Executive MBA Admissions Coaches

I'm Oren Margolis, a former Senior Associate Director of MBA Admissions at NYU Stern, where I evaluated thousands of applications and represented the school globally. Now, I leverage that experience to help applicants navigate the MBA admissions process with clarity and confidence. My approach is straightforward and supportive, focusing on bringing out your genuine story rather than fitting you into a mold. I recognize that the admissions process is.... a lot - I'll push you to make sure you're reaching your full potential and leaving nothing off the table, while also coaching through the inherent stress and anxiety that comes along with the process. Whether you're a traditional applicant or come from a non-traditional background, I provide strategic guidance tailored to your unique path. My clients have gained admission to top Full-time, Part-time, and Executive MBA programs at schools including Harvard, Wharton, Booth, Kellogg, MIT Sloan, Fuqua, Darden, Columbia, Yale, Anderson, Marshall, Haas, Tuck, and Stern. I have a particular interest in working with LGBTQ applicants and also enjoy working with underrepresented groups and "nontraditional” applicants.

Coaching has always been a big passion of mine - while in business school, I was the VP of Prospective Students for the Armed Forces Association as well as a member of Service2School, a non-profit that provides guidance and mentorship for transitioning service members looking to pursue advanced degrees. I'm also a alumni interviewer for Ross. Over the past 5 years, I've coached and prepped over 100+ people on MBA applications with a high rate of success. I know what adcoms are looking for, so let me help you get there!

Candidates, especially ones from common or overpopulated demographics, need to stand out. We will work together so that you are not a one-dimensional candidate in the eyes of the Admissions Committee but one who adds something special to the entering cohort. I have been interviewing candidates as a Kellogg alum since 1993. I recruited Executive MBA candidates for Kellogg throughout Latin America and ran information sessions on the fulltime program while a Kellogg director. Later, I worked several years at two of the larger players in the MBA admissions consulting industry before deciding to offer the same services independently. Clients love my authenticity, enthusiasm, and sense of humor. But while a confessed porphyrophile, I have also helped clients get into a wide range of Top Twenty programs, including the M7.

After my own journey applying and interviewing for MBAs, from rejections to full-time offers with scholarships, I can personally attest to the challenges, frustrations, and difficulties in determining the right school and executing to receive an offer. I visited 12 business schools in 5 countries in the US, Europe, and Asia in my own research and decision-making process. I've helped numerous applicants on essays, school strategy, narrative development, overall applications, etc. Would be pleased to share learnings and support other applicants in their own trajectories towards success. I've studied in 7 universities and lived in 9 countries, so I uniquely understand different education systems across borders.

I am a Harvard Business School graduate and have helped over ten students through their application journey over the past couple years.
