One assessment and upgrade policy
With each purchase, the student will receive a single, complete career assessment. By proceeding with the purchase, the user explicitly acknowledges and agrees that this assessment is provided as a one-time service. Suppose the user, due to their inability, negligence, failure to utilize the assessment properly, or any other reason beyond TALASH’s control, fails to benefit from or complete the assessment. In that case, TALASH shall bear no liability for any resulting loss, inconvenience, or dissatisfaction. The responsibility for making full and proper use of the assessment rests solely with the user, and no refunds, replacements, or compensations shall be provided under such circumstances.
Additionally, access to career guides, university databases, program details, and other exclusive resources will be granted for a limited duration as specified in the purchased package. Once the duration expires, the user will no longer have access to these resources. If a user initially purchases a standard package and later upgrades to a higher package within the validity period of the original package, the career assessment will not be reissued. The upgrade will only include the additional benefits outlined in the upgraded package, such as a career counseling session, without any reassessment or reallocation of previously granted services.
TALASH provides comprehensive and well-curated information on over 200 universities and their top academic programs to support your career exploration and educational planning. These details are carefully selected to ensure relevance, quality, and usefulness, especially for Pakistani students navigating their higher education choices.
However, we encourage all students to treat this information as a foundational guide. Final program offerings, eligibility criteria, fee structures, and admission policies may vary by year and institution. For a more tailored and up-to-date selection aligned with your personal preferences, location, and career goals, we strongly recommend:
