Testimonials Highlights

"When I began looking at business schools, I figured I would get into maybe 1 or 2. I was so nervous about my chances, that I applied to 12 programs in all. On the recommendation of a friend of mine, I asked Walter for comprehensive help and followed his advice for nearly 10 months while I developed my applications. When I received my first Acceptance Letter from NYU Stern, I was happy enough, because at least I was in at one good school....BUT THEN the other decision letters started coming from INSEAD, Columbia, London Business School, Goizueta, Oxford, Stanford, Kellogg, IESE and finally...my Number 1 Choice....HARVARD!

ACCEPTED AT 10 SCHOOLS!! I had no idea this was even possible. I am still in shock."

* Most schools have 3 to 4 required essays and a Multi-School package is based on that averaging assumption. Where a school has 5, 6 or 8 essays, or extraordinarily long ones, a fee adjustment may be necessary due to the added work that may be requested by the client. This policy also covers any extra assistance that may be requested outside the scope of required essays.

** Advanced Interview Guidance is a separate billing item covered under the high-impact consultation, based on a case-by-case assessment. For example, some people might require 1 hour of assistance whereas others might need 5 or 7 hours. There is no way to know that number ahead of time, so hours of commitment are billed separately and only as needed by the client.
