Attending a top MS program was an important life goal of mine, but my path wasn’t straightforward. Due to extenuating circumstances, both my GPA and GRE scores fell below my target program’s typical ranges, so I worked with Truman to navigate the application process. He was incredibly thoughtful in helping me identify genuine strengths in my profile and strategically frame my unique circumstances. His detailed feedback pushed me through numerous iterations until we’d crafted an application package that authentically represented my potential. Truman’s guidance was instrumental in elevating my materials to a competitive level, and with his help, I was admitted to my top choice at an Ivy League program. I highly recommend him to anyone facing non-traditional circumstances or looking to maximize their application’s impact.
The business school application process is one far more daunting than I initially thought, consisting of a myriad of important factors, such as scores, essays, interviews, resume, letters etc. For months, Truman helped me navigate the intricacies, ins and outs and innumerable considerations of the apps for top schools (all requiring their own unique considerations). Without Trumans guidance, insightful and very timely feedback, I would have been lost. Trumans support not only helped me navigate this challenging process but also helped me secure acceptances to Haas, Anderson, and Marshall with over $300K awarded in scholarships. Without Trumans help, I am certain my business school application process would not have had the successful results they ended up having, and I am so excited to have the opportunity to go to any one of these dream programs.
Thanks to Truman’s coaching and guidance, I was accepted to Booth with a merit scholarship and to Stanford GSB. Truman is super sharp and was able to concisely share feedback on how to better tailor my application to what each individual school would be looking for. This helped me craft cohesive essays that were authentic to me. Many of my essays were about my cultural background, and Truman made sure to understand my background and my experiences before sharing guidance with me. Truman also shared a lot of constructive feedback, and he delivered it in a polite, helpful, and enthusiastic way. This was super helpful for me to reevaluate and iterate on my essay drafts (ultimately this process is what led to my interview invites, in my opinion).
