All I Needed and More!

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by score report [?]

Working with Zach and Fortuna was one of the best decisions I made throughout this application process. As a "non-traditional" MBA applicant, I was reticent to apply to reach programs. Zach's encouraging and introspective comments boosted my confidence and supported me in crafting a wonderful application. On top of the guidance on MBA applications, Zach helped reframe my thoughts on my future career goals and helped me refine my story. Thanks to his insight and thoughtful feedback, I received an admit to the school of my dreams in an extremely competitive year. In addition, I had the chance to interact and work with other Fortuna staff members, who I found to be extremely supportive and professional. Highly recommend working with Zach and the rest of the Fortuna team.

Zach Exceeded Expectations

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by school email address [?]

Zach is a fantastic Admissions Consultant. The first thing that struck me about Zach are his strong listening and teamwork skills. Zach listens intently, raises thoughtful questions, and is always eager to collaborate. These skills, coupled with his design and philosophy experience, allows him to bring creative ideas to the table. Zach was invaluable in helping me with tasks both big and small, from refining my story and future goals to word edits and a more effective resume format. His broad experience across many domains really shined through here. Finally, when I had questions about a specific school, Zach went above and beyond to solicit information (and time) from other consultants at Fortuna. In summary: Zach really cares… and that’s important. I give Zach my highest recommendation and am very pleased with my ROI.
