Notes:

I am a first gen high school graduate with a low-income background from a rural town in the South. I am a CPA working at a Big Four, on the board of 2 nonprofits in my community, and do pro bono consulting. I share all of that to say, it WILL require work, but it is absolutely possible to overcome a low GPA, background, etc.. Chase your dreams!!!!

8 apps was too many — start with 5 max. Take your time on the GMAT. Find 2-3 things you love per school and know them well. Film yourself practicing interviews. ClearAdmit podcasts and mbaMission guides were invaluable. Be genuine, reflect deeply, and quality over quantity.

Notes:

I am a Gender Specialist with the World Bank (been here 5.5 years but it’s a year-on-year contract). I’m looking to stay in social development but pivot job functions to private sector-led development. Would love to work again at the World Bank in development finance roles, or other development institutions.

As an international the NU loan option and the location Kellogg offered were alternatives that ultimately pushed me towards Kellogg as opposed to Tuck. Also have my wife joining, where a commitment to Evanston made more sense as opposed to Hanover

Notes:

I feel very fortunate that I did not have to make a difficult decision. Columbia has always been my dream school, and the scholarship is the cherry on top. Given my career goals in finance (IB/IM), I can’t think of a better fit than CBS.

I would advise applicants to apply in EA/Round 1 and to articulate career goals that builds on their work ex.

Notes:

My decision mainly came down to choosing between Wharton and Kellogg’s MBAi program. Given my technical background, I felt Wharton’s curriculum offered greater flexibility and the opportunity to learn from a more diverse group of classmates. I also had a very positive experience during Wharton’s admit weekend, which helped solidify my decision.
