Sia Admissions Founder Susan Berishaj is covering this live on YouTube, May 7: how admissions committees actually evaluate goals statements, who is in the room, and why the goals statement most applicants submit wouldn't survive that conversation.

Hey, I would like to know which Admission consultancy agencies among the dozens around, specialise in dealing with old, non-US native applicants, from core healthcare background applying to East Coast top MBA programs?

That's not really how it works with MBA Admissions Consultancies. We all work with clients from a variety of industries, mainly the ones that feed into MBA recruitment (consulting, finance, etc.) What you might want to do is work with a consultant (independent like myself, or someone at a large consultancy) who has a healthcare background, if you feel that would enhance the quality of the application materials. It might or might not - one benefit of our services is our *outside perspective* because the adcom members will not all have a healthcare background.
How old are you? If you have the credentials, I would definitely apply to Stanford MSx, a 1-year in-residence program, and MIT Sloan Fellows. Both have an average age around 36. I would recommend Cornell 1-year MBA, the 1-year Tech MBA if applicable. You might need to focus less on geography and think about programs that accept older applicants: one year programs are a better bet than 2, because they attract career maximizers more so than changes.
Kellogg. Emory both have 1-year MBAs. European schools are far more receptive to older students, so there's a good shot if you apply there.

Hi there - I have a lot of experience working with older candidates (both older in terms of FT programs, but also those applying to PT and Exec or sometimes both). Would be happy to discuss with you, and I can tell you a bit about the folks I've worked with in the past and your situation. Feel free to send me a direct email to setup a time if you like!
Kindly,
Meredith
