Menlo Coaching is the world’s leading premium admissions consultancy and test prep firm. Founded in 2012 by Alice van Harten and David White, Menlo was built on a simple premise: admissions to elite institutions is a high-stakes, one-shot opportunity—too important to entrust to part-time contractors or generic advice. While many firms rely on seasonal staff with large client loads, we take a "total overkill" approach. We employ full-time, professional coaches and tutors who maintain the lowest caseloads in the industry (12–15 clients per year). This ensures deep, individualized support, unlimited 1:1 guidance, and candid strategy. Our Global Scope We support ambitious applicants at every pivotal academic and career stage: - Undergraduate Admissions: Strategic positioning for the Ivy League, Oxbridge, and top-tier global universities. - MBA & Executive MBA: Specialized consulting for M7 and T10 programs, featuring insights from former Admissions Directors at Stanford GSB and Dartmouth Tuck. - Law School: Expert guidance for T14 (JD/LLM) programs. - Graduate & Professional Programs: Support for selective master’s and research-based degrees. - Career Coaching: Helping students and professionals secure elite internships and postgraduate roles to maximize degree ROI. Elite Test Prep A successful application begins with a competitive score. Our in-house, 99th-percentile instructors provide private tutoring and courses for the GMAT, GRE, LSAT, SAT, ACT, and Executive Assessment. Proven Excellence - Poets&Quants: Ranked #1 or #2 firm-wide (2022–2025) with near-perfect Client Satisfaction Scores (up to 10.0/10). - College Consensus: Named among the Best College and MBA Admissions Consultants for 2024 and 2025. - Ethics: Active members of AIGAC and NACAC.
