy over the phone and he is very knowledgeable enough in discussing things about my qualification and application process. All my concerns were properly answered and he is very enthusiast in answering all my queries at hindi sya nagmamadali di gaya ng ibang agency na nakita ko din sa pampanga. Though I dont have an IELTS yet pero I decided to take it first before doing an application. Though na advise naman ako na pwede na akong magapply ng school kahit wala pang IELTS pero I still want to secure an IELTS first bago mag apply.

    Hello @heyitsjovy, better if you could try to talk to sir jermy para may comparison ka sa ibang agent. I think mas comfortable ako sa kanya. I am planning to take up bachelor of nursing at Victoria University since 6.5 lang ielts requirement. If I will get 7.0 across, I will go for Deakin University.

    Hi @IntApp , free consultation din po sila pero once decided to let them process your docs, dun na po ako nagbayad. 60k yung processing nila pero good thing is they will still assist you once nasa AU ka na. Yung sa tito ng friend ko until they got yung citizenship, Firstec helped them. Opo, praying for the positive result soon. Thanks po. Magpaprocess pa lang po kayo?

    @Lyka wow congratulations! Yes I am waiting nalang sa result ng PTE ko. Ahh, with KOKOS kasi I am not bound to pay anything starting from consultation to visa documentations. Tsaka nameet ko din yung migration lawyers nila dito sa pinas last month :) you might want to consider @julypearl si KOKOS para free naman

    hi guys, share ko lang, if meron mga may plans on taking MBA, take advantage of Kaplan's scholarship for this year and early next year's intake. I was granted with 10% scholarship with the help of KOKOS International. Malaking savings din siya :) I am now in the process of submitting all visa docs and hopefully get into the Nov 2017 intake!

    @mcg143 me & my friends also used to communicate with IDP and ibang consulting agency but had the same experiences. even when nakausap na ako ng counselor but pag nagpunta ako without an appointment, di nila ako nilalabas or tagal mareplyan. kaya nirefer nila ako to kokos nung dun na sila naapprove ng mga visa nila yun mga friends ko
