I check your admission chances, find suitable programs, secure credit transfers, and handle the paperwork. Initial call and placement within the partner network are free for you.
The process as a video
If you would rather watch than read: how I find the programme that fits you, in about a minute.
Video text:
There are hundreds of distance learning programmes, and every university naturally recommends its own. I look independently at which one is really right for you.
To do that, I check three things: whether you will be admitted, what can be credited towards your degree and whether the programme fits your goal and your everyday life. Once the choice is made, I take care of the rest: credit transfer, application, documents and enrolment, until you are enrolled.
It costs you nothing. For programmes from my partner network, the universities pay me, and the initial consultation is always free.
Two voices from Trustpilot, translated from German: “Personally, it really helped me to find a university quickly and continue my studies.” (Zana A.) “I count myself lucky to have come across Mr Ritter. The degree he recommended has truly changed my life.” (Jonathan)
If you want to talk about your degree: book a free initial consultation, 30 minutes, online.
How I work, from the first question to enrollment
Swipe through my consulting approach: step by step, without jargon.
How you find the right degree without costly detours
From admission check to enrollment. Transparent, results-oriented, and with no hidden costs.
Initial Consultation
In 30 minutes, I clarify whether a degree is realistic for you, what admission paths exist, and what can be credited. You get an honest assessment, not a sales pitch.
- Where are you professionally? What degrees, certificates, or work experience do you bring?
- What do you want to achieve? Continuing education, bachelor, master, or doctorate?
- How much time can you realistically invest per week?
- Initial assessment: Which study paths are feasible for you, even without traditional qualifications?
- Open questions: Costs, duration, recognition, compatibility with your job
University & Program Search
After the initial consultation, I search my network of 20+ partner universities and education providers worldwide. I filter the programs that truly match your situation and prepare everything clearly for you.
- Targeted search for programs matching your profile, budget, and schedule
- Comparison of study formats: distance learning, on-campus, blended learning, or online
- Transparent overview per option: costs, duration, structure, accreditation, and degree title
- Assessment of credit transfer chances: How much can you likely save?
- Personal recommendation with reasoning, not a copy-paste catalog
Credit Transfer & Enrollment
Once you have decided on a program, I handle the entire paperwork. You do not need to fill out forms, gather documents, or research deadlines.
- I contact the university and submit your documents
- Credit transfer review: work experience, prior ECTS, certificates, continuing education
- Credit transfers can save you semesters and significantly reduce tuition fees
- I clarify open questions directly with the examination office or program director
- You receive confirmation once your enrollment is complete
Study Start & Ongoing Support
You sign the contract directly with the university. From now on you are studying, but you are not alone. I remain your personal contact for as long as you need me.
- Help with organizational questions: exam registration, module selection, deadlines
- Mediation for issues with the university through my direct contacts
- Study planning tips alongside your job from my own experience with 4 degrees
- Reachable via WhatsApp, email, or video call, including evenings and weekends
- No expiration date: My support does not end after enrollment
Which meeting fits you?
Three formats, 30 minutes online each. Choose what it is about.
Initial call
We clarify whether and how your degree can work before you invest time or money. Afterwards you know which programmes are realistic and what the next step is.
Partnership meeting
For universities, education providers and companies. We talk about partnership, student placement or joint projects.
Office hours
For students in my courses and theses. Your questions, calmly and just for you.
Why work with me?
4 degrees, lecturer, examiner. I know the system from the inside.
Placement free for you
The initial call and placement within the partner network cost you nothing. I am compensated directly by the partners. You pay the regular tuition fees to the university, no more than any other student.
Credit transfers save semesters and money
Work experience, certificates, and prior ECTS can be credited. For many people, study time is shortened by 1-2 semesters. That means thousands of euros less in fees.
Direct line to the universities
When things get stuck, I call the program director or examination office directly. Personal contacts to the decision makers, no ticket system, no waiting queue.
Not tied to one university
I compare programs from my entire network and recommend what fits you. Not what earns me the highest commission.
Honest, not salesy
If a program does not fit you, I say so. If your expectation is unrealistic, I say that too. You get an honest assessment, not a sales pitch.
What I don't do
Clear boundaries are part of professional consulting.
Dr. h.c. or Hon.-Prof.
I do not consult on honorary titles. Only real academic degrees based on genuine achievement.
Purchased Titles
No title without real work. I only refer to state-recognized and accredited universities and education providers.
Dubious Providers
No questionable education providers. Every partner in my network is vetted and accredited.
Ghostwriting
I do not write theses and do not refer anyone who does. Your degree should be genuine.
Repeated Unreliability
I invest significant time in each consultation. If someone repeatedly misses appointments or is unreachable, I end the collaboration. My time belongs to those who are serious.
Questions you will likely have
Answers to the most important questions about the consultation process.
What does the consultation cost?
The initial call is free and one-time per person. If you choose a program from my partner network, the placement is also free (program search, credit transfer, application). I am compensated directly by the universities. No hidden fees.
How long does the entire process take?
From initial consultation to enrollment, it typically takes 2-4 weeks. The exact duration depends on the university and the required documents.
Can I study without traditional qualifications?
Yes, many programs in my network allow study without a traditional university entrance qualification. Work experience and existing qualifications can open the door. I assess your options in the initial consultation.
Am I obligated to enroll after the consultation?
No, the consultation is completely non-binding. You decide yourself whether and when you want to enroll. No pressure, no obligations.
In 30 minutes, you will know where you stand
Admission realistic? Credit transfers possible? Which program fits? Afterward, you will have answers, not just options.
