about us

Built by students, for students

bdesh is a free, independent guide made by Bangladeshi students who went through the US application process — and wished someone had explained it simply, in Bangla, for free.

What bdesh does

Short lessons on how fully funded admissions work, a directory of colleges that fund international students, a plan for your class, a place to build your profile and track every application, and a guide you can ask questions.

How college facts are checked

Student editors read each college's official admissions and financial-aid pages, write a short summary, and record the date they checked. Records that are not fully reviewed say so. Policies change every year, so every college page links to the official source.

What bdesh will never do

Charge students, sell data, promise admission or scholarships, or write your essays for you.

The people behind bdesh

  • Nahin Eftekhar

    Co-founder

    Co-founded bdesh to explain fully funded admissions simply and for free. Leads the lessons and the college research.

  • Foysal Planck

    Co-founder

    Builds the bdesh website, the tracker and the guide, and looks after how it all works for students.

For parents and guardians

  • bdesh is free. There are no fees and no paid 'upgrades'.
  • bdesh never asks for passports, NID numbers, bank details or documents. If anyone asks for these in bdesh's name, it isn't us.
  • Admission and funding decisions are made only by the colleges. Nobody — including bdesh — can guarantee them.
  • Your child's profile and applications are private to their account. You can review them together and download a copy from Settings.
