Testimonial Detail

My experience with Square One was truly the reason for my application success. The daunting task of applying to multiple top 10 MBA programs while balancing career and life variables would’ve truly been impossible without the direct support and guidance from Kathryn and Wilson. I come from a non-traditional military background, professional sports, a low GPA from my undergrad, and a “fringe” GRE score. Square One was able to curate my personal story, pulling my unique background and strengths to the forefront of my applications. They truly gave me a shot in an extremely competitive application year. One thing that I especially appreciated was the candidness and transparency through the whole process. There was an obvious drop off in some of the areas of my application that made me a “risky” candidate relative to my target schools. I was open that I wanted to “shoot for the stars,” and Square One approached our partnership with that in mind.

I am happy to say that I got into one of my target schools and a top 10 program! I had to grind and got to see the “full MBA experience” first-hand: being rejected, waitlisted, and finally accepted, but I felt supported and ready for the challenge every step of the way! 10/10 would recommend utilizing these experts!
