Admissions Consulting

With more than 25 years of experience, the MBA Counseling area aims to guide professionals who wish to pursue an MBA abroad (or other programs, such as LLM, undergrad, etc.). The orientation goes through all stages of the application process: from choosing the program suited to your needs, to preparing for the admissions process for the world’s most competitive business schools, such as Harvard, MIT, and Stanford, among others. Almost 2,000 clients have already been served, with a 92% approval rate and more than 3,000 attained admissions, out of which 76% lie in the top 15 business schools in the USA, and the top 3 in Europe. The guidance on the strategies and the preparation of applications is personalized and individual. In order to offer a full-service solution to our customers, MBA Empresarial has teamed up with Philadelphia Consulting, JCaro and The MBA Wire, and internationally with Veritas Prep, a global leader in online preparation for the GMAT. From this strategic alliance MBA Talent was born, which brings together some of the most experienced admissions consulting professionals in Latin America: Ricardo Betti, Maurício Betti, Júlio Caro, Paulo César Oliveira, Neusa Oliveira and Mateo Chang. In addition, MBA Recruitment and Selection services are also offered to companies that wish to fill their positions with highly qualified professionals, thus closing the professional development cycle of our clients: from preparing for the MBA to accessing the job market.

Know the opinion from those who have already hired

  • Doing an MBA in a school that is among the TOP 10 was something that came in a turbulent way into my plans, as I had little time to do everything. MBA Empresarial, with professionals and partners of high level who, besides the competence, work with their heart in their mission, helped me a lot in the organization, prioritization and execution of the preparation to apply. The Business MBA Empresarial efficiently catalyzed from the choosing of the right school for me, up to what I should focus on more on each stage of the preparation. As a result of this work with them, I chose and got into Kellogg, and it turned out to be one of the best decisions I have ever made.

  • The Business MBA has been with me at very important moments in my life. Our relationship began when I participated in the selection process for the Itaú internship program. The professionalism impressed me, although they made the mistake of approving me in the process!: ) Afterwards, MBA Empresarial helped me in another very important stage: the MBA. I was approved in the 4 schools that I applied to on the first round and the advice and support of Ricardo were fundamental. With so much help, I built a relationship of friendship and affection that transpires whenever we meet. Thanks for everything!

  • When the bank where I worked offered me a sponsorship for a master's degree in administration abroad, Ricardo Betti was the one who prepared me. It helped me in studying, being accepted, and choosing the university. He is a brilliant professional, perhaps the most qualified person on this subject that can be found, not only in Brazil!
    Rodolfo Henrique Fischer, MBA MIT ‘90 Financial Markets Executive
  • MBA Empresarial was with me from beginning to end in the long admission process for the MBA and MPA programs. With them there is no magic formula. The work is "tailor-made". I'm very grateful to Ricardo Betti. He was a true coach from start to finish. As a matter of fact, he continues to be my great mentor!
    Arnon de Mello, MBA MIT ’07 e MPA Harvard ‘08 Vice President and Managing Director, NBA Latin America
  • Ricardo helped me a lot when I was applying for my MBA in 1990. His knowledge of the process and the important points to be emphasized, as well as the indication of the best available service providers, was very important to the success of my application. He is undoubtedly the main reference in career coaching geared towards those who want to do a master's degree abroad. I have been recommending his work to friends and the feedback has always been very positive.

  • MBA Empresarial counseling changed my life. We all have many success stories to tell. But which ones do we tell to the school of your dreams? And how do we tell it? This is a journey, above all, of introspection, and having a mentor to guide you makes a huge difference. The sessions at MBA helped me realize a dream that opened doors so that I could accomplish others.
