Client Testimonials
I have submitted [EMBA] applications to Wharton, Kellogg, and Booth and have completed my interview coaching. Working with Leah was an extremely positive experience and I valued her insights tremendously throughout the entire process. Regardless of how my candidacy works out, I truly saw the value of your services.

I just wanted to let you know that I got into Booth, so thanks for all your help on those essays/ppt. Unfortunately, Kellogg gave me a “no” a few weeks ago after being on the waitlist, but I am OK with it. I’m deciding between Stern and Booth, so I’m in a good situation. Thanks, again, for all your help.

I AM IN TUCK!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH! I would like to personally thank you for your tremendous patience with my ramblings! I could not have achieved the outcome without your help and guidance. Interestingly this was my first application and top choice!!!!!!

I did not make it into any of the schools that I have applied to this year. But before you close the case on my file, I wanted to provide you with some feedback on my experience. At first, I honestly thought that your rate was very high relative to the value that I anticipated receiving. However, I was totally WRONG… Alex’s leadership and expertise during the engagement process was impeccable. He was very responsive to all my requests, and in all cases, exhibited a laser focused military precision in everything that he delivered to me. Overall, under his leadership, I was able to reflect on myself and learn much more than “just” applying to MBA programs. I want to thank you for this great opportunity and I am now a true believer in The MBA Exchange.

EMBA Admission
For more experienced professionals seeking to accelerate their career growth, there is no better resource than an Executive MBA education from a top-tier school. Our clients include individuals who will be sponsored by their current employer as well as those who will be self-sponsored. The MBA Exchange consulting team has unequalled expertise and experience in helping applicants to gain admission to such programs.
For many working professionals, an Executive MBA (EMBA) degree is a better option than full-time or part-time. Classes typically meet on alternate weekends, with students meeting together on campus for several weeks during the academic year. These individuals tend to be age 35+ and on the fast track at a major corporation or age 45+ and heading their own organization. In either case, the rewards are high and the competition for admission to top schools is heated.
The MBA Exchange has helped applicants from a wide range of backgrounds to gain entry to top-ranked EMBA programs including Wharton, Chicago Booth, Northwestern Kellogg, Columbia, Berkeley Haas and UCLA. For a free evaluation of your EMBA candidacy, please complete the evaluation request form.
