I had an incredible experience with LilacBuds. They took into account every small detail during my MS application process. Starting from GRE preparation, to choosing which programs to apply to, and taking care of every small detail in the Statement of Purpose, they expertly guided me through every stage of the application process, while also keeping me motivated throughout the way. Thank you for helping me secure admission to my dream university – Carnegie Mellon.
