Liza Weale, Founder of Gatehouse Admissions, Consultant.

A former Bain & Company consultant and an MIT Sloan graduate, Liza brings discipline, logic, and curiosity to her consulting, enabling hundreds of success stories at schools such as Harvard, Stanford, UPenn Wharton, Northwestern Kellogg, and MIT Sloan.

Her past clients also cite Liza’s relentless commitment and positivity as critical factors in their success. Over the years of working with clients, Liza has witnessed the bar to admission at the very top schools continually rise — even for pedigreed individuals from the best private equity, management consulting, venture capital, and tech firms.

She founded Gatehouse Admissions to support applicants in meeting this challenge. Via strong client partnerships and deep investment at every stage of the application process, Liza specializes in helping determined candidates stand out.

About Us

Above all else, Liza is always on your side

Throughout the entire application process, Liza had this uncanny ability to provide constructive criticism in the most enthusiastic way possible; her comments always motivated me to do better, and it made the work that much easier.
