Who am I?
I’m Shaifali, Founder of Ivy Groupe, a boutique MBA admissions company. I help candidates shape an authentic story for elite MBA programs – one that reflects how they think, decide, and lead, not just what they’ve done. I’ve been recognized by Business Insider as a top MBA admissions consultant.
My perspective is shaped by my own experience at Harvard Business School and years of working closely with MBA admissions candidates.

✦ Storytelling That Signals: Insight into what makes an MBA story feel authentic, coherent, and credible.
✦ Judgment Before Strategy: Clarity on timing, readiness, and the decisions that shape strong applications.
