Working with Kathryn was the best investment I have ever made. I can say unequivocally that I would not have been admitted to Stanford GSB without her support, and she played a critical role in my other school admits to Wharton, MIT Sloan and Chicago Booth.
Kathryn is the very best in the business. Her knowledge of the MBA admissions process is second to none, and her advice was consistently sharp, thoughtful, and exactly what I needed at each stage of the journey. I came into the process with a long and complex personal background story, and Kathryn was exceptional at probing in exactly the right places, quickly identifying the details that mattered most, and helping me shape them into essays that were both authentic and MBA-appropriate.
In addition to her expertise, Kathryn was available day and night to help me navigate any issue, whether big or small. Her level of commitment was extraordinary. I would find it very hard to believe that the time Kathryn invests in supporting her clients is matched by any other MBA admissions firm. Throughout an intense process, she made me feel fully supported from start to finish.
The wider Square One Prep team also provided outstanding support throughout the process. The career coaching with Wendy was particularly fundamental to my successful admits and will also help me be intentional during the MBA experience itself. The support I received was comprehensive and highly personalized.
I recommend Kathryn and the Square One Prep team without reservation.
