Michael joined the event a full ten minutes early, setting a professional and welcoming tone from the outset. He walked us through each component of the application — from the leadership essay to the CV — with remarkable attention to detail. His responses to our questions weren’t surface-level; instead, he offered nuanced, thoughtful insights that helped us truly understand what the Schwarzman application demands and how to tailor our materials accordingly. What stood out was how he didn’t just highlight successful applications but also unpacked why certain strong candidates were unsuccessful — a perspective rarely offered but immensely valuable. He was friendly, approachable, and ensured everything ran smoothly and on time.

I really liked how she entertained each question and wasn’t in a rush to end the session. It was very helpful, thank you Jennifer!!

Abdi was phenomenal in helping me prep for my deferred enrollment applications. He was really transparent in regards to my positioning and the timeline I had in mind and help me develop a plan of action that would best position myself. With his expertise in helping applicants get into their top schools he provided a lot of anecdotal insight on what best position applicants to be accepted. He truly created a tailored application experience for me that geared into my strengths and brought a lot of life to my essays and resume experience, which helped me uncover a lot that I would've missed. I'm extremely grateful to have worked with him and would recommend anyone who is looking for a coach that is really going to put their all into ensuring you have the highest chances of getting into the school of your dreams to work with Abdi.

Indrani was kind to everyone and very helpful.

I feel more confident starting my essays after this session.

I really enjoyed M’s class in the morning on my commute to work. Her lesson was super helpful for someone who can be a little scatterbrained with a bunch of ideas and narrowed my focus. She also responds very quickly to any direct messages. Thank you!

I found Loubna to be an exceptional admissions consultant. She was instrumental in helping me better understand my career story, articulating why a dual-degree MBA was important at this stage of my life, and ultimately achieving my dream of being accepted into the only top program that I applied to — Kellogg’s MMM program at Northwestern University. The stakes were extremely high since I only applied to one school but with Loubna’s help, we got it done. From the very beginning, Loubna’s dedication to my application journey was evident. We shared a number of phone calls and video meetings to ensure we were always on the same page. She spent meaningful time understanding my background, my motivations and my career goals. She was (and still is) my biggest champion throughout the entire process. Her insights were invaluable as I navigated the complex and competitive world of business school admissions, especially since I don’t come from a background of family or friends with experience in this area. What impressed me most about Loubna was the level of respect she included in delivering any kind of feedback and her commitment in understanding my story to highlight it in a way that resonated with admissions committees. I never felt like she was giving me a “one size fits all” service, rather she tailored her feedback and coaching style to suit my personality and individual needs. I also loved how compassionate Loubna was during an otherwise stressful process. She supported me in identifying the most compelling aspects of my background and coached me on how to effectively communicate those in my essays and interviews. Something I particularly enjoyed was my mock interview with her. We prepared together the night before my Kellogg interview and with Loubna’s help, I was able to craft a powerful narrative that showcased my strengths and set me apart from other applicants. Loubna’s expertise and professionalism are crystal clear. She was extremely responsive via text or email, always providing timely feedback and support when I needed it, and she helped me stay focused and motivated even during the most stressful times. I loved her commitment to seeing me succeed in each interaction we had, and I’m forever grateful for the role she played in helping me achieve my goal in enrolling in Kellogg’s MMM program. If you’re thinking about working with a specialized admissions consultant, I can’t recommend Loubna Bouamane highly enough. Her personalized dedication to each client coupled with her admissions expertise would benefit anyone undergoing this process. Truthfully, Loubna began as my admissions consultant but somewhere along the way, she became an older sister who I can speak to in confidence about my personal and professional endeavors and how to navigate some of the unique issues that I came across. My success is Loubna’s success, and I’m grateful for the role she played in my career journey but even more fortunate to have found a life-long mentor.
