StudyQR – The Global Bridge Between Counselors and Universities
The first counselor-centered education platform in the MENA region, connecting schools and global universities through summits, fairs, training, and year-round collaboration.
What Is StudyQR?
StudyQR is a global education platform dedicated to building strong connections between school counselors, international universities, and education service providers. We focus on the people who guide student decisions every day — counselors — and we empower them with training, resources, and direct access to universities.
Unlike traditional fairs, StudyQR creates a long-term ecosystem:
Counselors become educated, certified, and recognized.
Universities gain access to trained, trusted professionals.
Schools receive accurate guidance for students and parents.
Students make better choices with reliable information.
10+ Years of International Experience
StudyQR is founded by Abdullah Sabbagh and Mohammad Al-Masri, two education experts with more than 10 years of international experience. StudyQR is the new name after rebranding ISTL into a global platform.
