About

Your Gateway to Studying Abroad!

Our Mission

At StudyAbroad.co.za, we firmly embrace the transformative power of education. Our core mission revolves around providing accessible international study experiences for students in South Africa, partnering with universities in the UK, USA, Canada, Australia and Mauritius.

Who We Are:

Since our establishment in 2022, we have been more than just a company; we are a close-knit team passionate about fostering cross-cultural education. Our founder Michael Kay set out to shake up the hackneyed way that things are done when it comes to sending South Africans to study overseas.

StudyAbroad.co.za is a fast-growing study abroad agency based in Rivonia, Johannesburg and London, UK, helping students study in the United Kingdom and Mauritius. Our commitment to excellence, personalised service, and a genuine desire to empower students sets us apart.

What We Do:

As your reliable South African study abroad agency, we specialise in expertly guiding self-funded students through their educational journeys to the United Kingdom and Mauritius. (Note: this is very important, the students we work with have their own funding, it is a common misconception that there is a lot of funding to study in the UK – which is not the case!).

We simplify the study abroad process by assisting with applications, study visas, paperwork, and uncertainties, ensuring a smooth journey. This includes advice on accommodation and flights. Our role extends to providing valuable insights into academic institutions and conducting virtual meetings for seamless interaction – no matter where in Southern Africa you are. We work with students from

  • South Africa
  • Swaziland
  • Lesotho
  • Zimbabwe
  • Mozambique
  • Botswana
  • Nigeria
  • Kenya
  • Namibia

Transform your study abroad dreams into reality

  • Expert Guidance: Our team of seasoned professionals boasts over 10 years of international education experience, having lived and studied in both SA and the UK. We know the ins and outs and are here to guide you every step of the way.
  • Personalised Support: We take pride in offering personalised support to each student. Your dreams are unique, and so is our approach to helping you achieve them.
  • Global Network: We have strong ties with leading universities in the UK, USA, Canada, Australia and Mauritius, giving you access to a wide range of academic opportunities. Mauritius is particularly appealing for South Africans wanting to study medicine overseas at an affordable cost.

Message from our founder

Hi there,

I’m Michael Kay, founder of Study Abroad SA. With over a decade of experience living, studying, and working in the United Kingdom, I’ve walked the path you’re about to take. I completed my MBA at Oxford Brookes University, and the journey was filled with excitement and challenges. Inspired by my own experiences, I started Study Abroad SA to help other South Africans achieve their dreams of studying overseas with ease and confidence.

Our students attain internationally accredited degrees, acquiring global life skills and experiences, confidence, and a unique experience. Let’s turn your dreams of studying abroad into reality together!
