Yu has helped clients get into these schools:

For the 2024–2025 admissions season, I’ve helped 50+ mentees gain admission to top-tier master’s programs, including Yale M2M (4), Yale AM (3), MIT MFin (2), Columbia MSAFA (7), UChicago Booth MiF (15), Cornell AEM (11), and more. I craft resumes admissions committees want to read, tailor every detail to each school’s priorities, and turn your background into a compelling hero’s journey — even if your GPA is low or your internship experience is limited. With the right narrative, I’ve guided candidates from underdog to admit. If you’re applying this year, I offer a free 15-minute intro call to get you started.

About Yu

I’m Effy, a financial analyst (Plus international on F1 visa) turned coach who has helped over 70 students land top jobs and deferred MBA offers at schools like HBS, Wharton, and Booth. I started with no clear path and built my future through relentless learning, rejection, and the support of great mentors. Now I pay it forward. I know what it feels like to doubt yourself, but I also know how to turn that doubt into results. Let's build your story and nail your application together!

Why do I coach?

I coach because I know what imposter syndrome feels like. I’ve been there—unsure, overwhelmed, and questioning if I was good enough. You are. You deserve every opportunity you're aiming for. I’ve helped 70+ students land top jobs and deferred MBA offers, not by changing who they are, but by showing them how to own it. Let’s talk. I’m here to help you realize what’s already yours.
