Application Architect
Definition: An Application Architect is an expert in helping you design, plan, and construct your perfect application.
Led by Dr. Darlene Diep, Application Architect prides itself in being a boutique consulting service for BS/MD and medical school applicants. As planning and applying for medical school can be stressful, we are passionate about guiding students through every step of the application process from brainstorming essays to the interview process.
Our comprehensive approach is designed to highlight our students’ strengths and unique experiences. Rather than simply editing essays or asking general interview questions, we are first and foremost focused on the quality of the content. These strategies have helped numerous students find success in their top programs, including Ivy League, Top 20 colleges, and BS/MD and medical school programs.
Pursuing a career in medicine is difficult— creating an application that best represents who you are doesn’t have to be. Hear from students who have previous worked with Dr. Darlene.
Our approach
Application Architect is primarily focused on the quality of the services that we provide. Our strategies for building a school list, crafting stand-out essays, and perfecting interview techniques have helped students earn acceptances time and time again. As a small independent consulting business, our model is purposely intimate to allow us to personally get to know our students. This allows us to properly frame their essays and interview answers.
Unlike bigger consulting firms, our philosophy prioritizes “fit” between the consultant and the student. We strive to help students who have a deep passion for medicine and are proactive in their pursuit of becoming a physician. Therefore, each year we only work with a select few students so that we can ensure our families receive the utmost care and attention.
“Darlene really took the time to understand who I was as a person. She used this to guide me through essays that eventually got me 10 interviews and multiple acceptances into medical school.”
— Richard, Albany Medical College MD student
