About Republic

Honest guidance, since 2009.

For more than 17 years we have helped Nepali students choose the right course, the right university and the right country, and told them the truth about their chances.

Our story.Started in Kathmandu.

Republic Educational Consultancy was founded in 2009 in Kathmandu to give Nepali students something that was hard to find: study-abroad advice without pressure or false promises.

Today our team in Bagbazar guides students to eight countries: the UK, Canada, Germany, South Korea, Sweden, Finland, the USA and Australia. Every counselling session is free, and parents are always welcome.

“Building a business is one thing, but building trust is an entirely different responsibility.”

Mani Gyawali, Founder and CEO

Mission, vision and goals.In Mani Gyawali’s words.

Our mission

To guide students towards the right education and career opportunities through transparent counselling, ethical practices and accurate information. We aim to help every student make informed decisions based on their abilities, ambitions and long-term goals, not just their preferred destination.

Our vision

To build a consultancy that is remembered not for the number of students it sends abroad, but for the lives it positively influences.

We envision Republic as an institution where integrity is never compromised, trust is earned through actions, and students and families feel confident about the decisions they make.

Our goals

To raise the standard of educational consulting. We stay informed about changing policies, keep admission practices responsible, strengthen institutional relationships, and build a team that puts students’ futures before short-term business gains.

We want to build something that lasts beyond individuals, beyond profits and beyond generations.

The guy who audits your Korea dreams.

You bring the dream; he brings the checklist, the fine print and the questions nobody else wants to ask. A documentation nerd and a reality checker.
