Nothing to tell , Customer Support is bad once they make student enrolled then no use to talking to studnet the employee who has helped me in enrollment has blocked me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about upGrad? Hello, my name is Pradumn Singh. I want to share my experience .Before enrolling in their course, they painted a rosy picture and influenced me to take up the course again and again calling me. I enrolled in March 2023 for an MBA in Logistics and Supply Chain, with 6 months of online study at that time i was working at Amazon ,Bangalore. and the remaining 1 year in Germany However, they promised provide to full assistance through my visa file and oncampus which turned out to be false. The visa team at upGrad did not review my file properly and my visa got rejected twice. I had to seek help from an agent, costing me 70k. They misled students by assuring a quick course completion and assistance with visa applications to relocate to Germany. Now, I am pursuing the course from India because i have not other choice and it lacks practical knowledge in the online sessions. Based on my experience, Me and my friends regrets getting enrolled at upGrad. I recommend exploring alternative platforms and conducting thorough research before making any decisions, as it could save you both time and money to avoid using any services from Upgard. Doing so may result in unnecessary costs and a waste of time. hashtag Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is upGrad solving and how is that benefiting you?

Their onboaring process is pretty smooth 2. Some of their professors are decent Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about upGrad? 1. Constant bombardment on email. Its almost insane how much they harass individuals. 2. Horrible course co-ordinators. Some of them felt llike school dropouts! They had coordination skills of a 2 year old and the mind of a 6 month infant. 3. Unreliable student support. Our grades were constantly botched up till the last day. Replies were generic and calls were returned with hollow assurances. 4. Some of the professors were outright horrible. When we complained about this, we were punished with more lectures from the same professor. Smart. 5. Constantly begging to us for referrals. Imagine it was so bad, I had to put it out here! No UpGrad, you have wasted my money so I won't let you do that to my friends. 6. Course material was below average to say the least. After paying in excess of INR 1.2 lakh, this is not what you expect from these 'so called' education professionals. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is upGrad solving and how is that benefiting you? Upgrad supposedly provides upskilling but I could not find much benefit from the course. Since I did not get value from the course and there is no system for feedback, I have not benefitted in any way from the course. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What ever good they did is all spoiled by the spamming they do for the rest of your life!! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about upGrad? The other name of Upgrad should be SPAMMER. They will irritate you to the core with referral messages. I get one WhatsApp message almost every day from their staff (aka referral buddy) to refer someone. I am fed up requesting them to stop harassing me with these requests, but no use. An organization that cannot manage the requests of its formal students won't be able to teach anything good.. So if you want to save yourself from getting spammed, don't enroll for any course.
