Every option that fits your grades and budget appears on the plan — including institutions that pay us nothing.
About EdgeBox
A small team of former admissions officers and counsellors who got tired of watching students pick universities from brochures.
Our story
Started at a mamak table in 2021. Still arguing about shortlists.
EdgeBox Education Advisory Sdn. Bhd. was founded in Subang Jaya by three people who had spent a decade inside university admissions departments. We had watched too many capable students land in the wrong course because the loudest marketing won — and we knew where the good scholarships were actually hiding.
Today a team of eleven counsellors places several hundred students each year into Malaysian campuses and universities across the UK, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand. We have stayed deliberately small: every family works with one named counsellor from first call to orientation week.
The numbers
What four years of stubbornness looks like

Our promise
Four things every family can hold us to
Costs in full, up front.
Resource fees, lab fees, hostel deposits, EMGS charges — if it will appear on an invoice later, it appears on our plan first.
We say "don't" when we mean it.
If a course, campus or country is a poor fit for your situation, we will tell you directly — even when it costs us a placement.
Free means free.
No registration fees, no document fees, no "premium tiers". If anyone bills you in our name, report it to us the same day.
