Chicago Booth Weekend & Evening MBA 2023-24 Essay Tips

Chicago Booth Weekend / Evening MBA Essay One:

Why are you seeking an MBA from Chicago Booth, and why is Chicago Booth's Evening/Weekend MBA your program of choice? (400 word max)

Write in detail about your career aspirations. Now, why do you think that the Booth part time MBA program can take you there? Show admission committee the power of your in-depth research on the program. Network with a current student, alumni, and the admission team. Go to their LinkedIn and Facebook pages and talk to students and alumni. Attend any web seminars or admission events in your city and try to visit their campus in order to know as much as possible about the program. Show them how the program fits in your career plan and how its going to hone you as a business leader. Don’t just browse their website and talk about “location advantage” and “reputation” of the school. That certainly would not help!
