Tips for applying for a Kellogg MBA:

  • Kellogg is looking for someone who ideates clear self reflection, speaks with conviction about goals, who they are, why they are interested in MBA, their role and fit with school. Not looking for one-dimensional people.

  • Be yourself, be confident, without arrogance.

  • Highly advisable for international students to apply in rounds 1 or 2.

  • Find a way to convince them that Kellogg is your first choice. They are afraid of being treated as a "safety school" by competitive Harvard/Stanford/Wharton applicants. It would help if they know that if you are accepted, you are coming.

  • Look closely at work experience- want to see 'quality' of work, contribution to workplace, promotions.

  • School emphasizes that essays should be insightful, reflective, authentic and honest - don't write simply what think adcom wants to hear.

  • Think what your experience means for other students, what you can share and how you can contribute.

  • Don't underestimate military experience - viewed as professional. Adcom has great respect for service to country.
