I am not exaggerating when I say that I could not have gone through the B-school application process without Esmeralda's help. From the first consultation, I knew Esmeralda was going to be a great fit. She was attentive to my goals, had the experience that I needed to guide me, and was familiar with my target MBA programs. Through Esmeralda's guidance, I applied through the Consortium first round - something which I would not have thought to do on my own. Esmeralda pushed me to think about my goals and the best fit for my school. She was incredibly helpful in reviewing my essays and helping to make my voice and perspective stand out. I found her interview coaching very helpful as well - I went into all my interviews feeling prepared and confident. Because of my work with Esmeralda, I was accepted to my top schools with full rides at both of them. Esmeralda always responded quickly to my inquiries and was accommodating of my schedule. She even worked on the weekends with me when I needed last minute help close to my deadlines. I am incredibly grateful to Esmeralda and Accepted. I would highly recommend an MBA consultant - it was well worth the investment.

Professional & Personable

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by score report [?]

Cindy was wonderful to work with in helping me craft my B-school essays from beginning to end. She starts out the process with a brainstorming session, then sends over a detailed outline that makes it easy to write the first draft. From there on, she does a wonderful job taking as many turns of editing as needed to get the essay ready. With her help I was able to receive interviews at 4/5 out of schools I applied to and got admitted to my number 1 choice! It really made a big difference especially as I was a re-applicant and had not used a consultant the first time I applied. I would recommend her to anyone looking for help in drafting and editing outstanding essays!

Professional, Precise, Efficient & Knowledgeable

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by school email address [?]

I worked with Jamie Wright on my application to a leadership programme at a European school. Accepted has experience in having applicants admitted to this specific programme and I was glad to hear that she had previous experience of the school. Ultimately this was the main reasons why I chosen Accepted.

I took up the Accepted resume and essay flat rate packages as I had very limited time at my disposal given programme application deadlines but also my heavy work schedule.

The service I received from Jamie was 10/10 - her experience in this area is clear and she was an absolute pleasure to work with. She is precise, highly efficient and clearly knows the admissions and applications game very well. Her writing and language skills are top-notch, and she was kind enough to bend our agreed working schedule to accommodate my busy work schedule.

Her ability with which she can shorten written material is also highly impressive, and this came in very handy in (1) creating focused and to the point essays as I'm use to a policy/academic style writing which is not short in style now matter how you look at it, and (2) crafting a one-page resume given that I had a great deal of information that needed to feature.

Importantly, Jamie asked tough questions in order to get to the real story behind the story and in order to get to the experiences that are best to write about - her skills of framing ideas and stories were also very helpful during the process.

I can go on and on about the great and precise and professional service I received from Jamie, but the truth is simple; she knows her stuff and her background serves her excellently. Most importantly, it seems that she really likes and enjoys what she does - this made it a wonderful experience working with her as it not only means that my resume and essays turned out much stronger, but it feels like I've made a new friend.

I would recommend Jamie Wright any day of the week!
Thank you Jamie!

Amazing experience

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by score report [?]

I only signed up to have a consultant help with my personal statement but I am completely in awe of how well the experience has been. My consultant Cindy has over 20 years experience and knows exactly what she's doing. We've gotten to know each other extremely well and she has helped me come up with an idea on what to write about and how it will sell me as a business student. She is also quick to respond if I have any concerns or questions, which is extremely helpful considering how busy I am during the week with work. I am looking forward to continuing my work with her!

Grateful for Accepted

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by school email address [?]

I cannot thank Accepted enough for their help and guidance with my MBA applications. This company strengthened my application as a whole, especially with reworking my resume, and I have been accepted into my first choice school and dream program. My wonderful tutor took the time to listen to me and sorted through my brainstorming during the initial stages - She then helped me to understand my motive behind pursuing graduate school and how to articulate it best to others. I could not have completed my applications without Accepted - I'm forever grateful for finding them and will definitely pass their name along.

Incredibly supportive coach + mentor

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by school email address [?]

I worked with Natalie on all parts of my application (essay brainstorming, essay editing, resume, short answers, interview prep), and she was an incredibly supportive and helpful.

Her methodology for brainstorming and pulling content/themes together for essays was so helpful. She was supportive and gave me the confidence to share my full self in my apps but was also honest and direct when I needed to be pushed. She builds strong personal relationships with her clients and truly cares about their success both in MBA applications but in their careers and lives going forward.

I'm headed to Wharton in the fall on a merit-based scholarship, and Natalie played a huge part in helping me get here.

Great Consulting Experience!

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by school email address [?]

Results: Got admitted to Chicago Booth ($), NYU Stern ($), Northwestern Kellogg, London Business School, and Oxford Said in Round 2. Will be attending Booth!

I reached out to Accepted and Karin after rejected by Wharton, Yale, MIT Sloan, and CBS in Round 1. I was so desperate back then. However, Karin has been very professional, insightful, attentive, and responsive. She offered tons of useful guidance in my essays editing and following interview preps and helped me regain my confidence. I wouldn't have achieved all this without her. Thank you so much Karin for all that you has been doing and you are truly amazing!

Best advice in the appropriate moment

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by school email address [?]

My experience with Esme was absolutely superior. To make it simple I would argue this based on three key pieces of evidence from my own experience. First, Esme was straightforward in our communication. She was honest and clear, two aspects that are fundamental when you are applying to pursue your MBA at a top business school around the world. She was completely engaged on what was best for me, the candidate. Second, she provides top quality comments and advice in a very short period of time. Although we worked always with a good margin of time, this fast pace on working allowed us to make a many turns and tweaks as possible. Lastly, she was always very nice, something valuable as applying to business school might become stressful at some point. I would absolute recommend working with Esmeralda!

Thank you Jennifer

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by score report [?]

My earlier attempts at MBA applications had failed, so this time I talked to many admission consultants and based on my conversations and my friend’s past experiences, I decided to go with Jennifer. I used Jennifer’s guidance to submit my applications to four business schools in the US. I knew I had great profile on paper, but I was looking for guidance on how to craft my essays and tell my story in a compelling way. Jennifer had the unique ability to pick up the most important things from my diverse eight years of work experiences. She tries to understand you deeply and help you genuinely. I am very very satisfied with her. She has been very professional, prompt, and open in her conversations.

The biggest variable in my application

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by membership [?]

I truly believe Accepted has been the most important variable in my application, I knew very little about business school applications and in only 2 months Jamie taught me how to highlight my strengths while conveying a clear goal in the application, how to research the course and university and prepared me for the interview. Two of the questions we practiced in the mock interviews have appeared identically in the actual interview! Jamie was always so professional and when my application started falling behind schedule because of my hindrances she always returned my drafts on the same day to make sure to meet the deadline.
I honestly feel so lucky to have worked with Jamie Wright and highly recommend her to anyone who is thinking of applying to MBAs and masters.
