Hey, @Doyinsola3

With a strong academic background and five years of experience in finance, you're a competitive candidate for top MBA programs, particularly those in the United States. As a Nigerian applicant, scholarships can be an important factor not just financially but also in strengthening your visa application.

To strengthen your application for a consulting pivot, clearly highlight your goal and relevant experiences. Emphasize how your finance skills and achievements can benefit consulting. Use specific examples and quantify your successes. Show your leadership potential through work, extracurriculars, and volunteer activities.


Customize each essay to fit the school's program and culture, mentioning their consulting tracks. Talk to alumni in consulting for insights and recommendation letters. Use the optional essay to explain any issues in your application. Highlight these points and apply for scholarships to boost your chances of getting into top MBA programs.

Hey @Doyinsola3
I am Priyanka, Client Manager at ARINGO. Speaking about your profile, your five years in banking will offer a solid base to you for shifting into consulting. You are aiming a bit high with schools like Booth, Darden, and Stern but let's be real, your GRE will be a pretty big hurdle. You will really need to significantly boost your score.
Plus, it's crucial to have a clear story about why you want to switch to consulting and how an MBA will help you with achieving your goals.
