The SBC All-In Service
The majority of our clients choose our All-In package because they understand that the competitive admissions process demands a stellar and strategic application at every level. Essays, interviews, school visits, recommendation letters, and resumes are all guided by an integrated strategy, managed through our All-In service by one dedicated and accountable consultant.
SBC’s All-In Service includes 8 modules:
1) The SBC System™ begins with meticulous matchmaking before we begin an engagement or accept payment.
2) Personal Assessment & Critical Reflection. Your primary consultant will work to understand you authentically along multiple dimensions and create a strategy reflecting what MBA programs are looking for. Your consultant will dig into the who, what, how and why that forms your story through our 360° Personal Orbit ™.
3) We’ll develop a winning personal MBA Application Strategy that answers clearly, “Why should I accept this applicant over the other ones who look equally qualified on paper?”
4) Personal branding is crucial for making your MBA application stand out, and admissions teams love a well-crafted story. Your consultant will help you develop a compelling and cohesive narrative that ties together every aspect of your application—resume, essays, recommendations, and more—tailored to meet each school’s unique expectations.
5) Your success is driven by a collaborative SBC team effort. Your primary consultant taps into a network of former admissions officers and experts for additional insights and you receive exclusive access to The Vault, a comprehensive resource center with decades of application materials.
6) Before submitting your MBA application, ensure it’s flawless with our Flight Test™, where a former admissions officer reviews your entire package with fresh eyes.
7) Take the stress out of interviewing with one-on-one prep with your primary consultant and group prep sessions led by former admissions officers.
8) Our support doesn’t stop once your application is submitted; we continue to assist you in navigating admissions decisions, waitlists, and deferral letters until you accept an offer.
Hourly First Services
Start with 2-3 hours of initial strategy work à la carte to test the waters, and then you can upgrade to an All-In package.

My experience with Danielle was nothing short of amazing. With a little over a week left before the application deadline, I worked with Danielle to get her professional expertise on my essays and résumé. In a relatively quick turnaround, she was able to provide me with very thorough and detailed feedback that boosted my confidence in submitting my best application possible. She even shared some tips and tricks for how I should present my résumé to employers after graduation. I truly believe Danielle played an integral part in my acceptance to CBS!
It was a very positive experience mocking with Danielle. She provided detailed feedback and prepared questions that covered pretty much all possible topics. I felt pretty prepared coming out of our two mock sessions!
Danielle was so informed, and kind, and went above and beyond to support my application. She came to each discussion with extensive research that I never would have thought to research, she edited all of my essays prior to our discussion, and she answered all of my questions above and beyond what was anticipated. She knew more about the school than the website or any other student I talked to. Danielle provided research that was unparalleled and could not be found without her support. She was a great help in my application process. She made me feel calm and excited about the process. I cannot thank her enough. She is great and I look forward to her continuing to help others get into more schools!!
After being given accepted for an interview with CBS, I was quite nervous and didn’t really know what would be expected of me. In a relatively short session, Danielle was able to walk me through common questions, give me a frame of reference for what they are looking for, and boost my confidence going into the interview. I’m happy to say that I was ultimately accepted!
