Consultant Kelsey Kephart
I approached Kelsey after having spoken to 4 other consultants. Given the investment involved, I was skeptical about the value an admissions consultant would add to my applications. Making the decision to engage with Kelsey on my applications was one of the best decisions I've ever made.
From the first intro call, I could tell she was different from other consultants, not only did she have strong experience as an adcom at CBS to draw from, but she also brought her unique way of going about the application process. Coming into the process, I wasn’t super confident about my odds at the top schools. But Kelsey was great at helping me organize my thoughts and highlight my strengths. She’s really good at helping you weave a cohesive narrative and framing your background and accomplishments in the strongest way possible, regardless of the school.
The MBA admissions journey is long and has quite a few moving parts. Kelsey helped me compartmentalize each step, helping me stay focused and not stress. She is a great sounding board for ideas and will be honest when she thinks something is not going to work or will help frame something that has legs into something compelling.
Kelsey was super quick with turning things around and answering my many questions at any time of the day. She is generous with her time and I never felt rushed when talking with her. If you want someone who is professional, knows her stuff, and part therapist you cannot go wrong with Kelsey. I was very happy with how my admissions cycle played out and I truly believe I couldn't have achieved that without Kelsey.
