Hi Ms. Julep, this is Donna Bauman at Stratus Admissions and I think you have a terrific profile! You will bring an understanding of real estate from the design side that will absolutely add value to the class and you also bring some really interesting extracurriculars with horseback riding and track. You have done your homework as you are considering several of the best MBA programs for real estate and I think you could be a compelling candidate at many of these programs if you do your research and spend time reflecting on your story. For Wharton you should be going deep in research now—talk to students and get a sense both of how Wharton can help you and also how you can add value …

Hi Ms. Julep, this is Donna Bauman at Stratus Admissions and I think you have a terrific profile! You will bring an understanding of real estate from the design side that will absolutely add value to the class and you also bring some really interesting extracurriculars with horseback riding and track. You have done your homework as you are considering several of the best MBA programs for real estate and I think you could be a compelling candidate at many of these programs if you do your research and spend time reflecting on your story. For Wharton you should be going deep in research now—talk to students and get a sense both of how Wharton can help you and also how you can add value to Wharton with your unique architecture background. I also think Anderson, Kellogg, Kenan-Flagler and Yale and Darden could all be great options for you. I have worked successfully with many candidates considering real estate concentrations for their MBA and would be glad to talk to your further about your profile if you want to reach out for a free consult. But Overall I think you will bring a fresh perspective to all these MBA programs and I like your odds in general. Wharton is always tough but they do look at candidates holistically and I think if you submit a thoughtful application there where you do your homework that you could be successful.
