International MBA applications

Choose the right schools. Then make your case.

Applying abroad means making several decisions at once: where you want to work, what you can spend, which programmes fit your experience, and how to explain your goals. We help you work through those decisions and build an application that sounds like you.

Who we work with

Applicants looking beyond one country

We support candidates considering MBA programmes in Europe, the UK, the US and Asia, including INSEAD, London Business School, Oxford Saïd, Cambridge Judge, HEC Paris and NUS. We also work with applicants weighing these options against Indian programmes such as ISB and IIMA PGPX.

You can come with a school list or with an open question about whether an international MBA makes sense for you. If you are reapplying, we start with what changed since your last application and what still needs work.

The work

Where we can help

We focus on the decisions and writing that actually go into an application.

Choosing schools

We weigh programme fit against your career goals, geography, work experience, budget and the time you can take away from work. A famous name alone is not a useful shortlist.

Building your application

We work through your goals, resume, essays and application form. The aim is to find specific examples from your experience and make each answer relevant to the school asking it.

Recommendations and interviews

We help you think through recommender choice and what your recommender has actually seen you do. For interviews, we practise with questions suited to the programme and give direct feedback.

If you only need help with one stage, such as interview preparation, tell us what you are working on. We can discuss that separately from a full application.

Our approach

Specific to you and to each school

A good application starts with evidence. We look for moments when you made a decision, changed something, or learned from a mistake. Then we decide which examples answer each school's question. The same career story may need a different emphasis for different programmes; copying one essay across applications usually misses that point.

We will challenge vague claims and ask for details. Your application should still sound like the person who will sit in the interview. No consultant can promise an admit, and we will not tell you otherwise.

Common questions

Before you start

Do I need a final school list before speaking to you?

No. School choice can be the first thing we work through together.

Can I get help with interviews only?

Yes. We offer standalone interview preparation and school-specific mock interviews.

Should I apply abroad or choose an Indian MBA?

Start with your target job and location, costs, programme length and the roles available after graduation. Our international versus Indian MBA guide is a useful starting point.
