Working with MSM Unify gives you the luxury of choice: you can be a GMO agent, Unify agent, or both a GMO and Unify agent.
We have a growing pool of partner institutions, and agents who work with us can have access to these institutions and their programs. To partner with an institution, agents have to go through the due diligence process of each institution separately and MSM Unify will help in making this process happen on one platform.
Your versatile dashboard shows you the latest updates on your due diligence process. MSM Unify makes sure that you are the first to know of your AEF status, such as if it has been received, approved, or if additional documents are required.
Recruiting through MSM Unify gives you the convenience of a standardized application process. Under “Application,” choose a student and select the institution you wish to make an application for. There, you will find an automatically generated application form.
Your versatile dashboard shows you the latest updates on your total, accepted, and rejected applications. For a more detailed status report, clicking “Application” will take you to your complete list of applications. Find the application in question and check its status under the “Status” column.
By showing you the status of your students’ applications, you can determine whether the requirements were complied. You can only complete an application if the necessary information and documents have been uploaded through the portal. Through proper coordination with students, you can help bridge them to their target institution.
The policy for the delay in payment varies from institution to institution. Please get in touch with the Support Team of the institution.
The application fee is non-refundable.
Tuition refunds due to visa or study permit rejections depend on the intended institution of study. To find out more about the refund policy, use MSM Unify to get in touch with an institution representative.
In the MSM Unify portal under the Students section, you will see a list of all students. Beside their name, you can find an option to edit their information.
Going to the “Application” section will show you the complete list of applications you have made on the portal. Clicking on a student’s application will give you the option to add, edit, or delete information or any uploaded documents. Only applications that have not been completed and submitted can be edited to avoid confusion from data inaccuracies.
Under the “Eligibility Test,” you can input a student’s grades and English proficiency test results to confirm if their scores meet their desired program’s requirements. You will also be given the option to browse programs and institutions where their grades would be qualified.
We represent our partner institutions with dedicated and professional staff on the ground. Our marketing and admissions teams work with agents in the same way that institution staff do: training, supporting, and motivating them. The difference is we are in-country every day, making us accessible to agents and their counselors.
Our model of institution support involves agent management, scrupulously screening, supporting, and setting up partner agents to meet targets. We are present full-time, speaking their language and working in their time zones.
As part of our financial transparency, GMO agents are direct and recognized agents of a higher education institution (HEI) and are paid directly by them.
Diversifying their campus is of growing importance to HEIs. We have built a strong presence in 17 countries and are growing, including Bangladesh, Brazil, Colombia, Ghana, India, Kenya, Mexico, Morocco, Nepal, Nigeria, Pakistan, Peru, Philippines, Rwanda, Senegal, Sri Lanka, Turkey, and Vietnam. We are rapidly expanding to 50 countries in the near future. This enables us to present a huge pool of prospects to our partner institutions and convert them into enrollment numbers.
A dedicated team for each institution – the only one that will represent them and get trained in their branding – will mobilize their agent network and equip them with high-quality marketing collateral, social media creatives, visibility through school fairs and events, and everything they need to reach the market.
We also take over routine processes to free up our partner’s time and resources: pre-screen all applications offshore within 24 hours, facilitate offer letters, conduct pre-departure briefings for students and their parents, and vet agent invoices to ensure accuracy. Our commitment goes beyond all these, providing services such as full concierge service for partners’ in-country visits, culture familiarization visits for HEI staff, and more.
We’re your partner in growth, helping expand your agency business through global exposure and ongoing support for painful, time-consuming functions like institution invoicing.
The “No Sub-Agent Zone” in our GMO model is the only platform today that allows you to be a direct and recognized agent of a college or university and get paid directly by them.
Join a steadily growing network of at least 4,500 MSM affiliate agents in countries on nearly every continent, from India and the Indian subcontinent to Southeast Asia to Africa and Latin America.
Interested agents’ requirements include but are not limited to the AEF, their business license, a picture of their office, reference and background check forms, a marketing plan for the institution, an agent authorization email, and agent banking information. The institution will provide agents with a certificate and agent agreement or contract once two students are registered successfully on campus.
Before an agent is to be accepted, they undergo a systematic evaluation process that includes cross-checking with the references they provided. This involves two references that reflect their abilities and experience with other institutions prior to working with us.
