If you are reading this review, then you are probably weighing the cost-benefit analysis of hiring an admissions consultant like I was - thinking "How did we arrive at a world where hiring people to help us get into school is so common?".

Right off the bat, I will say that you have come to the right place. If you are considering seeking help on your business school applications, then rest assured that these review are legitimate. These clients, like myself, have asked the same slew of questions you have, such as: Should I include that trophy I won in high school on my app?; Does XYZ school care that I have 500 followers on twitter?; Should I use Arial or Calibri font on my resume?; Will they even like me???.

The folks at Admissionado reassuringly and firmly addressed all of my questions, never once making me feel silly for asking. They have institutional knowledge and passion to find out who you are, what you want, and how to express that in the best way possible to your target schools.

Being that I do not have any family members or friends who have taken on an MBA path, I chose the Deluxe Package so that I could receive guidance, start to finish, from Admissionado's great team. I then chose 2 schools with the applications the most different from each other so I could apply what Admissionado taught me to other target schools on my own.

My background and career path are non-traditional, coming from the public sector and looking to transition to the gaming industry, but Liz Eavey with Admissionado had no problem helping me craft a compelling, fun, and unique story that was extremely successful. With their help, I was admitted to 4 of my 5 schools and received over $400,000 in fellowship offers.

You can find more of the nitty gritty on Admissionado's process from other reviews, but I will add that Liz was crucial to my success. She helped me structure my application timeline, determine what was worth taking up the valuable 300 word maximum essay real-estate, and reassured me whenever imposter syndrome crept up. She is extremely smart and knows how to get to the heart of the matter, especially when it comes to connecting your experience with your career goals.

Admissionado isn't just a company - they are group of passionate, empathetic, intelligent individuals looking to help other people attaint their goals and asperations.

Thank you Liz and thank you Admissinoado!

I enjoyed the process working with Liz when I started the initial free one-hour review. Initially, I had not planned on actually getting the paid service but after doing the one-hour call and getting the tailored feedback to my experience and how I could improve my profile for my top preferred programs, I decided to pay for the deluxe package with two schools. I also liked the fact that Admissionado paired me with someone who had a focus on my career interests post-MBA and that Liz was experienced not only in Entertainment but also in the entrepreneurial/startup space which helped me think strategically about the companies/opportunities I should be referencing in my essays. Liz was extremely timely and supportive in the process even while managing her own full-time job and going through a childbirth! From the resume review, to the multiple essay edits and feedback sessions, as well as conducting mock interviews to prepare me for my interviews, I definitely feel that the additional support put me over the edge to strengthen my application and get my top choice at UCLA Anderson.
