It is easy to comment, but it is tough to structure the essay from the perspective of the applicant and turn the essay into a winning application essay.
3) Aligning with the Culture of the School
A big part of editing and guiding applicants is in educating them about the culture of the school
Some schools have very ‘specific’ traits that they are looking for in an applicant.
If you don’t highlight them and lean towards general leadership or cultural narratives, the essay won’t work.
I will guide you through the writing process.
I will also iteratively edit the essays without losing your original voice.
Virtual Events
The virtual events include Top Business Schools Present: Military in Business on 18 November, where prospective students can hear from leading schools about the MBA experience for military and veteran candidates. On 24 November, Tuck offers two virtual sessions: Conversation with Tuck Admissions, an online Q&A where applicants can clarify their questions about the application process, and AMA with Tuck Women in Business, an open conversation with current students to discuss student life, career pathways, and the Tuck community.
