“I come from an engineering background. Telling a story was like a linear equation to me, where I would narrate step 1 through 10. Not only did my consultant help me in each step of my application, but also coached me to better communicate my story so that I could be self-sufficient in my other applications. The experience of working with Ivy Advisors changed my career. Because of the coaching, I am better at advocating for myself in the workplace.”

“Initially I had hesitations about hiring anyone to help me with my school application. However, the entire process got overwhelming very quickly. Everyone around me had an opinion about what I should do or not do. Although well intentioned, they often contracted each other. Hiring a professional gave me an objective view of my profile. My consultant from Ivy Advisors worked with me one-on-one, customizing the application to who I truly was. He was also very knowledgeable about the school and their admissions criteria. My consultant was not shy about pushing me back when I got too emotional. The whole process was handled very efficiently and professionally. I felt at ease knowing that a professional was with me, taking care of one of the most important steps of my career. I have nothing but good comments.”

“For me, choosing to do an MBA was a big step—a strategic decision to take my career not only to the next level but in a completely different direction. The stakes were high, and I wasn’t willing to take chances with my future. Ivy Advisors provided insight into a process that I was not familiar with, highlighting the key elements in an application that I should try to emphasize. My advisor learned about who I was and what my goals were to help me see my own strengths and—in a truly collaborative process—craft a better application than I would have on my own.”

“I had the pleasure of working with Ivy Advisors through a one-on-one advising session during my business school application process. Our conversation was extremely useful thanks to the technical advice my consultant gave as well as the general morale boost and the encouragement she shared. My consultant was quick to recognize my diverse strengths and helped me bring those out in my resume and throughout my application. She stressed the importance of highlighting these strengths in my essays and eventual interviews, a key part of my future success. I was encouraged by the potential she saw in my application, which was strengthened by her keen, clear feedback. I would heartily recommend anyone to work with Ivy Advisors”

“I had applied on my own twice already. The third time around, I decided to get outside help to provide a more objective perspective about my application. Thank goodness I did! I was too attached to my stories. The way I told them did not necessarily highlight my talent or achievements. But Ivy Advisors coached me to see what was important for a school application. Utilizing the same set of stories but packaged differently, Ivy Advisors helped me craft a new application. This time I was accepted!”

“I recommend Ivy Advisors 100% without any reservations. The advice on my essays and interviews was invaluable. My advisor's knowledge of the intricacies of the different schools helped me position my application as best as possible. I applied to my top five and got interviews with four of them. Very responsive, friendly, and knowledgeable.”
