1. Hourly

The Hourly Service is an opportunity for the applicant to discuss anything they deem as applicable to the admissions process and their candidacy.

  • While flexible in topic, scope and purpose, you can expect answers and analysis from an expert consultant and graduate of a top MBA program.
  • The Client is encouraged to bring forth any ideas for an open and honest discussion.
  • Expect to engage in a discussion that allows you, the client, to gain a succinct view regarding the application process and acceptance into a top MBA program.

Customary topics covered:

  1. School Selection and Candidacy Evaluation – This is a discussion that centers on the appropriate MBA programs to which the candidate should apply.  “Appropriate” indicates programs that make sense for the client’s background and strengths.  Sometimes the Client “knows” what schools they want to apply to.  However a discussion is warranted to draw out exactly how well the client is suited to the culture and profile of the desired school.
  2. “MBA Acceptance Equation” - This is a discussion of the Client’s current work experience, academic performance, personal passions and philanthropic pursuits, school selection, and logical fit with their goals.  It will be positioned from an MBA admissions committee point of view.
  3. Personal Branding – This is a discussion that describes exactly who a client is as an applicant to the various business schools.  It is used to guide the client, maintains consistency and creates a “personal brand” for use when crafting essays.  While many of the components are contained in this document, this discussion directly applies your background to the selected schools.
  4. General Essay, Resume and Letter of Recommendation Review.
