ARINGO | MBA Admissions Consultants

Thank you ARINGO for making INSEAD happen.😊 The team is full of super professionals and I recommend them highly. What I loved the most is their commitment to the client. Sriram decided the strategy with me that we followed in the whole process. He helped me with all- career goals, refining the essays, CV preparation, selection of schools, recommenders, and whatnot. There is no cap limit on interactions and he was always available for any random question (even after office hours- thank you😊). If you want to get into a top B school, choose ARINGO. You will not regret it.

I needed help with all parts of an MBA application to impress the top schools. Jenifer and ARINGO have been there every step of the way. The team members I worked with including Kfir, Mark, Uri, Jamal as well as Lainie and Shimri have been really patient and helpful in helping me find my stories and refine them into a cohesive application. I was admitted to Tuck and Chicago and would truly recommend them to anyone serious on making their MBA dreams come true!

I was interested in Aringo’s consulting because it is one of the few firms where it is not a one-man show. While they assign a consultant (I got the best- Jenifer), they have specialists for every task. Your application undergoes so many rounds of edit and checks that the end product is something like a diamond made from coal.

In the brainstorming session, my thoughts were refined and Jenifer directed me to career goals that suit best my candidature. I became more confident after each essay and could see the transformation. Jenifer was always available when my application needed attention or any ad hoc question. This all resulted in my admit to Warwick Business School.

I have already told my happy experience with Aringo to my friends and peers who are considering applying to B schools. I owe my successful applications to them.

Let me start with the end result. How many candidates with a 600 GMAT got into Cornell this year and received an NYU interview invite? me me me
Starting from our initial call, ARINGO seemed organized, focused, and insightful. While I had a gripping story to tell, I felt that I needed a little guidance on my chances, school chances, and of course help in conveying an insightful story. I was trying to juggle a stressful job, GMAT prep and not missing R2 application deadlines and I found faith in Rachel and Shimri and the entire ARINGO team. When we started the process, I was still working on my GMAT and we had various scenarios and school wish lists. COVID-19 restrictions and professional obligations meant I could not allocate enough time for my GMAT prep and my score did not rise. Nevertheless, working with Rachel closely, enabled me to dig deeper and demonstrate impact in my resume and essays. ARINGO states that they specialize in working with low-GMAT candidates and I am a 1st-hand witness to this. I was applying in round 2, with a very low GMAT score to 2 schools only, and knew the challenges but with the constant support of the ARINGO team, led by my fantastic consultant Rachel, helped me receive 2 interviews with Cornell and NYU and I received my Cornell Tech acceptance letter last week. Regardless of the NYU interview result, I truly cannot express enough gratitude for their genuine advice and for making a difference in my career!

While I knew I wanted to pursue MBA, I was not very familiar with the admission process. I wanted a consultant who could do justice with my story and could highlight what was needed in my MBA application. In the complimentary call with Jenifer, she was able to answer the specific questions that I had about my work profile, goals, etc.

I then filled the profile summary document and prepared the resume in the format suggested by the team. I then waited for the strategy team to come with their insights which were indeed valuable. Jenifer then helped me to narrow down my strengths and weakness. What I liked about them is that they don’t impose their thoughts. They suggest understanding if the client is able to resonate with that and then proceed. At every step, there was a team effort and they are very approachable. An admit with Cornell happened because of team Aringo. Thank you so much!

I took Aringo’s consulting services and I am happy to receive admission to the school of my choice. I appreciate the team’s promptness in answering my queries and just being there for me. I highly recommend Jenifer and loved the support from the team.

I needed help with organizing my ideas into a story that is compelling enough to impress the top schools.

Aringo helped me doing exactly what I wanted which resulted in more than what I expected. Sessions with Jen were helpful on how to make the essays and resume highlighting my achievements. Jason’s storytelling skills were strong enough to help me create essays that could paint a picture in a reader’s mind.

The result- Harvard, Wharton, Booth, Kellogg, and MIT!!!

Doing an MBA was never in my mind in my graduation days. Hence, I did not pay much attention to my extracurriculars, my early career, etc. which all play very important roles in the MBA applications. I decided to take personalized mentorship so that I can put my best foot forward.

Working with Jen has been a fantastic experience. I was juggling many tasks both in personal and professional space. However, Aringo helped me managing my time optimally. When sharing my essays, I had clear and intelligent feedbacks along with the next action items. It made the process easy for me which otherwise is very daunting. Shay helped me prepare my resume in the Oxford template. As I mentioned I did not have many stories to write, Aringo still made me carved out wonderful essays. Oxford happened because of Jen and Shay. I 100% recommend them for applications.

Coming from an over-represented application pool, my biggest concern was finding a way to get my application to stand out. Sriram immediately alleviated this concern. He is one of the most creative people I have ever had the pleasure to work with. He helped me to sort through all of my professional and extracurricular stories to choose the most impactful ones for my essays and then spent countless hours working to make those stories as interesting and exciting as possible. We worked together on 5 schools and there were countless times where I felt stuck on my essays for those schools. Each time this happened, Sriram was available to help me brainstorm new ideas or ways to improve on the essays I was unsure of. When interviews and additional essay requests came around, Sriram was immediately available to guide me through potential interview questions and help me draft additional essays. Ultimately, Sriram helped me earn two acceptances to M7 programs. I cannot thank Sriram enough for his help and would highly recommend him for your MBA application journey!

After completing my GMAT, I began reaching out to different consulting firms for initial consultations. My consultation with Jenifer was by far the most valuable, as she gave me her candid opinion of whether my school selection was realistic and also spoke to the areas of my application that needed to be improved. By the end of the call, she already had a consultant in mind for my application journey. While I worked with Sriram to apply to 5 schools, Jenifer consistently checked in to make sure we were progressing through each application and also brought in other school experts to help along the way. I cannot recommend Jenifer and the Aringo team enough. They are the perfect partner to help you along in your MBA application journey.

I was aiming for only 1 school i.e. London Business School.

When I spoke to consultants everyone told me that while we can try for LBS but you should hedge your risks and apply to more schools. I did not want to. I thought Aringo will be no different but I was wrong. Aringo told me that I have all that is needed for LBS admission. My request for speaking to the consultant before enrolment was taken positively. Jen has a proven track record of helping clients with LBS applications, so I was confident. Beyond essays, LBS application is quite tricky. Both long and short essays were guided well. Aringo also has school specialists who have a perfect eye for detail. The interview preparation was also very thorough and the resources shared with me played an instrumental role in gaining the admit. Very happy and content with Jen, Shay, Strategists at Aringo.

I didn’t know much about the MBA application process at first and was skeptical of using a consulting service at all, but now I can’t even imagine what I would have done without them! After speaking to Shimri and Jenifer at a very early stage, I was highly impressed by the honest suggestions about my candidature. My background is very different and the team explained how good this was and which aspects we can show the schools. I started working with Aringo then stopped due to a lack of time to prepare for the GMAT. Throughout the process, Aringo was flexible with my timing and although we postponed the applications by one year, we continued the work exactly where we left. I worked with Rachel very closely who is a fantastic consultant. Aringo helped me with my career goals and gave genuine feedback on my essays. Under the mentoring of Rachel, who involved the entire team, I applied to a handful of schools. I got acceptance from 5 schools and I selected LBS as my B school. I completely trust the Aringo team’s judgment and would highly recommend them to anyone who wants to chase their MBA dreams.

My cousin referred Aringo to me and I have not regretted even a single day post I signed up with them. In my discussion with Jen- my plans, my profile, and my expectations from a consultant were discussed. Aringo very much offered everything that is needed for a successful application. Also, what I liked peculiarly was that they do not have a cap limit on discussions with mentors, or ad hoc pricing for a scholarship essay, etc. When they say x school program- they mean everything associated with it.
Jen with Jason started the work on my resume. He did minute but extremely significant tweaks to my resume. The essays prepared by me were reviewed line by line. The comments helped me to combine all the pieces of my personality and bring a stronger version of my story. When working with Aringo, you not only get the feedback points from 1 person, rather your application goes through various stages of quality tests so that nothing critical is missed.

On receiving interview calls once the applications were submitted, I prepared by attending different mock sessions. I was given honest feedback and I practiced more. I am happy to tell you that I got an admit from Tepper school and I do not shy away from recommending Aringo to anyone looking for genuine help.

I still remember how lost I was when I decided to do MBA applications on my own. Preparing a stellar MBA application is a herculean task. That’s when I started reaching out and got to know about ARINGO from a friend of mine. I knew I was a little late in the game and I was worried about crafting my story and articulating why I was ready to get my MBA.
Jen gave the confidence that I have enough to pull a good application and I would not have to compromise. My consultant was super prompt. In the brainstorming session, I was happy to see the analysis that was done on my profile by the strategy team. My narrative was clear and logical. Once the essay work started, Derin helped me to bring the part of my stories that resonated with each school I was applying to. The resume and recommendation letters, everything complemented each other. I was very satisfied with my final applications.
I got into Rice University in round 2 and was very happy with the admit! I loved the way I was coached by Jen and Derin! Thank you guys😊

My result says it all. 😊 Getting into MIT is every MBA applicant’s dream and I made it to this prestigious school with the help of my superstar consultant Jenifer. I worked with Jen and Jason and they were very knowledgeable and resourceful. Right from the school selection, goals preparation, etc. until the interview, the support was constant. I just can’t thank them enough!

Before reaching out to Aringo, I was struggling to translate my professional journey into meaningful application essays. While I had some flair for writing, the MBA applications require a different approach. When I talked to Jenifer from Aringo, I spoke about my specific requirements, and she not only understood them, she guided me as well. Before enrolling, she helped me identify my unique points and how I can go about crafting my essays made me sure of proceeding with Aringo.
After the brainstorming session with Yair Ton, I was helped with my essay outlines. It helped me structure my essays well and I realized it was not the only point to worry about. They also worked on my resume and shared his insights on how to make it more impactful. Not only this, but I was also assisted on application filling and how to optimally utilize the limited space for short questions. And then came the interview preparation- my answers were polished and the feedbacks were very crisp.
All the hard work paid off when I got my admission offer from Ross with a USD 20,000 scholarship. Jen and Aringo are experts in understanding your needs and driving you through awesome results. They are the BEST!

I was very much part of the overrepresented pool (male, Asian, Engineer, etc.) and thought that I would not have anything unique to tell but in my first call with Jen- she was able to convince me otherwise. And she was not generic about it; she had specific points from my resume to justify it. That was Bang On! Jen and Jason together helped me create beautifully crafted essays, resumes and gave inputs to my recommenders. The application I submitted super exceeded my expectations. The interview preparation was also well structured. They not only give feedback on content but also on body language, vocal tonality and advised me to avoid over-preparing else it will look too scripted.

I got admission to Cornell and I could not be happier. You need Aringo’s gold touch in your MBA applications for positive results.

From our very first call, Mark had my absolute trust! He could build a connection with me and I was superbly impressed by him. He told me with 710 on GMAT and my profile (which I thought was too conventional), I have a fair shot with top-ranked schools. As ARINGO believed in me, I dived into the application process with them. Guys, Mark will make you work hard for your applications and he will work even harder. 😊

To depict well what you are doing, what you want to do with your life, what inspires you, etc. is not as easy as it sounds. He helped me to self-analyze these points and that’s how you make your application shine from the others. Post application submission and with interviews done, I waited for the results. To my surprise, I received admits from Foster (with scholarship), Emory (with scholarship), INSEAD, Tepper (with scholarship), and USC Marshall!!!

Mark and ARINGO underpromise you and overdeliver- that’s what you need for your applications.

I signed up with ARINGO consulting early admission season that is around May. This gave me an ample amount of time to have the preliminary discussion on themes coming out from my experiences and then layering them on all the essays.

Jen made the applications much more manageable and less stressful. With Jason on my side, I was enabled to dig deeper into my experiences and could bring out a solid framework for my stories and plans. The final essays were light years ahead of what I wrote myself before the discussion. Both Jen and Jason were very easily accessible. My queries were answered promptly. The good thing about ARINGO is that your consulting is not restricted to 1 or 2 consultants, but rather there is teamwork- strategy team, quality analysts, test drive, school specialists, etc. So you are more than double sure that your applications are scrutinized well before it is brought to the eyes of the Adcoms. Jenifer ensured that I can optimally utilize the time for starting early by connecting with student ambassadors. Sometimes, it is not just about the application. Doing so, also helps you to create a rapport with the program member so that you do not feel alien when you join it. Thanks again. 😊

In short, I really appreciate having Jen on my side and I would recommend ARINGO to anyone exploring MBA admission consultants.

Aringo services played a huge role in my acceptance to Stanford! After talking to multiple consultants, I finally gave my nod to Jenifer from Aringo owing to their personalized approach and being honest about my profile review. She assessed my complete profile and told me which schools will suit me best. The way the Aringo team wants to learn about you to make your stories outstanding is beyond words. When giving feedback on essays, they (Jenifer and Jason) just don’t tell you to rewrite a section; rather will tell you which story will fit best/what to change precisely, etc. Be it, Jen or Jason, I could see how committed and focused they are for every session.

I recommend them highly to anyone serious about applying to top MBA programs.

I had a fantastic experience with Aringo and received 2 admits- INSEAD and Cambridge (with scholarship). Jenifer who was my primary consultant helped me achieved this. David Rubinstein did wonders with my essays. The in-house resources that Aringo has also played a crucial role.
With 710, I was not expecting admissions from such top schools. These guys are the right partner for your MBA journey.

I had a few introductory calls with multiple consultants but after speaking to Jen, I knew I wanted Aringo’s expertise in my applications. Jen was really excited about my candidacy and introduced me to Sriram Emani. I was amazed by the experience Sriram holds besides the MIT degree. He helped me define my career goals which was the key component of my applications. I am the kind of person who does not like to talk too much about himself. Sriram ensured probing me with the right set of questions that made me think about stories on both professional and personal front. The feedback on the essays/resume was constructive in a manner that motivated me to improve. Simple gestures like proactively asking if I need any help, checking on me after interviews, etc. made me feel that the Aringo team is just as interested in my application as I am. That was a differentiator.

With Sriram’s and Aringo’s guidance, I was gladly accepted to my target school Tuck!

I worked with Aringo team and I am super satisfied with the service provided by them. Frankly, I was registering with my details on multiple admission consultants’ websites and was having the initial counseling session done every other day. Some overly promised and some thought that I am aiming too high. Jenifer from Aringo had a different take though. She gave me a thorough idea of what all is positive and what all is not so positive in my profile. She also gave me a clear plan of how Aringo can help me showcase my application in a way so that it is appealing to the adcoms of top B schools.

I then signed up with them and she introduced Derin Raji. Jenifer and Derin are very knowledgeable and were more like a guiding light. I didn’t have a strong understanding of what a business school looks for in the essays and they were able to fill that gap. Her insightful feedback on my essays made them unique and helped me align with the values of the school. I appreciate the genuine care Jenifer placed on the success of my applications and how she was equally happy when I received the admit from Yale.

All thanks to Jenifer and Aringo- it would not have been possible without them!

I could have never gotten the INSEAD’s admit without Aringo’s help. After speaking to Jen for the first time, I liked the way she showed great empathy and understanding when listening to my background and goals. She could relate to my research done and gave her insights in that first call itself.
I then worked with Jen and Shay who instead of immediately starting with the essay, took time to help me articulate a personal unique story that was both authentic and powerful. Even when working on various versions of an essay draft, while the essay improved, the uniqueness and authenticity were intact. Jen took time to even review my application, just to ensure that everything is up to the mark.

Honestly speaking, business school admissions can be incredibly challenging. Having a consultant who is at your side and helping you with commitment is bliss. I owe my successful application to Aringo.

Little did I know that when I thought that MBA will be the next right step for my career, there was so much to do. When I was done with my GMAT, I assumed I have aced the most difficult task – I was so wrong. The MBA application process is like a mammoth in itself. Initially, I tried doing things on my own, but later realized I need guidance. That’s when ARINGO came into the picture. Jen (you will love her) is like a genie! She knows what you want and has answers to all your queries. Based on my profile and background, Jason was allotted to me as my other consultant. They both did wonders to my immature essay drafts and helped me to structure my essays with a logical flow. My resume (which I thought was good to go) was revamped and I could see the value being added. ARINGO just doesn’t give feedback, they share the rationale and are open to hearing your thoughts. It’s teamwork and effort.

I made it to Richard Ivey and I highly recommend going for ARINGO if you are planning to apply to competitive B schools.

I had the pleasure of working with Mark Archuleta to prepare for my B school applications. What I really liked about him was the way he helped me discover and prepare the narrative of my initial draft of the essay until the post-interview reflections.

As I am an engineer by training, so not good at writing stories. Mark worked with me from v1 of essays till v10 unless we agreed together that the file is ready to go. I loved the way he encouraged me not to use too much ornamental language and use the word limit optimally to convey my thoughts, logical connection of my stories. His feedbacks on every document shared were both fast and thorough. In the test drive run of my applications, we checked all the points.

I appreciate the genuine care he placed on the success of the applications and I was happy to receive two admits from top schools.

I stumbled across Aringo’s website one night and was amazed to see the free resources available with them. You can find everything that you need for MBA research in that one place. I registered on their website and promptly received an email from Jenifer with details. I scheduled the call and embarked on my journey with Aringo. She understood my interests and also explained to me how we would work during my application. I had clarity on every aspect and then Shay also joined us from Aringo team. We started filling out a profile summary sheet and then move into strategy and brainstorming calls. Once we decided upon schools, we not only worked on the application materials but were also advised on how to engage with schools. Speaking with ambassadors and attending the info sessions made my school-specific essays very personalized. Jenifer is not only extremely detail-oriented in proofreading, but she is also an expert on bringing out nuances in your experience that can be easily be missed. She helps you discover not only why this school but also how you would uniquely contribute to that specific program.
Once the application was submitted, Jenifer’s & Shay’s dedication did not stop. The interview preparation was top-notch. I was confident in my actual interview and was able to tackle all the questions.
The first thing I did on receiving the admit from UNC Kenan Flagler is to update Jenifer and she was as excited as I was. I give them my highest recommendation.

With an average GMAT score and from an over-represented demographic, I did not hope much from the applications. I started talking to different admission consultants and they thought the same. But Jen was an exception. She brought the peculiar points in my profile which even I failed to look at. That was the deal maker and I knew Aringo could make an outstanding case out of an ordinary applicant like me. Jen quickly mapped me with Jason Bond– my wonderful consultant made the crazy process of application super simplified. There was so much I did not know about the process but Jason was a lifesaver. I will always remember the level of commitment from the Aringo team who helped me with shaping my resume, essays, short questions, and interview preparation. I was accepted in IE and wholeheartedly recommend Aringo to every MBA aspirant.

I spoke to Jen from Aringo and she is an awesome person. For my applications, she mapped me with Shimri and I am glad she did. Shimri took time to understand my background, my career goals, strengths, and weakness before jumping on anything. The brainstorming session played a key role in how my story should be created and the team knows what the school is looking for in an application. Jen was always there to calm my anxiety whenever I panicked- thank you. 😊
We spent hours on essays until it was perfect. With the combined effort I got an offer from INSEAD- I was elated beyond words. Thank you Jen for making this happen!

From my first conversation with Aringo (Shimri) to the one-on-one attention I received from my fantastic consultant (Ori Elkin) and the rest of the Aringo team, my experience was excellent. Coming from a technical background, they helped me understand what MBA programs would be suitable for me. Ori shared with me his impressive experience and offered me constructive feedback to help me shape a compelling story for my essays. With two scholarship offers, I chose Kellogg, for its strong brand and the great sense of community. I am very eager to join this incoming class of 2021 and embark on this new journey.

Prasanth was very helpful throughout the whole process. The process can be quite anxiety-inducing, but whenever talking with Prasanth I felt at ease and is if I was in good hands. Prasanth and the Aringo team were prompt in answering questions and were instrumental in helping me gain acceptance to my dream school. I highly recommend hiring somebody like Prasanth who knows the ins and outs of the admission process, it will pay off in the end!

I would like to start by stating that Aringo’s service ain’t cheap. in fact, it is a very expensive service – but worth every penny 🙂

I really loved working with ARINGO. From the first strategy call, throughout the work on my applications, the many interview preps, and finally the many discussions I had with the team on which offer to accept.

Despite coming from quite a common background (account manager in tech startup) and having a mediocre GMAT (660), the entire ARINGO team (Jenifer, Shimri, Rachel, Sriram etc.) believed in me from day one!
We worked together on 4 schools and I got two offers (Cornell and Ross) and even one little scholarship.

I couldn’t be happier to be an MBA candidate at The Stephen M. Ross School of Business.
Thanks, Aringo!

Highly recommend ARINGO to anyone who’s applying for an MBA. 10/10!! I got into HEC with Jenifer’s help.

I always knew I wanted to do an MBA, I studied Business Administration and knew that an MBA would get me on my path of where I wanted to go. My GMAT score was pretty good but I needed assistance putting my application together. Jenifer helped me with my essays and interview prep. I am just finishing my MBA at Michigan Ross and I have so much to thank Jenifer for. I really wouldn’t have been able to do it without her!

Jen was amazing to work with. She was so professional and really went above and beyond to help me with my application. Her knowledge of the MBA world and programs was so helpful and she really helped steer me in the right direction. My essays were a mess before I met with her and she helped me perfect them. I ended up getting into 4 out of the 5 schools that I applied to, and my GMAT was under the average for almost all of them. I ended up going with Chicago Booth and finished my MBA last year. Would not have been possible without Jen!

I worked with Jenifer 3 years ago on my applications for Duke and two other top schools. I ended up getting into two out of three of those programs and graduated from Duke’s program last year. Could not recommend ARINGO highly enough!

At first, I was apprehensive about using an MBA admissions consultant. I assumed that they would make my application look generic and not personalized. Jen reassured me that that would not be the case. She helped make my application a more polished version and it still showed off my personal achievements and personality. Thank you, Jen!!!!

I did a lot of research before choosing a consulting firm. I heard so many wonderful things about Jen and this is what made me go with Aringo. I never thought I would get into INSEAD after repeatedly taking the GMAT and never getting over 700. Jen, Shimri, and Sriram helped me make that dream a possibility! I loved my time at INSEAD, I learned from the best in the industry and met wonderful people. If you’re thinking of hiring an admission consultant, use Aringo!!

Choosing ARINGO was one of the best decisions I ever made. I would never have been accepted to MIT without their help. Thanks ARINGO!

After studying in Istanbul And New York, I knew that for my MBA I wanted to study abroad again. I didn’t have my heart set on one particular program. When Jenifer suggested INSEAD to me, I was surprised, I didn’t think my GMAT was nearly good enough to even think about applying. After working on my application I got into INSEAD And two of my other top schools.

I didn’t think that my chances of getting into a good MBA program were high. My work experience was all outside of the US and my GMAT was not as high as I would have liked. Jen helped me focus my application on all of the positive aspects of having international experience, and we made sure that the rest of my application looked good. Thank you, Jen and Sriram!

Without Jen and Sriram’s help I would never have gotten into the schools that I did. I got into 3 out of the 4 schools that I applied to and ended up going to USC. They both worked so hard to help me with my application and were there for me around the clock, whenever I needed help.

If I could give Jen and Sriram 6 stars, I would! I would never have gotten into Duke, or be where I am today, without their help. I highly recommend ARINGO to anyone that is applying to MBA programs.

I heard about Aringo from someone I really trust, my brother, who worked with them a few years back and got into Duke.

My GMAT was 720 and although I thought I know how to write, I decided to use some professional help. I did think I stood a chance in the tier2 schools but wasn’t sure my profile and GMAT would be enough for a top tier program. I am so glad I did talk to Aringo…
Jenifer – I can’t start by thanking her. she guided me throughout the process, helped me to choose the schools, discussed the strategy, prepared me for the interviews, and I felt like there is someone who really cares for me and my success. Sriram helped me throughout the application with my essays, CV strategy, etc. he is amazing. the most professional admission consultant out there!
The rest of the Aringo team helped with 2nd and 3rd reviews for each document, more interview preparation, and school experts

overall I am so happy. did I say already I got into Stanford 🙂

Sriram was great helping me build my story and highlight my strengths. Working with him also made me realize what concentration I should pursue and why. I was already happy with his work, but the best was yet to come when he helped me prepare for the interviews. If you work with him, I recommend talking with him on the phone and having Zoom meetings, not only for the interview preps but also to understand his personality. Do not think he will be doing the work for you and be ready to receive constructive criticism.
I was aiming for the top 25 programs and applied late in the last round (April-May). I got offers from UNC, Emory (50k), Georgetown, UF (full scholarship), and USC (60k). These results surpassed my expectations and I could not be more excited and grateful to Sriram and the Aringo team.

Dear ARINGO team.
I got into LBS, Oxford and INSEAD
Thank you!
I couldn’t be happier with the ARINGO service I received from Jen, Lainie, Shimri, and the team. I worked with ARINGO on 3 full school packages. I already received acceptance to Oxford and LBS and yesterday I got the letter from INSEAD.
I wanted to write this review, and thank you.
Coming from a very unorthodox character and background, I wasn’t sure any of the MBA programs will even consider my application. But from the start, the ARINGO strategy team believed in me and helped me sharpen my story. Lainie was amazing in helping me craft the best possible essays, and Jen, Shimri, and the team assisted with 2nd and 3rd reviews of everything and plenty of interview preps.

All in all, I couldn’t be happier for choosing you.

Thank you, Aringo.
There’s no way I could have gone through this experience without Aringo. I was stressed about the process; given extended deadlines, I chose to submit an application without a GMAT. Aringo absolutely gave me the guidance and support I needed. My consultant never ran out of patience with me, though I consistently questioned her! She challenged me, always gave me options, and made me feel that I was in the most qualified and experienced hands. Danielle’s expertise and commitment helped me create and submit an application to Duke that was the perfect reflection of who I am. I couldn’t imagine a better result! Not only was I accepted to Duke but I received an unexpected 40K scholarship! THANK YOU ARINGO!

I have been in touch with Aringo for 3 years now. I initially wanted to do an MBA, but decided I didn’t have enough work experience (and adequate GMAT score). at all stages of the process, Aringo were candid with me regarding my chances and various options. Jenifer, Shimri and Rachel helped me apply in the last round to 3 schools and I am happy to say I got into Northwestern.
what I liked about the Aringo approach was we explored both my strengths and my weaknesses, finding the best material for my essays (I come from a very non-conventional background) and helping me craft very strong applications
Thanks Aringo, I could not have done it without you guys.

Before applying to LBS I interviewed 7 MBA admission consulting firms. they all had good reviews online but from the first conversation with Jen, the Aringo CEO, I felt I was in good hands. they seem to do something different (I didn’t work with others, but they kind of care more). coming from a competitive background with a mediocre GMAT was not a great start, but Jen went over my strengths, and I did feel she believes in me and knows how to take out the important details from my life. I then worked with the Aringo strategy team on the theme of my application, and then with the amazing Sriram on the application itself. Sriram is a real pro, tones of experience, and he guided me through the application with a lot of confidence. every conversation or written iteration felt valuable, and I absolutely loved the work with him!
I also worked with 2 LBS grads on my interview, which obviously went well, cause I got accepted 🙂

The best first step in my MBA journey was choosing Aringo (the 2nd best was choosing LBS, but I will tell you about that in another review)
Thanks, Aringo. You care, you are real pros and you deserve my recommendation!

I worked with ARINGO and got accepted to INSEAD. I would like to thank Sriram and Jenifer for their hard work and for believing in me.
My application is likely a 500% improvement over what I would have submitted without their help. They were extremely personable and did an excellent job communicating my weak points.
