Make Every Word Count.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Change has once again come to the Harvard Business School MBA application. For the upcoming 2015-26 application cycle, there is now one required<\/strong> essay. \u00a0For the last two years, it has been optional. Also the prompt has changed.<\/span><\/p>\n

As it did last year, Harvard does not suggest a word limit. It leaves it to your judgment. The operative word is judgement. Harvard has in the past\u00a0requested a significant amount of information in the boxes on its application and last year (this year's app isn't live yet.) there were significant word and character limits.<\/span><\/p>\n

Also, HBS has virtually the same deadlines this year as last. Its round 1 deadline is so far the earliest at September 9, 2015.<\/span><\/p>\n

There is one question for the Harvard MBA Class of 2018<\/a>. Here it is:<\/p>\n

It's the first day of class at HBS. You are in Aldrich Hall meeting your \"section.\" This is the group of 90 classmates who will become your close companions in the first-year MBA classroom. Our signature case method participant-based learning model ensures that you will get to know each other very well. The bonds you collectively create throughout this shared experience will be lasting.<\/p>\n

Introduce yourself.<\/p>\n

Note: Should you enroll at HBS, there will be an opportunity for you to share this with them.<\/p>\n
