MBA admission made easy

Hi! I’m Candy Lee LaBalle, and I believe in a heart+head approach to MBA admissions consulting.

I believe that applying to an MBA is a personal experience of self-awareness. It deserves to be treated with respect and awe, unwavering support and kindness too. This heart-focused approach ensures that you apply with confidence.

I’m also very good at what I do. I know the admissions process inside & out, what top schools are seeking, and how to help you apply with clarity. This no-nonsense, head-focused approach gets results; just ask my +700 admits (and counting).

Let me show you how my heart+head approach can help you get admitted too

Why do I have only three products?

Because applying to an MBA is confusing enough, I want to make it easier. Taking the mystery, and misery, out of applying is one of my missions. Plus, after +20 years and +700 applicants, I know what you need, even if you don’t. And, I’ll never, ever sell what you don’t.

That’s just part of my values.
