FROM Tuck Admissions Blog: 2014 Admitted Students Weekend |
Campus is abuzz with final preparations for Admitted Students Weekend (ASW) this upcoming weekend, Friday, 4/11-Sunday, 4/13. Everyone's looking forward to welcoming you all! There's so much in store for this weekend. For folks who are undecided about their business school decision, it's an incredibly valuable weekend to attend. Prospective T'16s will learn so much about Tuck and Tuck's value, and will have the opportunity to meet with current students, other admits, alumni, and faculty. There's also lots of Tuck fun thrown in to give the full picture about what to expect out of Tuck education. For admits who have already decided Tuck is the place for them, they'll also benefit from the information shared (can even get started with things like networking, job talks, clubs, housing, etc.), plus they'll get a preview of what's in store for the fall! As a current partner, I should also emphasize that partners are invited and encouraged to attend ASW as well! Running concurrently with student-specific programming are panels for partners about Life at Tuck (couplehood, parenthood) and in the Upper Valley, finding employment in the area, information for male partners/remote partners/international partners, and of course about off-campus housing (dorms are single-occupancy and for students only). Questions, ideas, thoughts -- please comment! |
FROM Tuck Admissions Blog: Global Learning Expeditions |
One of their most popular MBA enrichment initiatives, the Center for Global Business and Government (CGBG) organizes half-term-elective courses (for credit) called Learning Expeditions (LEs) each academic year. These faculty-led trips offer several benefits, including:
Learning Expeditions in 2013-2014, included trips to Brazil, China, Israel/Turkey, Spain, South Africa, United Arab Emirates, and Vietnam/Singapore. As they adjust to being back on campus, student participants chronicle their Spring Break LE experiences to the United Arab Emirates, South Africa, China, and Vietnam/Singapore on the CGBG blog. United Arab Emirates Learning Expedition 2014 - Theofanis Tigkas, T’15 China Learning Expedition 2014 - Elliot Gillerman, T'15 South Africa Learning Expedition 2014 - Tatiana Gulnik, T'15 Vietnam/Singapore Learning Expedition 2014 - Katherine Gray, T'15 Each fall, CGBG staff invites students to information sessions about the spring break courses. These sessions provide details about destinations, price, itineraries, and application process. The Center for Global Business and Government was formed to ensure that Tuck students, faculty, and alumni remain on the leading edge of two of the most profound trends impacting business today – globalization and the broad, ever-changing role of government in business. Programs at the Center for Global Business and Government at Tuck are focused on learning about the intersection of business and government, which is fundamental to an MBA education and to every business leader’s career. The Center focuses on MBA enrichment through the organization of on-campus and travel programs that address current global business and economic trends, as well as executive engagement by working with senior executives and policy makers, facilitating projects, and developing relevant papers and reports. |

FROM Tuck Admissions Blog: Why should you attend Tuck’s Military Visit Day? |
Dan Bleicher T'15, grew up in Fort Lauderdale, FL and attended the USNA, graduating with a B.S. in Political Science. Upon graduation he flew S-3 Vikings as an NFO and E-6B Mercury’s as a pilot. He also served as the Executive Assistant to the Deputy Commander, Sixth Fleet while living in Naples, Italy. Dan chose Tuck because of its tight-knit community, strong alumni network, and Hanover’s family friendly atmosphere. Dan enjoys skiing, spending time with his family, and trying the Upper Valley’s latest microbrews. He will be interning this summer at McKinsey’s Washington, DC office. When I was applying to business schools, I knew that each one had its own culture, benefits, and yes, some even had drawbacks. Whereas my Tuck classmates were able to seek information from their colleagues at their firms and banks (many of whom were alumni of schools such as Tuck), not a single person in my Navy squadron had attended a full-time MBA program. To help make sense of the dizzying array of information available to me, I sought the candid advice and honest feedback from Veterans at every school that I was interested in possibly attending. These former Vets helped me not only figure out if pursuing an MBA was the appropriate path, but also what steps I needed to take to get there. The road to Hanover was long, but undoubtedly worth it. In hindsight, the advice and guidance that Vets at numerous schools passed along to me were more valuable than any book or forum that I came across during the admissions process. In addition to phone conversations, they offered to review my resume, met with me when I was on campus for my interview, and had their significant others reach out to my wife after I was accepted. Fall A came with many surprises: the pace of coursework and the time required for recruiting were the major ones. Another thing that surprised me was that by the second week of the term I was already talking to prospective T’16s who were serving in Afghanistan or onboard ships. It was time to begin paying it forward. By December the T’15 Vets had talked to dozens of activity duty military members who were contemplating an MBA or applying to Tuck. One of the best pieces of advice that I received and now pass along: start early. Each step in the process requires thoughtful preparation. In addition to reaching out to applicants with military backgrounds, the Armed Forces Alumni Association has posted several common questions that we had when we were applying (they can be found here). Along the “start early” theme, for the first time in school history, the Armed Forces Alumni Association and Tuck Admissions will host a Military Visit Day. Geared towards Veterans who are in the first stages of exploring whether an MBA is right for them, this event will take place on Monday, May 12th. Prospective MBA candidates will be able to get their questions answered about topics ranging from common mistakes Veterans make on their MBA applications to “how do companies that recruit on campus view military backgrounds?” For more information about the Military Visit Day please click here. If you cannot make the Military Visit Day, but are interested in learning more about the value of an MBA or the Tuck experience please feel free to reach out to any of the Tuck Vets! |
Good luck these next two days R3!
