MacQuil.com was created in 2001 to help students from around the world who were interested in studying abroad and/or going to college in the USA.
Back then, Google was not as popular, and information regarding admissions, visas, or international universities was limited and scattered all over the place.
People would need to contact “a friend of a friend who studied in X country” for advice. So, MacQuil.com was created to solve this problem by compiling resources and articles to help anyone who wanted to study abroad or apply to universities in other countries.
Decades later MacQuil.com continues to provide guidance and resources on global education opportunities and cultural travel with the mission to bring people together through knowledge, learning experiences, and travel adventures.
