Individual Advising

Map out your path to success in advance

Have a goal in mind, but not sure how to take the necessary steps to achieve it?

The more time you have to plan, the better. This service is well-suited for applicants that are looking ahead and hoping to carefully plan their preparation well in advance of their application. Our advisors have graduated from some of the top universities in the country, and now work for some of the most competitive companies and organizations in the nation. We specialize in pairing you with an advisor who will meet your specific needs and has walked the same path you wish to pursue in order to review a step-by-step approach for how to achieve that goal.

What Our Applicants Are Saying

"The elite package was totally worth it after seeing the revisions of my C.V., personal essay and entire application and going through multiple drafts. I have no doubt it helped me stand out and highlight the experiences that were important that led to multiple acceptances"

"I was applying to some of the top MBA programs in the country with decent but not amazing GPA and GMAT scores. My advisor was a pro and helped revise my essay and application where I can truly say it made a huge difference"

"Can't say enough good things about this service. Way cheaper than some of the other services I was looking into, so detailed with their editing, and really took my application to the next level"

"I had been stressed about my MBA application and whether it was worth it if I didn't get into a top 20 program. My advisor not only helped me navigate the stress of all of the applications, but I ended up getting multiple acceptances to programs I aimed for!"

"ExceptionalGrad took my application to the next level with their resume and personal essay editing. Thank you so much to my advisor who helped me get in to my top choice!"

"Being from the West coast, some of my preferred options were among the hardest to get into in the country. This service really helped my essay and application shine, and I got more than one acceptance that let me stay in California!"

Elite Packages

Instead of addressing and polishing only one facet of the entire application, it can be helpful to have a thorough review to ensure that the personal essay, common application, and even the interview are all fully prepared to shine when it counts most. Based on request from many of our superb applicants, we offer elite packages that provide these components together at a reduced price compared to purchasing each service alone.

“We base our evaluation on your whole application, and take into account factors such as your background, experiences, perspectives, aspirations, values, and accomplishments..”
