"With the initial goal of pursuing a masters in US, I was blinded by my excitement and the lack of knowledge about the fields and I jumped right into the application process. It was Amita and her team which guided and steered me in the right direction. After her critical analysis of my profile and background she not only helped me chose the right program but also the right college. Her extensive and deep understanding of the field, really helps the students to take informed decisions.

The immense help and personal attention given to every aspect of the application process in terms of SOP drafting, choosing the right people for recommendations and also a full fledged preparation via mock interviews got me ready to face the calls from world renowned colleges like Purdue, Northwestern, Duke and Case Western. It is always difficult to choose between the Perfect and the Right. Well Amita and her team at ivy-KAP helps and mentors students to achieve both. Right decisions for a Perfect Future." (Duke, Masters in Engineering Management)

"I certainly wouldn't have been able to get into the best B-school in Germany without Amita's help. When I started applying for B-schools, I was initially sceptical that my uncommon profile would be a hindrance in my application and screening process. However, with Amita's help and guidance I could sell my profile as my biggest strong point to the B-schools that I applied to. Her vast knowledge of the business schools was very helpful, as she could suggest the right B-schools to me which would appreciate my background and work experience. Her insights and suggestions on the interview processes and my application essays were pivotal in my success in getting through all the three B-schools that I had applied for." (Mannheim MBA)

"With over 5 years of work experience, I was confused if MSBA is a right choice for me. But then I got in touch with Shoba and she was very kind enough to walk me through the available options that I have and I was very happy since I would still be able to pursue a my dream. Throughout my application journey, from shortlisting universities to preparing me for US Visa Interview, Shoba provided a great support.

I am highly grateful to ivy -KAP team for taking my mock interviews and getting me Admissions Interview ready. With carefully crafted application that wouldn't have been possible without Shoba's guidance, I was able to secure a seat in prestigious MSBA program at USC Marshall!" (Marshall MSBA)

"I sought help from Shoba when I was stuck in my career and wanted to pursue MBA to kick-start my career in the right direction. Shoba was there for me at every step during the admission process. Her guidance helped my in securing solid scholarships at two of the three colleges I applied to. And now I am ready to embark my MBA journey in my dream college this Fall. Once again thanks Shoba." (Broad MBA)

"Things would have been much smoother had I known Shoba Ma'am early in my MBA application process. As a software professional with 9+ years of experience in the US, I decided to pursue a part-time MBA at one of the top B schools. Owing to my hectic work schedule and two months of preparation, I landed a GMAT score of 640. I had less than three weeks to come up with a world-class application to demonstrate my professional achievements, academic aptitude, and leadership potential for the Haas School of Business. I almost panicked! I'm most grateful that one of my friends introduced me to Shoba with whom she did her B-school applications.

I was able to submit my application on time only because of Shoba's vast expertise and work ethic. I personally struggled with highlighting the impact of my deep hi-tech work experience, with capturing my multifaceted competence, and with trimming the essays without losing the essence. Shoba made sure we conveyed a lot of my significant activities and accomplishments into a well-stitched story. She is a wizard who can turn anyone's novella into beautiful poems. I was invited for my interview within three working days of application submission. Today, I don't remember the number of mock interviews, I had with Amita and Shoba. They were wholeheartedly invested in my success.

My application experience with Haas made me supremely confident that I wield the power of choice. I enjoyed working with her again for my Booth application. I got into both Booth and Haas and decided to pursue my MBA at Booth. If I were to compare my journey in MBA to the metaphor of chiselling myself into a well-defined person, Shoba undertook the arduous task of the first cut i.e. to bring a form to a plain stone." (Booth EMBA)

"I wanted to say thank you for all your help. Your selection of schools was spot on. These admissions are all completely because of you and had I not had your careful eye to absolutely transform my essays, I wouldn't be in such luck. Thank you so much!." (NYU Undergraduate)

"Fresh out of University, aimed with a niche degree that included both psychology and science I was quite confused. After going through the websites of several education consulting firms, I found ivy-KAP online and decided to contact Ms Kapoor. I has a difficult time selecting which area in psychology I wanted to pursue. I was sure that I was not interested in Clinical or Counseling psychology, two of the most widely pursued areas. My interest has always been in learning about new cultures. Ms Kapoor helped me narrow down on both Organizational and Social psychology as areas to consider. She then helped me match universities in the UK with my preferences and helped me secure a place at the University of Exeters Master's in social and Organizational Psychology program. Her guidance and advise during the process was invaluable, especially when it came to formulating my SOP.

After completing my masters, I decided to continue studying and I applied to several programs in the US. Ms Kapoor was once again able to help me further narrow down on my area of interest and I was able to find a place at Texas A&M to do my second master's in Organizational psychology. I would definitely recommend ivy-KAP to anybody interested in studying abroad." (University of Exeter, Masters Social and Organizational Psychology, Texas A&M, Masters Organizational Psychology)

"I took the Masters in Management 'Basic Comprehensive Admissions Consulting Package' from ivy-KAP, and it was a great experience! Right from preparing my profile meticulously with a sharp CV and LinkedIn profile, to selecting schools suited to my preferences and capabilities, to celebrating my admits with me, ivy-KAP was there every step of the way. Ms. Shoba was a warm and compassionate mentor throughout the application process, and her belief in my abilities, as well as encouragement, helped me get through my dream schools!

In particular, the mock interviews and multiple SOP edits really helped while applying. Lastly, starting school in the year of COVID has been an uphill challenge, but ivy-KAP has stood by me, and constantly provided support in all ways possible. Would highly recommend it!" (ESSEC Business School, Masters in Management)

"Like every student, I aspired to pursue my education from the top schools across the world however owing to financial restraints inspite of having a strong profile this dream seemed near to impossible. Ivy-KAP helped achieve and fulfill this dream.

From the beginning the team was helpful and extremely efficient. Each and every minute detail was looked into during the application process. The team helped bring out my strengths and ambitions on paper. Though I never met the team, they were very responsive on email / phone throughout the admissions process. The personalized approach offered by Amita gave my application an edge right from the resume, SOP & essays. Each student's application is treated differently depending upon his /her strengths." (Chevening Scholarship. Warwick, Masters in Marketing and Strategy)

"I believe that with ivy-KAP I received two major things that were supremely important for me: a) Personalized attention b) understanding of the requirement. It's very pleasing to note that right from Resume writing to college finalisation to application submission to interview preparation, I was given ample time and feedback to improve my responses. Ms.Amita helped me in effectively presenting my professional and extra-curricular achievements and in establishing their coherence with my career goals. I believe that only a person who understands your career goals and your achievements could help you do that. So, a huge thank you for that. ivy-KAP's guidance and methodical approach towards both helping me finalise the schools and channelizing my efforts helped me power through the whole admission process through a supremely busy professional schedule. Finally, the intangible assets like building my confidence and presentation skills that I received from my association with ivy-KAP is much more than the money that I have paid for the services." (Broad MBA)

"Very Professional yet very personal. Total commitment towards students." (Scheller MBA)

"The services provided by Shoba were extremely helpful. A couple of things that I really appreciated about her style -
i. She gives very structured and thoughtful directions; her experience definitely helps her anticipate situations precisely
ii. She gives very relevant context about the schools and their respective processes; my target list of schools was very suited to my profile
iii. She doesn't spoon feed or over interfere; her involvement in the process seemed just about right
iv. She was the biggest confidence booster for me in the entire application process." (ISB PGP)

"My overall experience was good for the rendered services. Essay and resume editing helped me with the required introspection and understand the art of building the MBA applications.

The interactions with consultant were very pleasant and productive. Comprehensive interview preparations helped to build confidence for the final interviews." (SMU Singapore MBA)

"I am extremely grateful to Ms. Shoba and Ms Amita for helping me throughout at each step of the application and interview process. Being naive with no background or friends or relatives to assist me in this area, I had opted for services from ivy -KAP which was recommended to me by my senior KP. The prices were low as per the Industry standards as this is a new company, but my overall experience was worthy of each penny I paid. I was provided timely assistance in essay editing and robust communication between me and Shoba always helped me meet closely packed application deadlines. I was provided all the resources which were helpful to make an initial blueprint and then thorough editing and review by Shoba over calls and emails helped me frame them in a more attractive way for the admission directors. I got interview calls from all the colleges I applied to, hence, this in itself talks a lot about the quality of editing and application. I had multiple rounds of mock interviews with Shoba and Amita which helped me refine my communication and interviewing skills. The feedback they gave from their valuable experience was very useful and eventually all interview calls got converted to successful admits." (W.P Carey MBA)

"I found my consultant, Amita Kapoor, to be very helpful in guiding me through all the stages. She was readily available at all times, whether late hours, weekends or anything. She was thorough with all her research and her suggestions were very relevant and useful. She always had a very positive attitude and was very friendly throughout the process." (Macquarie MBA)

"I just got an email that I have been selected for the CBS MBA. Thank you so much for all your support! A big thank you and hug to Shoba for just being there all the time, whether I bothered her early in the morning or at night. I really couldn't have done it without your guidance and confidence!" (Copenhagen MBA)

"I have been admitted to the program at UNC. I really appreciate both of your help and guidance throughout the process. Thank you to both of you for your timely help and valuable expert guidance." (Kenan Flagler EMBA)

"I worked with Shoba right from the beginning to select the courses and colleges which I'm was going to apply to. She was very helpful and took the time to understand my interests and preferences, before suggesting courses and universities. She was very flexible with timing since I was in the US, at the time of applying to universities. She guided me through each step clearly and helped to complete the application process before the deadlines.

Once I started getting interview calls, she boosted my confidence by doing mock interviews. She helped to refine my answers and to be concise and clear. I was able to perform well in my first interview itself because of the mock sessions, which motivated me to answer confidently." (University of California Davis, MSBA)

"The services that I received at ivy-KAP well exceeded my expectations. Right from guiding me about the colleges to apply, to finally receiving an admission, Amita stood by me throughout the process. Under her guidance, I was able to sell my profile to the school in a convincing manner, and strengthen my chances of selection. With the help of Amita and Shoba, I could prepare well for my interview, which was at such short notice. I am glad that I registered with ivy-KAP and was able to fulfill my aim of getting into a top MBA school in Germany." (WHU MBA)

"Just like many others, I too realised that scoring a 700+ is easier than getting the admit at the right college. That's when my friend suggested me to talk to Shoba mam. The difference between other consultants and Shoba mam that I noticed is that unlike other consultants, Shoba mam doesn't keep the count of how many times she has reviewed the same essay for you or how many mock interviews she took for you. Her sole motive is to get you an apt admit based on your profile and skills. And thus, with multiple essay reviews and mock interviews, I was finally able to get the admit at NUS, Singapore. I'm very thankful to Shoba mam and Amita mam for their time and support for helping me start my MBA journey." (NUS S3 MBA)

"I'm a Mechanical Engineer with 13+ years of experience in Product Design and Development. I had a good career progression but wanted to enhance my management capabilities and grow vertically in the organization. Being a mother of 2 children and with a full time job, I could not get a very competitive score in GMAT, but was very keen on pursuing a good Management program.

I got ivy-KAP's reference through one of my friends, I thank him for connecting me to Shoba. ivy -KAP's focus is not just to place students but place them at the right place. ivy-KAP does a great job of aligning student's interest and background with the best programs. Despite being updated in the industry, I did not know where I could actually position myself on a global picture.

They helped me to tap into my achievements and accomplishments and present them effectively to the universities. Their knowledge and assessment about universities and schools is prefect. ivy-KAP has an extremely focused and professional approach. I finally received admits in 2 of the top Business Schools with Assistantship and stipend. Overall it was a very personalized and rewarding experience. Excellence in work and transparent approach takes a special mention. As far as value for money, I think I took back a lot than what I gave." (UConn MBA with Business Analytics)

"I am very much satisfied with the services rendered and I have only good things to say about Amita and Shoba, who really took out time and worked on these aspects. Amita did encourage me to apply to MSBA options, as my profile suited the course. But I was inclined more towards an MBA. We worked it out very well and now I am going to pursue a dual degree course - MBA + MSBA." (Jindal MBA)

"I am extremely grateful for ivy-KAP's help and support all through this ambitious journey of mine. Every time I was confused, I am very glad that I could turn to the team. Wish I had better words to express how very thankful I am." (HEC PARIS, Masters in Management)
