Applicants are urged to attend a small group information session, typically conducted by an Admissions Committee member, to learn about Anderson's MBA Program, student life, and the admissions process. Classroom visits also are available Monday through Thursday, mid-October through May, when classes are in session. Appointments are necessary for information sessions and classroom visits. Personal interviews are not required but are strongly recommended. Many applicants find them a good way of personalizing their individual case beyond what is articulated in their application.
Students can interview with staff on campus or at off campus locations.
For on-campus interviews it is not necessary to submit an application prior to the interview. Alumni interviews are also available only for candidates applying in rounds one and two. For alumni interviews, applicants must submit their application prior to the interview. Interviews are held, subject to staff availability, from August through March. During the first year, a limited amount of fellowship support is available for exceptional applicants to the MBA Program.
