India-based education consultancy · Mumbai, India · Founded Unknown

KC Overseas is a Mumbai-based education consultancy placing students in 50+ countries. Like most Indian consultancies, KC is an education agent — not a licensed immigration advisor.

A-WAY wins on regulatory credibility. CICC and MARA licensing is rare in India and legally required to give advice on Canadian and Australian immigration. If you only need admission, KC is fine. If you need PR or visa strategy, use a licensed consultant.
