Prospective B-school Student Events

Schools have multiple touch points for prospective students. You can still do campus tours and class visits at most schools through May. Once school is out for the summer the action shifts to the MBA fair circuit. These usually start in the mid summer and go through the early fall. Starting in late September/early October schools open their doors for campus tours and class visits again. They also have special events (usually two days) for diverse candidates (i.e. URM, women, LGBT, military, etc.). Also many student clubs have conferences that are open to prospective students. You can choose to use as many of these avenues as you choose to get to know a school better. You have to do them all, so don't kill yourself trying to make every tour event, special weekend, and conference.
