What's included in the Graduate Admissions Consulting Comprehensive 10 Hour Package?

Depending on where you are in the application process, your graduate admissions consulting package includes whatever guidance you might need. This package could cover developing an application timing strategy, discussing specific schools and what they seek in candidates, critiquing and discussing several drafts of your essay set, reviewing the resume, and prepping you for interviews. See the timeline below for how long each application "item" typically takes the consultant to gauge your package selection.

Each package kicks off with a 15 minute introductory call, during which you and the consultant exchange contact information and briefly strategize how you will structure your sessions together. From there, you and the consultant will act as a team, attacking your applications from the most ideal angles for you. You will also receive free, immediate access to our Online Toolkit which keeps your admissions efforts focused and organized.

Many of our students use their Graduate Admissions Consulting Comprehensive 10 Hour Package for:
  • Exchanging ideas on how to best package your candidacy, including the theme for your
    application(s)
  • Analyzing the specific personalities of your targeted schools and how to best customize your applications
  • Assessing the likelihood of acceptance to your target schools and refining the list as necessary
  • Developing an action plan for meeting your application deadlines
  • Brainstorming possible essay topics that reflect your personal traits, experiences, and accomplishments
  • Reviewing and critiquing several essay sets for consistency and depth
  • Prepping you for interviews, enabling you to anticipate questions and prepare responses
  • Reviewing your resume to ensure it exhibits your achievements strongly

THE KAPLAN DIFFERENCE
Richard, remember me? The one who wanted to send in a 10-page personal statement until you came along? I wanted to let you know I got into my first choice—Stanford!
