Tips for Completing the Application Process
Read the following tips under each application element below. The best MBA applicants pay careful attention to detail. Be sure to do simple things such as spell-checking your work, filling out forms completely, and answering correctly. While some of these may sound like "no-brainers," it is easy to forget the little things in the rush of completing materials.
If you are applying online (the preferred method), take time to review your work. Once an application has been submitted, the only change allowed would be to update your professional resume. If you are applying with a hard copy, be sure you type your application carefully or print your answers clearly. Illegible applications receive little consideration.
