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.

  • MBA Empresarial helped me a lot in the application process for my MBA. The role of counseling was fundamental so that I could know how to best expose my strengths and discover my differentials in things I would not have seen by myself. The role of the MBA was fundamental in my admission and they have always been there for me even after we have finished this process. I felt in them the perfect balance between professionalism and at the same time the proximity necessary to assist me in this.

  • The whole process of choosing an MBA and applying to a top school made it very clear to me the importance of having people who understand the subject, who pass on tranquility, guide, question, and participate in body and soul. The MBA team with Ricardo's baton was fantastic at this important stage of my life. The involvement is so relevant that we sweat together in preparation and celebrated together in the results. Thanks a lot, or in Wharton style, where I did my MBA, fantastic ROI !!!!
    Bruno Gobbi Schmidt, MBA Wharton ‘99 Board Advisor & Business Development
  • 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
  • I am a graduate of Stern-NYU's 2003 class. I met Ricardo Betti and MBA Empresarial when preparing my applications for universities and MBA courses. Ricardo - with his tireless patience and valuable opinions - was of fundamental importance to my application process and in my choice regarding which MBA to attend. Today I am a Director of a multinational company, a market leader and reference in our segment. Much of the success of my career and the professional that I am today is due to my MBA - and consequently to the work done with Betti. I'm certain that he and his company are some of the best - if not the best! - choices in this arduous process. Good luck!

  • My Masters abroad experience was fantastic. I believe that I have had a very significant evolution both in the academic and in the personal sense. The challenges I faced in the two years in Chicago have strengthened me, but have also shown me the importance of respecting different cultures and ideas. However, none of this would have been possible without the work of Ricardo Betti. I was very raw when I received the invitation from Itaú to do the MBA abroad. I would not have been accepted by American and European universities, had it not been for Ricardo with his careful training and his precise directions of step-by-step recruitment processes.

  • Getting into a good school is great. Entering the school of your dreams is wonderful. But it takes work, it takes time, it consumes energy. You compete with a lot of good people and you need to stand out. It's not easy. But with the Business MBA, you optimize your preparation and you gain time and energy to focus on that which will really make a difference, your story. It's worth it because you get a head start and you arrive ahead. Counting on MBA Empresarial is a super differentiator.
