I have spent nearly a decade working in MBA admissions, first as a member of the admissions committee at Emory University's Goizueta Business School and subsequently as an independent admissions coach. My AdCom experience gave me direct insight into how applications are evaluated, what makes a candidate compelling, and what causes even strong applicants to be passed over. That perspective informs every aspect of my coaching. As a Graduate Admissions Coach, I have worked with clients from the U.S. and abroad, guiding them through every stage of the MBA application process. My clients have earned admission to programs at Columbia, Cornell, Dartmouth, UPenn, Georgetown, UCLA, NYU, USC, Tuck, Boston University, Imperial College London, the University of Toronto, and many more.

As a Harvard graduate and Columbia Business School MBA Candidate who has built a career in financial services (investment banking and private equity), I am confident in my ability to direct prospective students to successful outcomes and to help them secure spots at their dream school. I am also on a full-tuition scholarship at CBS and would be happy to help students with securing financial support for their degree programs.

I am a JD / MBA candidate at Harvard Business School and Harvard Law School. I have 5 years of professional experience in high finance.

I've guided numerous clients through the MBA application process, helping them craft compelling narratives and strategic applications that stand out.

As a Wharton MBA graduate who came from a non-traditional background and a non-target undergraduate school, I know what it takes to break into top MBA programs without the typical resume. I didn’t have a brand-name employer or Ivy League degree—and I still earned a spot at one of the world’s most competitive business schools. That journey taught me how to craft a powerful narrative, highlight unconventional strengths, and position unique experiences as assets. I’ve also coached dozens of high school students through college essays, helping them tell authentic, compelling stories that get results. I bring that same insight, structure, and empathy to MBA applicants—especially those who don’t fit the traditional mold but have so much to offer.

Spent five years career coaching at NYU Stern supporting hundreds of students determine and execute their job search strategies. Students I coached have landed everywhere from Netflix and Chobani to Electronic Arts, Tory Burch and The Carlyle Group

Hi there! My name is George Lankas, Stanford GSB class of 2027. I was fortunate enough to receive acceptances to 3 top MBA programs (GSB, Wharton, and Tuck). I ran a tutoring company as a student at Georgetown University, where I helped classmates ace Econ classes and get past writer’s block on essay. I also offer career coaching – after transitioning from an IB oriented role to client facing Private Banking, I know how tricky the pivot can be! I’m passionate about helping people get into their dream MBA program or get their dream job – I want to be a partner and asset throughout your process to ensure you can make your goals become a reality.

I have successfully navigated the process at a high level and understand what it takes to stand out, especially from a non-traditional background. I earned admission into top MBA programs including the University of Chicago Booth School of Business, Darden School of Business, Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University, Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth College, Yale School of Management at Yale University, and the Kelley School of Business - 3 of which were full tuition scholarships. In total, I secured over $600,000 in MBA scholarships. For someone who did not come from a traditional background, these results required clear positioning, compelling storytelling, and a well executed application strategy. Beyond my own results, I bring a unique perspective as both an education business owner. As the founder of a multi six figure tutoring company and a coach for the GRE, GMAT, and Executive Assessment, I understand how to break down complex processes, identify gaps, and help candidates improve quickly. I have worked across engineering, consulting, entrepreneurship, and social impact, which allows me to help applicants, especially those from technical or non traditional backgrounds, translate their experiences into narratives that resonate with admissions committees. My approach is structured, honest, and results driven, with a focus on helping you present the strongest version of your story.
