From Applicants to Scholars
Hear from candidates who worked with us and won.
Working with the Hibernian team transformed my application. They helped me find the narrative thread I didn't know I had. I went from an unfocused draft to a story that felt genuinely mine.
The mock interviews were invaluable. They anticipated exactly the kinds of questions my committee asked and coached me to answer with confidence and authenticity.
I applied for three fellowships simultaneously and their ability to maintain narrative consistency across all three applications while tailoring each one was remarkable.
I was applying to seven PhD programs and felt completely overwhelmed. They helped me identify the right advisors, tailor each statement of purpose, and present a coherent research vision. I got into my top choice with full funding.
