Full Candidacy: MBA Admissions from the Inside Out
The applicants who get in don't just have better resumes. They have better stories — and they know how to tell them. This is full-cycle MBA admissions support built around you: your background, your strengths, your "why" — not a template. We start there before we touch a single essay. From that foundation, everything else follows: school strategy, candidacy development, all essays from first idea to final draft, interview preparation, and post-submit support through waitlists and decisions. Three Poets & Quants awards. Clients from PE, IB, consulting, medicine, military, entrepreneurship, and beyond. Top 10 and Top 20 admits, frequently with scholarship. Since 2006. You're not just another applicant. This isn't just another consulting firm. Hours and investment are scoped to your situation — number of schools, deadlines, and the complexity of your candidacy. Reach out and let's talk.
What's included
The work starts before the essays. Most applicants come in wanting to know what the schools want to see. We flip that. The first question is who you are, what you've actually built, and what makes your story different from the hundreds of other accomplished people applying to the same programs. Once we have that foundation, everything else follows: school strategy, essay development, interview preparation, post-submit positioning. You'll have direct access to me throughout. Not a junior consultant, not a template. We work closely, with regular check-ins to keep momentum and honest feedback to keep the work sharp. I won't tell you your first draft is great when it isn't. I also won't let you submit something that doesn't reflect your best. I've been doing this since 2006, with applicants from every background — finance, consulting, medicine, military, entrepreneurship, family business. The through-line is always the same: the application that gets you in is the one that sounds like you, just at your best and clearest. Three Poets & Quants awards. Top 10 and Top 20 admits, frequently with scholarship. If you're serious about the outcome, let's work.
