Student Testimonials

"I signed up for the 5 schools MBA package. My collaboration with Reach Ivy started with a counseling session and it took off there. The Brainstorming sessions have really helped me in understanding myself and my strengths and weaknesses better. Kudos to my BS Expert. I also appreciate one of the major out-of-box suggestions that came from one of my counselors and I believe that really helped me in making my application for Cornell stand out. Thanks to the Editing team for helping me enhance my essays. A special mention to Varsha for being very supportive, accommodative, and prompt all throughout the journey. Overall, I loved the structured and personalized approach of Reach Ivy and would certainly recommend these services to fellow MBA aspirants."

"The application process is that ReachIvy was very helpful. All the sessions that were conducted really boosted my chances. I am also very grateful that editors were provided to me even at the last moment. The overall help provided by ReachIvy editors, brainstormer as well as the coordinator made all the difference and made my applications much better. I am really expecting good results from at least more than half of the colleges I applied to."

"Thank you so so much for all your help over the past couple of years! I will always be grateful. Below, I have written my testimonial from my experience of counseling with you: 

I am so grateful to have gone through the college app process under the skilful guidance of Vibha and all of team ReachIvy. They were instrumental in familiarising me with the processes of shortlisting colleges, preparing to apply to them, and even picking a college after I got my decisions. Along the way, Vibha and team taught me several important skills such as those of brainstorming, storytelling, packaging, and reflection. These not only aided my applications, but have also equipped me for the future. Finally, the fact that I was able to REACH my dream school speaks for itself!"

"Well coordinated and encouraging. I have received acceptance letter from LSE and from JHU today along with the Dean’s scholarship of $20,000 from JHU. I thank Vibha Madam for her constant encouragement and motivation to apply for the Early Decision round; The ReachIvy team for coordinating and being open to answering my concerns; my essay editors who helped me complete and submit my applications within the stipulated period. This wouldn’t have been possible until the team collectively wouldn’t have worked to help me. Thank you so much!"

"Supportive and patient! By the end of my 11th Grade, I wasn't sure if I wanted to pursue my further studies in The United States. My family and I were in a deep dilemma. After talking to many, we finally decided to take the big step and apply to schools abroad. While I was relieved for a mere second, the pressure of the application process soon caught up. This was not a cake-walk for me as being a CBSE student, l was completely unaware of the process. I jumped in and tried to push my way up with all the support I could get from my family. My dad introduced me to ReachIvy.com. The ReachIvy experts provide complete guidance and help in each step of the application. I was able to craft winning applications based on my profile. The team was always supportive and listened to my concerns and suggested amazing solutions for my essays. The final result was breath-taking! I am now studying Chemical Biology at The University of California, Berkeley which was always one of my dream universities. I am so sure without ReachIvy's help I would have not been able to reach where I am today. I will be eternally grateful to the ReachIvy Team for everything!"

"ReachIvy has helped me prepare better for my college applications. I signed up for ReachIvy’s ‘Essay editing and Application’ package. The Brainstorming calls were extremely professional and really helpful for guiding me in building my application. All the suggestions made by my appointed counselor were based on my interests after a thorough discussion. Later, I also took their Interview Prep package. Within the package, along with an experienced counselor to prepare me for my interview, ReachIvy also included an extremely comprehensive interview questionnaire that covered all the different angles of possible questions that can be asked in an interview. Thank you ReachIvy! I got admits to my target schools because of your expert support."

"ReachIvy Team is highly responsive! I signed up for the end to end services of MBA application – school shortlisting, brainstorming, essay editing, and interview preparation. The ReachIvy team was highly responsive and ensured they worked on my profile, helped me build robust applications and boosted my confidence through rigorous interview prep sessions. The entire team involved in the application process took ownership of their work. Timely feedback and follow-up from the team helped me complete my work well within the deadline. Thanks to ReachIvy, I secured an admit from ISB and Oxford this year.!"

"Helping with high-quality applications to top B-schools. What makes ReachIvy different from others is that the team invests in you - both personally and professionally. Right from the start of my journey until the end, I met extremely talented individuals, each one of whom has played vital parts in my applications. RI team made me stretch myself to such extents that it helped me go beyond what was possible. The most striking aspect of RI is its capability to capture the length and breadth coverage of the applicant’s life. The detailed and thorough analysis that RI made me do at every step, played an instrumental role in setting in the right perspective in my mind and helped me channelize my mind in the right direction always. Besides, helping one choose the right school-list, highlighting the right parts of one’s candidature, linking one’s academic and professional journey rightly with the future goals, editing essays sharply, answering to every query justly and promptly, making one go above and beyond while drafting resumes, preparing intensely for the interviews, and giving their expert yet honest and personalized advice post-applications – they do it all. I would highly recommend anyone who’s looking not just for making high-quality applications to top B-schools but also for truly reflecting on their own life to definitely reach out to ReachIvy! A special thanks to Vibha ma’am, Varsha, Juhi, AJ, GN, SG, AC, ND, SD, AB, MP, and Archana for constantly being there all the time and for being such a fun team to work with!! I absolutely enjoyed my time with ReachIvy!"

"Brainstorming session helped me realize the strength of my application. I would recommend ReachIvy to everyone who wants to craft the strongest application for applying to their dream universities!” I got admitted to 4 schools for the MHCI program including Carnegie Mellon University & Georgia Tech, with the help of the ReachIvy application Scholarship I won. A lot of my time was saved as the entire process is online. All I had to do was upload the required documents and drafts to schedule sessions or get edits and wait for feedback! We started with a Brainstorming session which helped me realize the strength of my application, followed by essays where the editor provided me with a detailed and concise outline for each essay. I was lucky enough to be awarded the ReachIvy Scholarship that helped me reach my desired program."

"Creating high-quality applications to top B-schools. So many of our dreams at first seem impossible but as one says, setting a goal is the first step in turning the invisible into the visible. I wouldn’t have been so confident hadn’t I enrolled in ReachIvy. To be honest, when I enrolled, I was a little skeptical cause the entire process is online and I was so confused about how things will take place but now I feel I could not have asked for a better admission consulting firm to work with. Firstly, thanks a lot NIDHI PAREKH for referring me to this wonderful institution. With great gratitude I would like to thank VIBHA KAZI Ma’am who has been the backbone of this institution, she is one of the sweetest I have ever spoken to and I personally feel her passion is to be the bridge between the students and their goals. What makes ReachIvy different from others is that they’re not only professional but at the same time they delve deep into our personal lives to get to know us better. In fact, I had not known myself so much until the brainstorming session. SHYAM GURSAHANI Sir, GAARGI DESAI and GARIMA RANA have been on their toes constantly. They asked me to brief them about my entire life, right from the events I participated in school to my contributions at UCD. It is not easy as it sounds, the brainstorming session went for days where I kept thinking of what have I done and how have I developed myself in the past years. The brainstorming session helped me not just to frame the essay and my SOP, but it has given me much more confidence and a clearer picture of my Goals After the brainstorming session the team also helped me build a resume that stands out. Thanks to the experts the resume has been straight and crisp to the point. I believe the team has done a wonderful job and anyone who reads my resume gets a clear picture of my past experience, my strengths, and of course about my achievements. The entire team has been so professional and my journey with them has been very smooth, this wouldn’t have been possible if JUHI ma’am and VARSHA ma’am wouldn’t have helped me out through all the obstacles and issues I faced. I would highly recommend ReachIvy to everybody who’s looking for making high-quality applications to top B-schools."

"Help with building structured answers. The ReachIvy.com expert helped me articulate my story far more impactfully than I could imagine. I approached ReachIvy.com to prepare for my Harvard Business School interview. I had reached out to the team very late and did not have much time to prepare. The team generously accommodated my request and scheduled my sessions on priority. I would strongly recommend ReachIvy.com. Thanks to them I have an admit to my dream school"

"Supportive, dedicated, and a superb guiding force. Would highly recommend it to anyone who wishes to pursue their dreams of studying abroad, the team is very supportive throughout the journey. They are extremely dedicated towards their students and take great personal pains to ensure our success, they have been a guiding force in all my decisions regarding the process, all in all, had a very good and personalized experience, couldn’t have achieved my dreams without them."

"Constant Follow-ups & Professional Work. Every expert at ReachIvy that I worked with pushed me to deliver my best. A friend who had worked with ReachIvy recommended I work with them for my MBA applications. I come from a non-traditional background and hence I was wary of any admissions consultants. However, I felt at ease with ReachIvy right from the start as we completed the college selection process. Once we had shortlisted the colleges, we started with the brainstorming process which made me deeply introspect everything I had done so far and put it into perspective. Even though the process is online, it is totally seamless, with the right forms provided at every stage, making sure I was focusing only on the content. The best part about ReachIvy was the constant Follow-ups, making sure I was on the right timeline despite my busy schedule. By the time I finished working on my applications, I was almost sure of interview calls. For my interviews, I got a chance to prepare with the CEO Vibha Kagzi, the founder of ReachIvy, whose guidance totally changed the way I approached interviews. I ended up getting waitlisted at both the schools I applied to, and finally got accepted into the Ross School of Business. This is a dream come true and I’m forever grateful to ReachIvy, for without their professional assistance this would not have been made possible."

"Deep Knowledge of the admission cycle. I am Anik Shah and I got admitted to Tepper School of Business for Fall 2020. Tepper was one of my dream schools and ReachIvy helped me a lot throughout this admission process. I signed up for their 3 college applications and brainstorming session package. It was really easy to work with the ReachIvy team online as they follow a systematic approach for every college. The brainstorming session helped me not just to arrange the content on paper, but to bring more clarity in my career path well. The resumes and forms are so detailed that it helped me gather all the minute details that I need for this process, which I could not have been able to otherwise. RI Experts gave me different suggestions on how an essay should look like for Tepper and what the schools are actually looking for. They helped me write an essay that was unique and showcased my life experiences in a proper theme. I am really thankful to ReachIvy and their experts for my achievement and I would strongly recommend it because they possess a deep knowledge of the admission cycle and they help students in every possible way, in fact, they help you reach the dream college."

"Well Organised and Structured. I took help from ReachIvy for my full-time MBA applications and for their interview preparation service later. I applied to Booth in Round-2 and was fortunate to receive an admit. ReachIvy helped refine my application extensively. The brainstorming expert assigned to me helped me refine my goals and articulate them in a manner acceptable to business schools. This was of invaluable help to my application. ReachIvy’s essay service is also great; I agreed completely with the recommendations made by them and was happy with the final drafts that I submitted. I would not have cleared the interview without the help of the Interview prep expert. He was direct and incisive with his suggestions and helped me convey my strengths and weaknesses, as well as my enthusiasm for the school. ReachIvy follows a structured process that limits connectivity with counsellors outside of your designated sessions, which you would not find with smaller or freelancer counsellors. Even so, I feel that the experience of ReachIvy’s counsellors makes up for this. They know what schools look for and are able to advise accordingly. Overall, I’m very happy with the help received."

"Quick and efficient online support. The journey with Reachivy was more important than the eventual destination because although I initially set out to reach my dream MBA school, I became a more hardworking, compassionate and understanding person as a result of my profile-building. I thank ReachIvy from the bottom of my heart for guiding me through the last three years of my life. This personal improvement will be immensely useful during my MBA and the years beyond. In my first call in early 2017, ReachIvy counsellor detailed the various improvements I needed in my profile before applying to my dream business schools. The tasks I needed to accomplish were daunting. I felt like giving up but I decided to trust in what the counsellor told me. Following my counsellor's guidance, I had already ticked off some of the tasks that felt daunting earlier. By year-end, I was doing really well! I spent the next year, building my profile and getting adjusted to my new job at Microsoft that year. From June 2019 onwards ReachIvy counsellor provided me excellent guidance to shortlist colleges –and on strategizing and writing the essays. I applied to all those colleges and managed to get shortlisted to some of the interviews. At this stage, ReachIvy counsellors prepared me felicitously for the interviews. I eventually got offers from Berkeley Haas, my dream MBA school, and UCLA!"

"ReachIvy does its part well. I signed up with ReachIvy barely a month before the first deadline of my university and was pleasantly surprised to discover that they had a separate time-bound module for all possible questions/problems a candidate might face in the admission process, ding analysis to waitlist letters. Admission is a stepwise logical process and ReachIvy seems to have broken it down just fine. They guide you to discover your strengths and weaknesses, work on them, and portray them in the best possible way. While it is on the student to utilize their expertise, ReachIvy does its part well. Thank you ReachIvy and good luck."
