What is in the PhD Full Support Package?

A year-by-year plan plus hands-on support: topic and literature setup in Year 1, journal selection, editing, formatting and submission in Year 2, and thesis formatting, similarity review and viva slides in Year 3. You choose the stages you want, and you get a written quote.

Do you write my synopsis, papers or thesis?

I am already in Year 2 or 3. Can I still join?

Yes. We start from your current stage and plan the remaining time.

Can you guarantee my paper will be accepted?

No. Journal editors and reviewers decide. We improve journal fit, formatting and clarity to give your paper its best chance.

Do you write the paper for me?

No. The research and the writing stay yours. We support journal selection, editing, formatting and the submission process.

How do you check that a journal is genuine?
