01 · Why it matters

A major picked under pressure is the most expensive decision a family makes.

Students switch majors, lose a year, or finish a degree they never wanted, not because they lacked ability, but because nobody sat down with them and mapped their strengths to a real path. That conversation is the whole job here.

Choosing by guesshow most families do it

  • The major is picked from what friends chose or what sounds safe
  • Grades decide the path instead of strengths and interests
  • Parents and the student argue in circles with no structure
  • The real question, "what suits this student?", is never answered

A lot of stress. A decision nobody is sure about.

Choosing with guidancehow a session works

  • A career and personality assessment shows strengths and interests
  • One-on-one sessions with the student, and with the parents
  • A shortlist of majors that fit, with the honest trade-offs of each
  • A career plan with the next steps, so the family moves as one

A clear choice, made together, that the student owns.

02 · The personality test

Before anyone talks about majors, the student takes a personality test.

Every student Nidaa works with starts with a career and personality assessment. It replaces "what do you feel like studying?" with a clear picture of how the student thinks, what energises them and the kind of work they would actually enjoy.

  • 1

    What it looks at

    Personality traits, interests, strengths and the way the student likes to work: alone or with people, hands-on or analytical, structured or creative.

  • 2

    What it's used for

    Nidaa reads the results with the student one-on-one and maps them to university majors and career paths that fit, with the honest trade-offs of each.

  • 3

    What the family gets

    A profile the student recognises as themselves, a shortlist of majors that match it, and a reason behind each one that parents can stand behind.

03 · What you get

Everything a student needs to choose well, in one place.

01

Career & personality assessment

A structured assessment of strengths, interests and personality, so the recommendation starts from who the student is, not from what is trending this year.

02

One-on-one counseling sessions

Individual sessions with the student, and sessions with the parents, so everyone leaves aligned on the same plan instead of pulling in different directions.

03

University major selection

A shortlist of majors that match the student's profile and goals, with what each one really involves and where it leads after graduation.

04

Career exploration & planning

What each career path looks like day to day, the options it opens, and the concrete steps from high school to there.

05

Educational & career support

Guidance as new decisions come up: subject choices, applications, and the moments a student doubts the plan.

06

Workshops for schools & NGOs

Career orientation workshops, classroom sessions and educational programs, run in collaboration with schools and NGOs.

04 · How it works

From "I don't know" to a plan, in four steps.

  1. 1

    Request a session

    Two minutes. A few questions so Nidaa understands the student's situation before you talk.

  2. 2

    We confirm on WhatsApp

    You hear back within 24 hours to agree on the format, the timing and the fee. No surprises.

  3. 3

    Assessment & sessions

    The student completes the career and personality assessment, then works through it with Nidaa one-on-one. Parents get their own session.

  4. 4

    A clear plan

    A shortlist of majors that fit, a career direction, and the next steps written down, so the decision stops being a debate.

07 · Questions

Before you request a session.

Who is the session for, the student or the parents?

Both. The student has their own one-on-one sessions, and the parents have a session too. The goal is that the whole family leaves aligned on the same plan.

What is the personality test?

A structured career and personality assessment the student completes before the sessions. It looks at personality traits, interests, strengths and working style. Nidaa reviews the results with the student one-on-one and uses them to build the shortlist of majors, so the recommendation starts from who the student is.

What happens in a session?

It starts with a career and personality assessment. Nidaa then works through the results with the student: strengths, interests, goals, and the majors and careers that genuinely fit. You leave with a shortlist and the next steps.

At what grade should we start?

Grade 10 and 11 give the most room to plan subjects and applications calmly. Grade 12 is not too late, and many families come then. University students considering a switch are welcome too.

Online or in person?

Tell us your preference in the form. The format is confirmed with you when Nidaa messages you back.

How much does it cost?

You get the exact fee when your session is confirmed, based on what the student needs. Nothing is paid on this page and there is no commitment in requesting a session.

Do you work with schools and NGOs?

Yes. Nidaa runs career orientation workshops, classroom sessions and educational programs in collaboration with schools and NGOs. Pick "School or organization" in the form.

University applications come faster than you think
