Dione was an extremely understanding mentor who has wonderful international experience and experience coaching first generation applicants, so she can really understand your background and perspective. We worked together for only a limited number of hours but she managed to provide really thorough guidance and ended up with a HBS admission!

Sushmitha is super knowledgeable about how to make your Sloan application stand out and effectively show your voice. She also helped me in tying MIT's resources with my post-MBA goal. Her support was crucial in allowing me to secure an interview with Sloan, she's incredible!

Working with Debby was incredibly helpful. She supported me from the very beginning by creating a plan and guided me step by step through the PhD application process. Whenever I had questions, I always received a quick response. I would highly recommend Debby to anyone who truly cares about their application.

I cannot write highly enough about my experience with Machmud. He worked through my application with meticulous care and incredible professionalism. I felt encouraged and buoyed up after each call we had together. With his help, I was admitted to my dream graduate program at the University of Oxford despite being below the average in test scores and GPA. Even before I knew if I had been admitted, I was grateful for the coaching I received at Leland. Machmud taught me how to position my career experience in a way that will also prepare me for future job interviews etc. More than that, I felt more confident than ever in the experience I have and how I can present it to future employers or future academic programs. Thank you, Machmud, for believing in me! Future clients will be lucky to have you as a coach.

Alice was amazing! She helped me craft a cohesive story that showed throughout my application. The highlight of working with Alice was her thorough exploration of my career and achievements. Because we come from very different professional backgrounds, her perspective helped me tell my story in a way that would be understood by and resonate with individuals outside of my industry. I cannot recommend Alice enough!

Michael is super helpful, very clear, and he goes out of his way to ensure you're supported. 10/10 recommend!

Michael is truly a coach! He's an expert at what he does and he helps his clients shine on applications. I've previously one of the most prestigious grants in the US and was eager to apply next to the Schwarzman Scholarship. Michael not only encouraged me to do so but assisted in each part of the process. His help and guidance truly made a difference in my application. His results truly speak volumes - yes, I was accepted! As were many of his other mentees. Do yourself a favor and book a session.

London was amazing to work with. She is incredibly kind, organized and genuinely cares about your success! She is very easy-going and is available to answer your questions. She was amazing in regards to help on the Wharton and CBS app!

Sushmitha was fantastic at providing valuable insight and recommendations for the MIT Sloan interview. Our mock interview and discussion helped me refine key points for my interview. Much of our practice came up in the interview, so I felt very prepared! Highly recommend!

Maria is very insightful and straightforward with her feedback. If you want truthful and honest feedback that actually helps you improve, Maria is your person!
