MBA candidates gathered in Philadelphia this week to connect directly with admissions teams from 25+ leading business schools and gain practical advice for navigating the MBA application process.
Attendees heard admissions insights from Boston College Carroll School of Management Graduate Programs, Johns Hopkins University Carey Business School, and the Ross School of Business during a panel on what admissions committees are looking for, common application mistakes, essays, test scores, and choosing the right program.
Throughout the evening, candidates participated in MeetUps with admissions representatives, attended school presentations from Johns Hopkins Carey Business School, University of Pittsburgh School of Business, and Bentley University - McCallum Graduate School of Business, and joined GMAC's session on building a strong MBA application in a holistic admissions environment.
The event concluded with a networking fair, professional headshots, and opportunities for candidates to continue conversations with schools from across the U.S. and around the world.
Thank you to all of the schools and attendees who joined us at The MBA Tour Philadelphia. We look forward to seeing where your MBA journey takes you next.
