Summary
Study abroad consultancy platform for Mem Connects, built with Next.js and NestJS: course matching, document uploads and application tracking.
Overview
Mem Connects supports international students applying to UK institutions. The platform was built to organise the journey from initial course exploration through application/document submission and consultant review.
Problem
Email-led onboarding created repeated follow-up, scattered documents and limited visibility into application progress. Both students and consultants needed one shared system for submissions and status updates.
My contribution
- Owned the end-to-end full-stack implementation and data structure.
- Built course/university matching and the multi-step application workflow.
- Developed secure document submission and consultant review tools.
- Implemented shared application-status visibility and responsive production UI.
Technical approach
Used NestJS/TypeScript to keep student records, application data, document submissions and status information connected. The interface separates applicant tasks from consultant operations while keeping both sides aligned around the same application record.
Engineering highlights
- Structured student intake and course matching.
- Multi-step document/application submission.
- Consultant review and student-facing status visibility.
Key features
- Course and university matching.
- Multi-step student application portal.
- Secure document upload.
- Consultant dashboard for review and verification.
- Shared application-status visibility.
Results
The live platform gives Mem Connects one system for student intake, document handling and application progress, reducing dependence on fragmented email communication.
