Working with ARINGO was absolutely one of THE best decisions we made during our daughter’s MBA application journey. She applied during her senior year of college, and because she didn’t have traditional full-time work experience yet, we were unsure how her profile would be viewed by Top-15 MBA programs.
At first, we made the mistake of assuming the most expensive consultant would be the best choice. That experience didn’t work out as he did not not share our vision or have the confidence to position our daughter as a strong, unconventional candidate. Finding ARINGO changed everything!
From the very beginning, their team truly understood our daughter’s story and her potential. They helped transform what we initially saw as challenges into strengths—highlighting her internship experience and her lifelong commitment to dance into powerful examples of leadership, discipline, teamwork, and responsibility.
Mark and Jen were nothing short of phenomenal throughout the entire process. Their guidance on applications and interview preparation was thoughtful, strategic, and incredibly supportive. They believed in her, helped her tell her story authentically, and prepared her to present herself with confidence.
The result? She was admitted to each of her Top-4 MBA programs and ultimately accepted the offer from her “dream” MBA program. Even now, it still feels a bit surreal.
As a parent, I can’t overstate the value of the expertise, encouragement, and peace of mind ARINGO provided. The return on investment was tremendous, and they took an enormous amount of stress off our family during what can be a very overwhelming process. With so many MBA consultants out there, it’s easy to get distracted trying to evaluate and compare them all. Save yourself the time and frustration of vetting multiple firms only to be disappointed by overcommitment and underperformance.
Without any reservation, I wholeheartedly recommend ARINGO to any MBA applicant—especially those with unique backgrounds who need help telling their story in a compelling way.
In closing, my wife and I are incredibly grateful for everything ARINGO did for our daughter and our family throughout this journey. We would gladly welcome anyone to contact us if you have specific questions about our experience.
Definitely 5/5 stars!
