I feel honored to do this work full-time, and work with only 10 clients per round, which allows me to bring a hands-on, personalized approach to coaching. My clients have earned spots at all top MBA programs, including successful reapplications, last minute waitlist pulls, and sub-3.0 GPA’s gaining admission to M7 schools. I have also helped clients secure over $5M in scholarships.
Lindsay was such a pleasure to work with. I applied to 5 programs across 2 rounds and she patiently worked with me through the applications and two waitlists. I was admitted to Tuck with a scholarship, Columbia, and Wharton. Lindsay leads with kindness, and made the process much less stressful than I thought it was going to be.
Lindsay was absolutely incredible to work with. She not only made me feel confident in myself and reassured throughout the MBA application process, but she gave such thoughtful, tailored guidance and really helped me think through career goals and how to best tell my story. She is patient, kind, and a true cheerleader for her clients. With her help, I got accepted to 2Y programs at HBS, Columbia, and Kellogg with a half ride scholarship. I have already referred Lindsay to multiple friends who are starting the MBA process, and will continue to do so because she is truly the best at what she does!
As an international preparing for my applications, I felt overwhelmed and unsure of my chances. From our first call, I was enthused by her energy, clarity, and objectivity. More importantly, she encouraged me to go for it – often believing in me more than I believed in myself. Working with her proved to be one of the best decisions I’ve made.
Lindsay was organized, resourceful, and held me accountable throughout the process. Her guidance helped me present an honest reflection of who I am, which ultimately gave me confidence in my applications. I’m grateful to have received two offers and will be starting at Tuck this fall. I can’t thank her enough for the role she played in my journey.
I worked with Lindsay on the 3-school comprehensive package and only applied to HBS, GSB, and Wharton. I was lucky enough to be admitted to all three, and I truly don’t think that would have happened without her. She was incredible throughout the entire process. Always available, always listening, and never made me feel rushed. She is super patient and genuinely cares, but also knows when to push you and be firm, which I really needed at times. On top of everything, she is just a really lovely person to work with. Supportive, thoughtful, and fully invested in your success.
I could not recommend her enough!
Lindsay is absolutely the best!! I went into the process not knowing a lot and with a tight timeline, and she really pushed me out of my comfort zone to dig deeper and get to the finish line. One of my friends at Wharton recommended her to me and I am so thankful I got connected to Lindsay! She really knows the ins and outs of these schools and will help you stand out. Even with just hourly support, I cannot thank Lindsay enough for all her kind words and encouragement throughout the whole process. I ended up getting into 5 out of the 6 schools I applied to (4 M7 schools and a T10)! I ended up committing to my dream school at Wharton with a scholarship more than I could have ever imagined! Thank you Lindsay x1000!! Cannot recommend her enough.
Working with Lindsay was one of the best decisions I made during my MBA application process. As someone with a non-linear career path, and being an older applicant, I needed a consultant who could see the strengths in an unconventional story rather than try to fit me into a standard template. And Lindsay did exactly that! From our first conversation, she took the time to understand not just my professional background but the personal experiences that shaped my career decisions. She helped me craft essays that were authentic and compelling, drawing out stories I wouldn’t have thought to include on my own. Her feedback was detailed and thoughtful, she pushed me to go deeper on the narratives that mattered and cut what didn’t serve the application. She was also incredibly responsive and flexible with timing, which made managing multiple applications far less stressful. She kept me organized and focused. The results speak for themselves: I was admitted to three top MBA programs, including an M7 school and one of the best international programs globally. I’d recommend Lindsay to anyone who feels their profile doesn’t fit the “typical” MBA mold. She has a genuine ability to find the narrative thread in unconventional careers and present it with clarity and confidence.
I spoke to EVERY single MBA consulting firm out there and was almost going to ChatGPT the whole thing – and I’m SO glad I didn’t. Lindsay is a LIFE CHANGER and a huge reason I’m now sitting here with HBS (!!!!!), Wharton, three other M7 admits, LBS, and nearly $400k (seriously, what?!?!) in scholarships across the board. I never believed this would be my outcome.
From the very first call, Lindsay showed up like a real, warm, genuine, and extremely competent human who actually wanted to know me and show up for me. Zero pretense. I cannot overstate how important it is to choose someone you genuinely click with: they will get to know you deeply and be there every step of the way. Hire the person who feels right.
She is incredibly efficient (targeted feedback, super quick turnarounds), razor sharp, and deeply thoughtful. When you work an intense job and need quick turnarounds, or want to do hourly and be budget-conscious, TRUST, she is the GOAT. She knows exactly what to push on until it’s perfect, when to calm you down, and when to stop the spiral and just move you forward. And when doubt hits (it will), she is the most real, consistent cheerleader in your corner. I felt genuinely cared for through this entire process and I love her SO much.
In the ChatGPT era, it’s easy to question what a consultant even adds. The answer is Lindsay. Not just the strategy or the edits: her. A human who listens, cares, and shows up for you in a way you simply cannot replicate.
She’s not just a consultant: she’s a friend, a coach, and one of the best advisors I’ve had in my professional life. I would personally message Poets & Quants to request they let me rate her 1,000,000/10, but unfortunately I can’t. You WILL regret not hiring her.
Working with Lindsay was one of the most impactful parts of my MBA journey. She went far beyond a typical coach, truly listening, understanding my story, and becoming my biggest advocate throughout the process. Her feedback was always concise, thoughtful, and exactly what I needed. She struck the perfect balance of pushing me while making me feel fully supported. More than anything, Lindsay helped me believe in myself. Her positivity never wavered, and she was always there when I needed her. The results still feel surreal. I was admitted to both of my dream schools, programs I once thought were out of reach, and received a full-ride scholarship to one. I genuinely would not be here without Lindsay. I truly miss our sessions and cannot recommend her highly enough! I have recommended her to family members and closest friends of mine, and they have all had incredible experiences and amazing outcomes with her.
Working with Lindsay was the best decision I made during my MBA application process. Her expertise and deep understanding of the business school world was evident from our first call, which made all the difference as she guided me through the various application stages. She helped me translate my non-business background into a compelling story, strengthened my resume, and made me feel confident throughout every stage of the application process. Lindsay’s feedback was always prompt, specific, and incredibly helpful. Her support as I prepared for my interviews was invaluable, and I always left our practice sessions feeling ready and confident. With Lindsay’s support, I was admitted to all three schools I applied to, including London Business School, which was my first choice. I also received a generous scholarship from the Forte Foundation. I cannot recommend Lindsay’s services enough!
I applied to four M7 schools with Lindsay’s help and received interview invites to all and accepted to my top choice with scholarship. Lindsay celebrated my unique background and career goals while helping to translate the language and industry jargon to what would be better communicated in an MBA application. She helped bring out the unique features to ensure my application was as authentically me as possible. She’s always quick to respond and provided comprehensive feedback at each stage of the application process, while making herself available for video calls as often as needed. She also asked clarifying questions so that the message that I’m trying to convey is actually being received. Lindsay also had great insights to share about the interview process and the mocks were very helpful. Having Lindsay in my corner was one of the best investments I’ve made to set myself up for success in this next chapter. Lindsay was a top advocate every step of the way and would wholeheartedly refer any and all future applicants for her services.
I loved working with Lindsay! She was patient, thoughtful, and incredibly supportive throughout my MBA application process. I was so anxious about taking the next step and applying to business school while juggling my full-time job, but she guided me every step of the way. With her support, I was admitted to my top choice program, NYU Stern’s full-time MBA, and received a full scholarship. She helped me brainstorm my stories, reflect on what I truly want in life and my career, and feel confident in my decisions. Her guidance helped me stay on track during tight deadlines and make the whole process far more manageable!
Working with Lindsay was an life-changing experience. The combination of her deep expertise at top business schools and her thoughtful, personalized approach, made all the difference in my MBA application journey. Lindsay expertly helped me craft a compelling narrative out of my unique background, provided insightful and prompt feedback, was always encouraging and supportive, and kept me organized and motivated throughout a stressful and rigorous process. Lindsay’s kindness knows no bounds, she sees the best in every client and knows how to maximize their potential. Thanks to her guidance, I was admitted to 5 out of the 6 schools I applied to, all were top 10 schools, and 2 were M7s. It was truly her mentorship that was instrumental in my success. I highly recommend Lindsay to anyone seeking to maximize their MBA admissions potential.
Working with Lindsay was truly transformative and impactful for my MBA journey. Her deep experience and trusted guidance helped me navigate program choices and the entire application process with confidence. She provided tailored, actionable advice and pointed me to invaluable resources I wouldn’t have found otherwise. Thanks to her support, I felt far more prepared, educated, and at ease every step of the way. I truly could not have been admitted to the CBS EMBA program without her expertise and encouragement. I also loved how she operated with such effectiveness and organization. She made me a lot less stressed and encouraged throughout the process, something that is so invaluable through this process.
Working with Lindsay was the best decision I made during my MBA application journey. Balancing a full-time job while applying to business school felt overwhelming at first, but her strategic guidance and structured support made all the difference. She was instrumental in helping me stay on track with every deadline and brought out the best in my story through thoughtful brainstorming sessions, essay feedback and interview prep. Thanks to her, I was admitted to my top-choice school along with several others, and I received generous scholarship offers. I couldn’t have done it without her expertise and encouragement. Highly recommend!
I was referred to Lindsay early on in my MBA process. At the time I was unsure of which schools I should target and what score I needed on the GMAT Focus Edition be admitted to those schools. Lindsay took the time to review all I have to offer holistically, discuss my short- and long-term career goals, and craft my story from scratch. Without Lindsay’s help I would have not known where to start. Further, once Lindsay and I chose target schools and I achieved my GMAT score she made the application process a breeze. Having someone with Lindsay’s expertise allowed me to tackle the intense application process while keeping of with my demanding job. Ultimately, I was admitted to two of my top M7 choices (CBS and Booth with a Scholarship) and will be attending Booth next fall. I could not have achieved this without Lindsay’s help.
Lindsay is an incredible MBA admissions consultant who provided outstanding support throughout my application process. She offered insightful feedback and helped me uncover key aspects of my identity/story to create compelling applications. Both my partner and I worked with Lindsay, and she guided us in selecting the same programs based on our individual interests.
Thanks to her help, we both got into an M7 program and are excited to attend together. Lindsay is detail-oriented, ensuring every part of our applications was well-crafted. She communicated clearly and kept us informed at every stage. Her realistic approach gave us honest assessments and set us on the right path. Most of all, Lindsay’s encouragement was a huge boost!
Her expertise made a real difference in our MBA journey. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a supportive and knowledgeable admissions consultant!!
I worked with Lindsay for the most recent MBA application process (c/o ’27), using her full service comprehensive package. She was recommended to me by one of her former clients, and I can say with certainty that the recommendation was the single most important event in my MBA application journey. She was incredibly attentive to the point where you can sometimes feel like you’re her only client, and turnaround times were quick. She knows how to navigate the process and is very realistic and rational in her approach. The work quality was outstanding – the essays/apps were all my own, but she got to know me well and helped me pull out my most impactful stories/anecdotes, creating a cohesive narrative across my life and career. My first drafts (pre-Lindsay) compared to the finished products (post-Lindsay) were quite frankly embarrassing… I believe she was vital in helping me receive acceptances from 2/3 HSW schools (including my top choice GSB!!!) and that my apps were of the highest possible quality that I could’ve put forward. While consultants are expensive categorically, I am incredibly satisfied with the ROI here (A+++ consultant at a great price), and will be recommending her to all my friends and colleagues. If you’re in the market for a consultant, I can PROMISE you that you won’t regret working with Lindsay!!!
I worked with Lindsay on an hourly basis for help with my resume, essays, and interviews and she was great. She was extremely helpful with the whole essay process from start to finish, crafting my story, making sure I was getting the points across that were most impactful, and editing. She also did interview prep with me which was very valuable as she helped me learn what to expect and to ensure the interview was a positive addition to my application. In the end I received multiple acceptances with sizable scholarships that I don’t think would have been possible without her help.
Working with Lindsay was the best decision I made during my MBA application process. I selected her comprehensive support package and felt it was more than worth it. She was unwaveringly positive, yet realistic, and helped me address weak areas of my application and highlight the areas where I really shine. Lindsay was invaluable in helping me sort through my profile and the parts of myself and my story I wanted to focus on and hone them into meaningful essays. She helped me outline a timeline and kept me on track and organized through the entire process and because of that I was able to apply Round 1 with applications that represented my best self. I was accepted to both my top choice schools (CBS and NYU) with a full ride to NYU! That would absolutely not have been possible without her guidance and expertise. Could not recommend her more highly. If you have any doubts, one phone call with Lindsay will put any worries you have to rest.
I decided I wanted to apply to business schools in May – having yet to study for the GRE/GMAT – and met with several consultants to support me in the application process. After meeting with Lindsay, who a past colleague had referred me to, I had a gut feeling that she was the right person to partner with: she was clearly a great listener, structured thinker, and proactive project manager, which I knew I needed! Through the rest of the year, Lindsay was with me every step of the way, helping me think through my career goals and essays, encouraging me as I balanced this with test prep, and showing tremendous patience and grace when I pivoted my direction on school selection a few months into working together. Lindsay was particularly helpful in keeping me focused on the big picture, which helped me stay on track with Round 1 deadlines under a tight timeline and ultimately decide between two acceptances – Tuck and Haas – which both awarded me scholarships beyond my dreams!
Lindsay was an enormous help in my applications and is a truly genuine and thoughtful partner throughout the process! She knows how to help you craft your story so you can put your best foot forward with each school. I can’t recommend her highly enough! Thanks to Lindsay’s help, I was admitted to Wharton and Kellogg with a full-tuition scholarship at Kellogg.
Lindsay was amazing to work with. I was on the fence about working with a consultant because I was fearful of the costs and questioned the value but after one 30-minute consult with Lindsay I knew she was the right answer.
I gave her a set number of hours to work with and she respected my budget more than I did which is very honest of her (I offered to do more hours and she explained why I was set up for success on my own). (and I got into my M7 school and 3 / 4 other top 10 programs)
What I personally appreciated the most was her skills at helping me brainstorm a structure and answer for the essays (which felt daunting and then super simple after our chats). That being said, if you want to use her more for interview prep or something else, she’s equally fantastic.
Wouldn’t be going to b-school without her plain and simple. Did the comprehensive 1-school package and without it I wouldn’t have received my full scholarship, implying the package is priced at a fraction of its value. This is of course not even including the peace of mind of working with a professional who clears up any information gaps and keeps you accountable to deadlines.
I started my MBA application journey being very unsure about how to approach my profile and to craft a unique, convincing narrative throughout my essays, as well as which schools I can realistically get in. I got on a free call with Lindsay right after obtaining a fairly good GMAT score and had no idea where to start. Lindsay walked me through the process step by step and encouraged me to aim high. Together we drew a list of programs to target, and brainstormed relevant essay topics. Throughout the process Lindsay was always a very good listener who not only picked up on interesting parts of my profile I didn’t know would be useful and helped connect the dots, but was also very receptive to my own comments and preferences in terms of schools and programs. Although she was very helpful, she always made sure you were the coming up with the ideas and goals and she was there to support you. Every draft essay I sent her would be thoroughly reviewed and filled with helpful comments; every interview I had Lindsay helped prepare me and also reassured my nerves. In the end I got into 2 out of the 4 M7 programs I applied to in R1— which I could not have done without Lindsay!
I was hesitant to work with any admissions consultant, period. Lindsay showed a rare combination of professionalism and empathy in our consultation call that immediately made me feel she’d be worth the money. She certainly was, and then some; with her guidance, I was admitted to all three schools I applied to (two M7s and a T15), and was offered generous scholarships across the board, including two full rides. I was somewhat of a “non-traditional” applicant. I came from an underrepresented industry, had a gap in work history, and was harboring a very personal and emotional story to tell in my essays that was central to my career goals. Lindsay did a fantastic job listening, understanding, and giving me the confidence to craft a narrative that gave justice to my experiences, rather than view them as shortcomings. She was also an effective project manager. Her gentle nudges and quick prioritization chats were invaluable during the big sprints. I would highly, highly recommend Lindsay to anyone who is feeling unsure about any step of the application process. She knows the space so well and really takes the time to get to know you 1:1, which is why I think she fosters such good results. Above all, she’s just an excellent human being!
I had an outstanding experience working with Lindsay. It was noticeable from our very first call that Lindsay brought a wealth of expertise and knowledge of the MBA admissions process. What truly set Lindsay apart was her flexibility—I changed my application & admissions goals (schools applying to, program type) midway through our engagement and Lindsay did not miss a beat, adapting quickly while offering sound and practical guidance all along the way.
Further, when I was torn on which schools to attend after acceptance, Lindsay went above and beyond by offering pro bono support to help me weigh my options and gain clarity. That level of generosity and commitment truly reflect her dedication to helping you succeed. Her insights were invaluable and ultimately played a significant role in my final decision.
If you’re looking for an admissions consultant who is knowledgeable, pragmatic, and adaptable, I highly recommend!
I am proud to share that Lindsay helped me get my application in tip top shape. I was accepted to 3 of 3 MBA programs I applied to (all of which are consistently ranked in the top 10 lists globally). I had a very specific vision for how I wanted to work with a consultant, and Lindsay perfectly tailored our sessions to how I saw fit for my MBA application journey. She provided me with key insights, tips, and tricks to improve my essays that I could not have found on the internet, friends, or through other counselors. Additionally, I was on a tighter timeline, and Lindsay worked tirelessly to help me get my apps together for Round 1. Highly recommend!
After interviewing several MBA consultants, I selected Lindsay because of how personable, proactive, organized, and intentional she is with her clients. She took the time to get to know me and let that guide the advice she gave me for programs that were a good fit based on my goals and experiences. Despite the fact that I was not confident in my own ability to get into a top school, Lindsay encouraged me to apply to four M7 programs and was a critical reviewer as I wrote essays and short answer responses. I was invited to interview with all four programs I applied to, and ultimately received acceptance letters from three schools – Kellogg (where I received a sizable scholarship), Columbia, and MIT Sloan. The results blew my expectations out of the water – and none of it would have been possible without Lindsay’s support!
When I began the MBA application process, I was unsure whether to hire an admissions consultant. Still skeptical, I scheduled an introductory call with Lindsay. From the start, it was clear she would add value to my application, so I decided to move forward with a comprehensive package. In hindsight, working with Lindsay was a game-changer and led to an outcome that far exceeded my expectations: I was admitted to all five M7 programs I applied to, including HBS and Wharton, and received generous scholarships from two schools. I strongly recommend her to anyone serious about getting into an M7 MBA program.
I came into the application process with good bits and pieces (“bones,” as Lindsay called them). Lindsay helped me turn this amorphous bunch of good ingredients into a compelling application with a coherent narrative arc. From our earliest meetings, she was able to dig the strongest parts of my story, helping me find experiences and achievements that I had overlooked in my initial brainstorming. As we got into the essay-writing process, she helped me build a story that highlighted my strengths and clearly showed how my experiences made me a good candidate for an MBA program and for my subsequent professional goals.
What stood out most was how genuine her support felt. Lindsay was not making me come up with a story that I could sell, but actually guided me through professional “soul searching” to distill and articulate my career goals. Her comprehensive understanding of each program’s unique priorities also allowed me to tailor my applications effectively. Lindsay’s years of experience, both as an AdCom and an admissions consultant, were evident throughout the process.
Lindsay was also exceptionally professional. She kept everything organized, adding much-needed structure to what can feel like an overwhelming process. Her communication was clear, and she was incredibly responsive, often returning drafts within hours. Every aspect of my application—from major components like essays and interviews to smaller elements like short-answer responses—received meticulous attention until it was flawless. As a busy professional with high standards, I found exactly the type of support I needed.
In short, my experience with Lindsay was overwhelmingly positive and far exceeded my expectations. If you’re considering a top MBA program: you only apply once, so it’s worth getting the best support possible for such a consequential process. For me, that support was Lindsay.
Lindsay was absolutely incredible to work with! I feel very lucky that I got to work with her and have already referred several friends to her. Lindsay gave me all of the tools to be successful throughout the MBA application process, prepared me for my interviews, and was always willing to jump on the phone for a quick chat or to give advice. I was admitted to all three schools that I applied to (Stern, CBS, and Wharton) and truly do not think I could have done it without her. Thank you Lindsay!!!!!
Working with Lindsay was truly transformative for my MBA journey. From day one, she was my biggest believer and cheerleader, providing unwavering support while keeping me honest and focused. Lindsay’s timely and thoughtful feedback helped me present my authentic self and made the entire process feel manageable and even enjoyable. Her guidance was instrumental in ensuring that I stayed on track and put my best foot forward at every stage.
Thanks to Lindsay’s expertise and encouragement, I was admitted to three out of the four M7 schools I applied to (waitlisted at 1), including a full-ride scholarship to my top choice—a result I never dreamed was possible. I wouldn’t change a single thing about my MBA journey, and I owe that to Lindsay’s unparalleled guidance and dedication.
Lindsay was really instrumental in my essay writing journey. I needed help with crafting some of my stories and essays and Lindsay came through for me. She made the essay writing portion of the application a breeze for me when I was fully dreading the entire process. I would highly recommend using her in any part of the process.
Lindsay was indispensable to me throughout my MBA application journey. As a former admissions committee member, she is intimately familiar with the MBA application process from end to end, which makes her uniquely well-positioned to set her clients up for success. Specifically, Lindsay’s feedback and insight was crucial to ensuring that my application essays were crafted in a manner that would be compelling from an admissions committee standpoint. In addition, Lindsay did an excellent job of organizing everything I needed to do to complete my applications on time, which allowed me to feel in control throughout the process. Lindsay is also a delightful person who is truly enjoyable to work with. With Lindsay’s guidance, I was accepted to each school I applied to and am thrilled to be attending Columbia Business School this fall!
If I were to apply again, I would try to increase my score, write better essays, have better interviews… But the ONLY thing that I would not even consider changing is Lindsay.
Lindsay set herself apart from the very beginning. My friends who have done an MBA recommended me to a couple of different consultants. During the intro call, her genuine commitment to help her clients and her taking the time to get to know me vs. trying to sell her services set her apart from all of the others I’ve spoken to.
It turned out to be the best decision I made. Lindsay not only provided super professional advice on my application essays, short answers, interviews (I always felt that she was born to do this), but more importantly, a wise friend and mentor who guided me through this emotionally challenging journey.
I eventually got into 3 of 5 schools I applied thanks to Lindsay: MIT ($$$), Wharton, and Booth ($$$).
I would 1000% recommend Lindsay to everyone who is considering an MBA program. Even if you are not even sure about applying, or your friends recommended you to a different consultant, please just take the free intro call with Lindsay. It might be the best decision you make in your MBA journey.
I was introduced to Lindsay through a co-worker who had worked with her for the full time MBA application process the year before. She was extremely effective, organized, and empathetic. Her guidance really helped me through the rigorous process of applying to 6 schools for round 2 while simultaneously studying for the GRE. The results were beyond anything I expected. I was admitted to Stern, Tuck, Johnson, Columbia Business School, and Ross. Additionally, I received scholarship from two of those programs. With Lindsay’s help I was able to make my business school dreams come true, and I would highly recommend her to anyone who is going through the MBA application process!
I was introduced to Lindsay through a GMAT prep instructor and took her up on an offer for a free introductory Zoom meeting to discuss my profile and goals.
I had no expectations for the call and wanted to see if her process or approach was any different than what I had seen with other admissions consultants that were more popular/loud in the MBA sphere.
I never expected that our brief call would turn into a nearly 8 month engagement, filled with ups and downs but absolutely transformative in the end.
Thanks to Lindsay I had my choice of multiple M7 admits, and was even awarded generous scholarship funding at the then #1 US News ranked MBA program, which honestly shocked me at the time. If I had listened to the advice of the big name admissions consultant factories (e.g. Admissionado who had advised me to reach and hope for T15 in the absolute best case) I would have sold myself short, never putting myself out there to my dream schools, and I wouldn’t be in the position I am in today.
Lindsay was able to completely transform my candidacy, starting with my goals and story and working through some serious holes and multiple dings in my profile. She is an excellent writer who advised me probably 100+ times on things like phrasing, storylines, and focus. Honestly she made me a better storyteller and helped me to frame my life and nontraditional background in a coherent and powerful way.
Lindsay is also a real human, unlike the people you meet at the big name shops. She doesn’t offer superficial advice just to get you off the call, and she never pressured me to do anything that I wasn’t comfortable with or couldn’t afford. She is caring, kind, patient, and so much more. By the end of your time working with her, you will feel as though she is a part of your family or inner circle because she is always there for you when you need her.
All in all, after gaining admission to my dream school (Columbia) with an academic and professional background as nontraditional as you can get, I can confidently say that Lindsay has changed my life and given me an entirely new career trajectory which I couldn’t have imagined otherwise. If you take anything from this review, just know that Lindsay will be there to push you in exactly the right ways to earn offers from any school you desire – all you need to do is focus and do the work.
Lindsay is absolutely incredible and I feel so fortunate to have had the opportunity to work with her! I had come to Lindsay feeling discouraged about all aspects of the application process (i.e. were the schools I wanted to go to within reach, was the timeline I had set for myself feasible, etc). Within the first 10 minutes of talking with her, she made everything feel possible and within reach. From beginning to end, she was made the application process feel seamless and doable. Her confidence and knowledge in the process and her unwavering support and positive attitude blew me away! I walked away from the process with offers to all of the schools I applied to (Georgetown (scholarship $ too), UCLA (scholarship $ as well), NYU and Columbia). I am so grateful for her and if there is one thing you do in the application process it would be to work with her! Thank you Lindsay!
I met with a few different admissions consultants trying to find the right match, and as soon as I came away from my consultation call with Lindsay, I knew that I wanted to work with her. Off the bat she was both positive and supportive, which was exactly what I was looking for going into the daunting application process. Where other people made me feel unsure or unconfident about my story and my goals, Lindsay helped me to keep to my true, authentic self throughout the application process, and landed me with 2 M7 admits by the end. I know that my applications would not have been nearly as strong without her help, and truly believe I could not have done it without her. At a tactical level, she helped me work through draft after draft and often turned around comments within a day – I honestly would never have even known she had other clients because she provided me with such a high level of personal, around the clock support.
As a non-traditional candidate, I was looking for someone who could help cut through the noise, see my strengths, and empower me to put together the most authentic application. Lindsay did just that. My favorite quality of Lindsay is that she’s kind but direct and concise. While going through the MBA process, it was important that whoever I worked with took seriously how valuable our time together was and used it efficiently. Further, Lindsay was particularly skilled in navigating difficult conversations about my LGBTQ+ identity. I am so grateful for her, and cannot recommend her enough.
Lindsay came recommended to me from a coworker, who used her services and was accepted to her top choices. Lindsay immediately dove in and helped me to craft a polished application. As somebody who had a lower GPA, I was concerned about my chances of getting into school. Lindsay helped me to increase my confidence and showed me how to tell my unique story. I was accepted into school with a 75% scholarship, and I know that I would not have received that scholarship (and maybe not even the acceptance) if I had not used Lindsay’s services. It more than paid for itself! I cannot recommend Lindsay enough.
When I was applying to B-School in 2023, my HBS friend recommended Lindsay to me as “the hands down best coach ever, at the best possible market price.” I listened to my friend and booked sessions with Lindsay. I AM NOT KIDDING WHEN I SAY WORKING WITH LINDSAY WAS A LIFE-CHANGING DECISION. Thanks to Lindsay, I was accepted to both GSB and HBS (the only schools I applied to). Lindsay helped me identify and expand on the gold nuggets in my application, and in retrospect, the difference between my pre-Lindsay essay brainstorms/drafts and my post-Lindsay final submissions is insane. Although my early drafts were passable, they were objectively not HBS/GSB quality, so I 100% have Lindsay to thank for my acceptances.
Every time I meet someone applying to B-School, I tell them the following: 1. Trust me, work with a coach. You can start with a small package and then buy more as needed, but I’ve learned that almost everyone that gets accepted to these programs works with a coach, so it’s realistically a cost you need to embrace if you want to get accepted to these programs. 2. Don’t waste your time evaluating coaches, just use Lindsay Sage. I’ve done a ton of research and can confirm from experience she is amazing to work with and is the best possible value and quality.
Lindsay is an excellent consultant. She is a natural cheerleader, sharp and thorough in her analysis and guidance, and the results speak for themselves.
Beyond being admitted to the #1 Business School in the world. The one thing I am proud of is being accepted for who I truly am, which is an essence Lindsay helped me encapsulate on paper. Lindsay was able to help me demonstrate all my experiences even when the odds were stacked against me with a lower-than-median test score and work experience.
And no, she is not a miracle worker, nor is there a guarantee, but one thing I thought about before getting Lindsay’s service was that this was an investment in myself to give myself the best chance to get into my dream school, so if you can afford it, have a go. I am sure you will get value from her. She has an incredible track record of sending people to some of the best schools in the world and the best fits for them( this is very important).
Plus, Let’s be real she is less expensive than other consultancy companies with similar results 👀
The MBA Application experience is already very stressful, and you want someone in your corner who has the intelligence, background, and industry knowledge to help you achieve your goals. Beyond that, you want someone who has the emotional intelligence to know what you need in each session: encouragement, an extra push, whatever it is. Lindsay has all those traits, and that makes for a killer combination.
I know if you pick Lindsay by the end of your application, you will at least have a sense of peace and comfort in knowing you truly gave it your all, and that’s all we can really do. She supported me beyond the applications into interviews, and now I get to celebrate with her as I just finalized my decisions on where I am going,
I could not recommend Lindsay more highly and she is worth every penny.
Lindsay is a kind and patient person who I could not have gone through this process without. Despite having an average GPA and below average test scores, Lindsay was my cheerleader and always made me feel optimistic about my chances. She was understanding when I was hesitant or had impostor syndrome and always had something positive to say.
When working on my essays, Lindsay provided me with insightful feedback. Her comments were clear and easy to follow, and I felt like we were making progress with every iteration. Lindsay was quick to return written materials and reply via email. When I was struggling with testing Lindsay provided emotional support and alternative suggestions. She is not just there to help edit essays but is truly a partner in this process. Entering in this process somewhat blind and last minute, Lindsay explained how things work and how I could best go about writing my essays and taking my tests.
After receiving interview invites, (including at my M7 reach school), Lindsay was a wealth of information. She knows the players and is able to provide insider knowledge. She helps you craft a clear and concise story and highlight the best parts about yourself. Lindsay also has a wealth of written information available for her clients with advice, deadlines, and guides on schools.
During the application process, I wanted to highlight my LGBTQ advocacy work in the hope of receiving a ROMBA scholarship. Not only did I receive a ROMBA scholarship, but I received the Forte Fellowship as well, totaling $60,000 in awards. I could not have done this without Lindsay. Having been accepted to a full time MBA program was only a dream a few months ago, but Lindsay helped make it possible.
Lindsay was truly a godsend in my MBA admissions journey. She helped me with my essays, applications, and interview prep and I got into my first choice! Her expertise is extremely reassuring throughout this stressful process, and she was really my #1 cheerleader the whole time. She was a joy to work with and I have already recommended her to many others.
I came into this process with a vague ideal of what I wanted to get out of b-school but after my first meeting with Lindsay, she really took the time and patience to help me refine what I wanted to get out of the experience. She has so much knowledge at every step and will help you work through any obstacle, no matter how small, with an incredible amount of professional expertise and experience. I have been accepted to Vanderbilt Owen’s Class of 2026 with a generous scholarship and I highly HIGHLY recommend Lindsay to anyone who is looking for an MBA consultant.
I had originally planned to apply to MBA programs without a consultant, but when I was referred to Lindsay and had an initial phone call with her, I knew right away that she was not only worth every penny, but would go above and beyond to make sure that I had an outstanding application. She gave me the confidence that I had a great application and implored me to think big. Lindsay’s ability to listen and provide detailed advice is second to none. She always made me feel like a priority. Another important aspect of Lindsay is her attention to detail and timeliness. When juggling essays, resumes, and other application materials, Lindsay organized all of it by offering a detailed road map and cleanly edited materials that made following the review process very easy. Her edits provided me with a tremendous essay framework that was tailored specifically for each school I applied to. Lindsay not only gave great, detailed advice, but was always there to listen about any concerns or questions I may have had as well. Once it came time to prep for interviews, Lindsay offered amazing, real-life mock interviews that prepared me exactly for how the real thing went. Without her help during that process, I would not have been prepared to successfully complete my interviews. With Lindsay’s help and guidance, I was admitted to Darden (UVA). Working with Lindsay was an outstanding decision and I never would have been able to get to the point that I am at now without her help. I highly recommend Lindsay for anyone looking for a consultant.
I started exploring my interest in an MBA without a complete understanding of the application process or the schools that best fit my interests. Lindsay walked me through the entire process, from exploring programs to accepting an offer, with an experienced and candid approach. She quickly became more than a consultant to me and became a friend. As a friend, she did an amazing job helping me stay motivated after not scoring as high as I wanted on my first GRE. I ultimately was admitted into every program where I applied and I know Lindsay made it all possible for me.
Lindsay was referred to me by my sister who had all great things to say about her when applying to MBA programs. For me, Lindsay was the best consultant I could ask for hands down! I had one program in mind, Olin, and I did not do any standardized testing. Not only did Lindsay give me the confidence, but she truly knew the ins and outs of the application process and how best to represent myself on paper and in person. With her help and knowledge, I was admitted to Olin and as a bonus was given a large scholarship!!! If you are looking for someone to partner with you on your MBA journey and truly help, then go with Lindsay! Thank you Lindsay for all your help!
I was referred to Lindsay from a friend of mine who had gained admission to several top business schools using Lindsay’s services. Since I was only applying to one MBA program (London Business School), I wanted to make sure that I put forth the best application possible, and Lindsay was a crucial component in making that happen. I hired her for the hourly support option and was treated like any other client. She was always quick to respond with application edits and consistently provided insightful feedback to everything that I submitted to her. Despite having slightly below target stats, with her help I was admitted to my dream school and could not have been happier with her services. She is genuine, supportive and everything you would want in an admissions consultant. She’s worth every dollar!
Lindsay is an absolutely incredible consultant! She has exceptional style and prose in helping with applications, but more importantly, her years of knowledge and experience bring a comfort to all the anxiety that comes with the application process. She anticipates questions and knows exactly what the admission committees are looking for. I applied to only one school and got in thanks to all the help from Lindsay! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!
