"The Best Partner You Can Have On The Journey"

“When I came to Petia over a year ago, anxious, I asked her for options at the end of the admissions process so that I could give the best chance to my partner and me to be in the same city, even though I was aiming for all top schools. I could immediately tell she believed in me and my pursuit of “options.” I had looked into other admissions consultants but had not felt that they were the best fit. Since I believed myself to be a strong writer, I wanted someone who would go beyond grammar edits and make the process joyful.

Throughout the year long process, Petia showed herself to have my best interests in mind – not to have me go to the “best” school possible but the best one for my situation and was a thought partner throughout the process. She was always extremely responsive, whether to cheerlead me or to assuage my anxiety, which was really important for me. I looked forward to our calls, and she always went above and beyond in helping me prep and pointing out the “why” behind her feedback.

Ultimately, I was given more options than I know what to do with now. I was admitted to Columbia, Wharton, MIT, UChicago Booth, Northwestern Kellogg, NYU Stern, and Yale with 3 full ride scholarships and 2 partial scholarships. I strongly recommend Petia to MBA applicants, but especially those who are willing to put in work themselves to understand themselves and the schools they’re applying to. I am incredibly grateful!”
