Independent admissions and visa counsel for Ghanaian students.

Undergraduate and master’s applications. Scholarship strategy. Student-visa files for the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and Europe. You pay the firm. The university does not.

The file is the product. Applications are not a mood.

How an engagement works

  1. 01

    Consult

    We read the academic record, the budget, and the destination. If the case is weak, we say so before you pay.

  2. 02

    Processing

    $1,000 opens school selection, applications, scholarship strategy, and document preparation.

  3. 03

    Decisions

    Offers, funding letters, and a visa file that matches what the school already knows about you.

  4. 04

    After visa

    $2,500 is due after visa approval. Interview prep and pre-departure sit in that stretch.

Fees, on the first scroll

To begin

$1,000

About GH₵11,000

Processing. School shortlist, applications, scholarship strategy, and the document set. Paid before work starts.

After visa approval

$2,500

About GH₵27,500

Due when the visa is granted. Not before. We do not invoice hope.

Fees are billed in US dollars. Cedi figures are indicative at GH₵11 to the dollar (August 2026). We confirm the amount on the day you pay, by bank transfer or MTN MoMo. The engagement letter is the contract.

The useful counsel is the one that will tell a family not to apply. Western Shores is being built to do that work, then the filing.

Questions families actually ask

Direct answers, left in the open.

Do you charge students, or do universities pay you?

You pay us. That is the point. Many Ghana agencies are paid by partner universities, which quietly shapes the shortlist. Western Shores is an independent firm. The school list is built around your file, budget, and visa case, not a commission schedule.

Can you guarantee a visa?

No. Consular officers and immigration authorities decide. We prepare a complete, consistent file and rehearse the interview. Anyone who sells a guaranteed visa is selling something they cannot deliver.

Who is this for?

Ghanaian students applying for undergraduate or master’s study in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, or Europe, and the parents funding that move. If the academic record, funds, or timeline cannot support a serious application, we will say so in the first consult.

Begin

Book a consult. WhatsApp if you already know the destination.

Three short steps. We reply with a read of the file, not a brochure. Office: [Accra office].

Intake

If the case is ready, we should already be filing.

Fall intakes close earlier than most families expect. A consult this week is cheaper than a rushed January.
