Ryan is super nice and responsible. He taught me a lot! Highly highly highly recommended!

Emily was everything I needed in a coach. She is a knowledgeable, direct and passionate coach and has been a supportive friend through the grueling application process. Completing my GRE in July left me with very little time before Round 1 deadlines. I had no idea which schools were realistic targets or if I could build a strong application on such a tight timeline, so I knew I needed a coach. As I interviewed prospective coaches, most seemed helpful but gave me the impression I should lower my expectations. Emily was different. From our first conversation, she was fully supportive of my goals and ready to get to work. She was realistic about timelines but optimistic about outcomes, pushing me to refine my school list strategically so we could focus our efforts where they mattered most. Mindful of my budget, she prioritized my reach schools while empowering me to tackle other applications independently once I was confident in my story. Emily took the time to truly understand my background, values, strengths, and goals. She helped me articulate my story in a way that highlighted my strengths and charted a clear path from my past experiences through my MBA to my future goals. She developed a tailored strategy for each school and connected me with current students and alumni to inform my decisions. When doubts crept in during the process, Emily was a constant source of encouragement, frequently pointing out strengths in my background I'd completely overlooked and helping me see the value I could bring to each program. I'm especially grateful for the patient way she helped refine my essays. Her suggestions helped me cut the fluff while preserving my voice and vision. She was equally invaluable in interview prep, helping me identify areas for improvement and providing actionable feedback that left me feeling prepared and confident. In the end, I was admitted to every program I applied to, a feat I could not have accomplished without her tireless support. I cannot recommend Emily enough. If you're fortunate enough to work with her, she will believe in you, push you, and give you the tools and support you need to have the best shot at your goals.​

I came to Cameilla for help with my CS master's program applications. It was very last minute (1 week before the deadline), but she was extremely helpful in getting helping prioritize applications and find programs that matched my skills. Before meeting with her, I did not have plans to apply to CMU because of its competitiveness, but after working with her I did and was accepted!

He will get you where you want to be. Incredibly encouraging guy that will go out of his way to technically prep you and behaviorally prep you in the best way possible. I switched to Sales and Trading halfway through and he had everything for even that. If I could give six stars I would.

I contacted Melissa just a few days before the priority deadline for NYU Law School, and she was incredibly accommodating. In the short time we had, she helped me completely revamp my personal statement as well as an additional essay for a first-generation scholarship (which were initially not anywhere close to where they needed to be). Melissa was kind, easy to reach, and, most importantly, knew how to develop and transform even the roughest ideas into a compelling narrative. I truly don’t think I would have been admitted to NYU without her help.

Working with Erika was excellent! She provided incredibly detailed, honest feedback and had super quick turnaround times, even while traveling. She didn't just tell me what to fix - she explained why and gave specific suggestions to make my writing more authentic and compelling. Her attention to detail was impressive, catching everything from small inconsistencies to bigger structural issues. She was flexible with timing and genuinely invested in helping me succeed. After multiple rounds of thoughtful edits, I got accepted to my program! If you want someone who will give you real, actionable feedback and help you craft strong applications, I highly recommend Erika.

Scott played a massive role in my successful CBS application. He provided me with detailed feedback and helped me rework my application materials to give me the best possible application two weeks before the deadline. Scott not only helped me throughout the application process but also helped me prepare for the interview as well. I had a GMAT significantly below CBS's average and I credit Scott's advice and mentorship with helping me create a great application for the school.

I worked with Alyssa on my Wharton essays over New Years, and despite the holiday, she was incredibly responsive and quick with edits. She came to our sessions very prepared, having already given my application and story a lot of thought, and we were able to move forward efficiently. Highly recommend working with Alyssa!

So glad I spoke to Derek ahead of my interviews. He was particularly helpful in understanding how to effectively walk through deal overviews, was highly responsive and down to earth, and gave pointed, actionable advice that gave me the confidence I needed to go do well in my interviews.
