Similar in design to our comprehensive school packages, this high-impact package for college juniors and seniors considering 2+2 or Deferred MBA Entry Programs is designed to guide you carefully through the entire application process. You will work with a dedicated Expert Coach who is well versed in the unique criteria and characteristics of deferred entry programs, with input from Fortuna’s resume specialist and a mid-point review of your entire application by another expert coach. We will help shape your narrative from your undergraduate experiences and connect them to the application presentations, using compelling examples that highlight your strengths and plans for how you would leverage the MBA for professional and personal growth. Like all of our packages, our 2+2/Deferred Entry is highly personalized and focused on the specifics of your plans in the next 2+ years.

We’ll take you through an in-depth reflection process. Together, we’ll discuss and develop your goals and aspirations, taking into account both your desired MBA experience and your post-MBA plans.

We’ll help you decide which schools best fit your goals and ambitions, and evaluate your chances of admission.

Develop a compelling case for your candidacy for your chosen schools. We’ll work together ensuring you have a clear story to tell, a plan for mitigating any weaknesses, and a timeline for your plan of attack.

Planning a school visit? Corresponding with members of the school’s admissions office? Make sure these interactions reflect well on your candidacy – every single “touch-point” can affect the final decision.

Don’t get torpedoed by weak recommendations. This is a critical step that needs careful planning. Get advice on how to choose your recommenders and prepare them to write an impactful letter on your behalf.
