Hi James,
I am interested in Tepper MBA program ( i have a strong interest in Pittsburgh !! ) and will apply in Round 3. Could you help advise me ?
1. Will there be fewer opportunities for an international candidate to be admitted in Round 3 ? How about the opportunities for scholarships ?
2. As for the Essay B and Essay C, is it ok if i use stories in my professional life for both 2 essays ?
Thank you in advance and i look forward to your response.
Thank you for the post! Glad to hear that you are interested in Pittsburgh as well. It's a great city - amazingly, it's nearly 50 degrees today. Happy to help with your questions as best I can.
1) Not usually. Each year is of course a bit different, but in my experiences as strong application and good fit is an admit, whether submitted in round 1 or 3. I tend to advise that it's much better to wait until your application is at its strongest rather than rushing to meet an earlier deadline.
2) That would be just fine. Essay D will ask for an example that is outside of work or your studies.
Hope this is helpful. Good luck on the application!
Best,
James
