Research mentorship for international scholars

How it works from abroad

The process is the same wherever you are. You create a free account, choose a fixed-price plan, pay online, fill in a short work brief and upload your files. Your order page shows a deadline clock while the team works, and you are emailed at every step. You then review the delivery and approve it or ask for corrections; two rounds are included.

Fees and payment

• Fees are fixed, published in Indian Rupees and shown before you pay. See plans and fees.
• An approximate US dollar amount is shown beside each price for reference. Your bank's exchange rate and any card fees decide the final amount in your currency.
• Payment is by card through Razorpay. A single payment is limited to ₹40,000; higher fees are paid in instalments, and work starts when the full fee has been received.
• Fees are paid in advance and are non-refundable once paid. Please read the refund and cancellation policy before ordering.

Time zones and communication

The team is based in India and works on Indian Standard Time, UTC+5:30. Communication is by email and through your order page, so you do not need to be online at the same time. If you have a fixed deadline, state it in your brief with your time zone.

Your university's rules come first

Rules on outside help with assessed work differ between countries and institutions, and some countries restrict services that complete students' assignments. PhD Research Mentor provides guidance, mentorship, editing and support only: the work you submit must be your own. Check what your university permits, and acknowledge editorial assistance where your institution requires it.

Services

All services are available to international scholars: thesis and dissertation mentoring, journal article support, editing and proofreading, formatting and referencing, methodology and data analysis guidance, and reviewer comments and response letters.
