Testimonials for Michelle Stockman

I’m in! Thank you for your pivotal support. I really believe you made a significant impact on my application and acceptance.

Accepted to Stanford GSB

Michelle took me from a completely blank slate to three well-crafted essays for my Columbia Business School application. I started out thinking that my application was undifferentiated, but Michelle helped me draw on my experience, and asked probing questions to find unique points in my story. She then helped me find my “voice”, and write about my experiences in a clear, concise manner. I would highly recommend Michelle to other applicants.

I had the pleasure of working with Michelle Stockman as my consultant and wanted to share a review about her. Working with Michelle was a game-changer. She helped me pinpoint what motivates me professionally and then helped me turn that into powerful essays that landed me a full-tuition acceptance at Haas (which I accepted as you can see from my email address :)), a half-tuition acceptance at Yale SOM and an acceptance to UCLA Anderson. What stood out about Michelle is that she was very transparent with her feedback, which I loved, and was always available. Especially during the winter holidays I probably sent her a message on WhatsApp every day and she would always respond in a matter of minutes! Thank you again for founding Accepted — it helped me a lot in my MBA journey! I look forward to staying in touch with you and Michelle.

From our first meeting, I was impressed with Michelle’s exceptional ability to listen and understand my personal story, which really helped in making my university application stand out. First, she spent time understanding my personal story and what my goals were, providing a deep dive into the nuances that could make a difference. Second, she explained how the application process works and laid out a clear timeline that helped me stay on track, ensuring I managed every aspect of the complex application efficiently. And finally, when it came to writing the essays, she went beyond basic editing by helping me uncover unique aspects of my experience that I hadn’t thought to emphasize. Her insights were tailored specifically to my needs, making every piece of advice deeply relevant. Thanks to Michelle, I was accepted into my top-choice university with a significant scholarship. It’s rare to find someone so committed and capable of providing advice that resonates on such a professional level.

Columbia is my first choice, so my application process is over and a less anxious holiday season is ahead. Michelle was instrumental in the process and I could not be more excited about the help I received and the outcome of it. Besides great editing help our conversations and her guidance definitely brought the best out of my essays. My suggestion to you is to give her a big bonus!!!! Thank you again for the best wishes and I wish you all the best with this product that makes a definite impact.

I want to inform you about my application status. I got accepted at UCLA Anderson!!! Finally, I got in! I am waiting for results from other schools. But, I want to express my thankfulness for your assistance. I would like to attribute this glory to you. Once again thank you.

Accepted to UCLA Anderson

Michelle was very helpful and she brought in a lot of valuable feedback and insight throughout the process. Her comments were very precise in terms of what she expected and the areas that she wanted the applicant to dig in more. It was definitely great working with her.

Accepted to Business School

10 for everything from me. I was in a particularly bad situation after being heavily let down by Competitor X, I couldn’t trust what they were telling me after giving me conflicting feedback from their so called indecisive “team of experts”. I had 2 days to go and Michelle responded immediately and was ready to support in every way possible. Great constructive feedback and straight to the point. I could tell that I was dealing with a true professional and this has left me with much confidence in my application. Should I get an interview, I hope Michelle will be available to prepare me.

Business School Applicant

Without Michelle I wouldn’t have successfully submitted a compelling application to Stern. She did a marvelous job in turning my bland and generic sentences into crisp and relevant statements. I was completely off topic on one of my essays and she provided exceptional guidance that prevented a catastrophic mistake. Her greatest asset is her ability to articulate every idea with a punch which brought my essays to life. Michelle took a personal interest in my application and her out of the box thinking helped me present my story in a very creative way. She was really fun to work with and I hope I find people like her in business school. Thank you Michelle!

Accepted to NYU Stern

I received the letter today and it read: Congratulations!… The AdCom has accepted your ED app to CBS! Phew! I just want to again thank you for all your help! There is no way I could have done it without you, and a double thanks on the Essay Tips/Construction. I have already used your comments to approach other essays I’ve been writing, and it’s made the process much easier and added a lot more confidence to my writing. Awesome, keep up the good work, and I guess you can at least add one more to the list of 40 or so successful applicants on your resume, haha. Thanks again and Happy Holidays! Now I am definitely STOKED!

Accepted to Columbia Business School

I am delighted to inform you that I have been admitted to the MBA programs of London Business School and Kellogg (1Y) in Round 1. I would like to highlight that Michelle helped me during the process and was extremely professional and understanding through out. She pushed me to bring out my best stories and did not give up till she was satisfied with the results. She made sure to get back to me on my essays/queries ASAP and if ever I needed any advice on an urgent basis, she was always there for me. I was extremely lucky to have her guidance and would recommend her to the fellow applicants.

Accepted to London Business School and Kellogg

Michelle did an outstanding job working with me. She is a professional with great talent. I will say that what makes her outstanding are her great editorial skills combined with her personality and coaching ability. Her knowledge base is always spot on. Accepted provides an outstanding service with outstanding professionals that are subject matter experts.

I just wanted to write you a quick note and give you some feedback on my work with Michelle Stockman over the last month. I consider myself to be a pretty solid writer, but I chose to work with your company on my essays because I think I’m very borderline. Throughout this process, Michelle has provided nothing but insightful comments and very constructive criticism. The fact that my company has a FREE service for employees and I chose to pay Accepted instead is a great testament to the work we have done together.

Today I finished working with Michelle on 8 essays for INSEAD and overall I can simply say that her support was perfect.

Accepted to INSEAD

I’d like to inform you that I am very satisfied with Michelle’s work. She’s helped me write an excellent application essay (MBA), and the process was very smooth and efficient. A friend that got accepted to Columbia Business School two years ago recommended that I work with Michelle, and I’m glad I did.

Accepted to Columbia Business School

I am writing you this e-mail for two reasons:

  1. To let you know that I got accepted to CBS (Jterm 2019)
  2. To thank Michelle for her work, dedication and great advice
I worked with Michelle on my CBS application as well as my INSEAD application. Thankfully, I got accepted in both schools. I truly believe that Michelle’s input was crucial and highly important for the success of my application.

A big thanks to the accepted team - you guys do great things! :)

Accepted to Columbia Business School

I just wanted to thank you and your team - mainly Michelle - for the support on my CBS essays. I heard back from Columbia today, and got the final acceptance to their MBA program. Michelle was great to work with; she was very responsive and she really knows what the CBS adcom looks for. I had started with a certain story in mind, and she helped me change it into something more attractive, more well-rounded and more fit for the CBS spirit. Hopefully will hear some good new from Harvard soon - Michelle also supported me on this.
