The MBA Application Process: Strengthening Your Candidacy

  • Sia Admissions Consulting ™ 320 Walnut Street Philadelphia, PA United States (map)

You already know the MBA application process is competitive. But too many high-achievers focus on surface-level tweaks—when what matters most is strategy, story, and self-awareness.

In this session, Susan Berishaj, Founder of Sia Admissions and trusted advisor to applicants at M7 and top-15 programs, will break down how to build a compelling MBA candidacy—one that showcases your strengths, addresses gaps, and aligns with what schools are really looking for.

This isn’t about generic tips. It’s about high-level positioning that separates the exceptional from the merely qualified.

What You’ll Learn:

  • The key attributes top programs evaluate—and how to audit yourself against them

  • How to identify and close gaps in your profile (academics, work history, goals clarity, etc.)

  • Strategic use of time before deadlines to amplify your impact

  • Common missteps—even from high-performing candidates—and how to avoid them

Who Should Attend

This session is for serious MBA applicants targeting Round 1 or Round 2 at M7, Ivy League, or other globally recognized business schools. If you’re ready to think critically, act intentionally, and elevate your candidacy, this is for you.
