Wharton\u2019s Lauder MBA\/MA offers a unique opportunity for globally minded professionals seeking deep international experience to earn a master\u2019s degree in international studies jointly with their business degree.<\/p>\n
Not surprisingly, the dual degree program comes with some additions to the application. The Lauder Institute requires its own interview in addition to Wharton\u2019s, a form where you indicate your Program of Concentration and target language within Lauder, and an oral proficiency interview.<\/p>\n
Lauder also requires a detailed and specific essay of up to 800 words. At a glance, it looks complex and intimidating but I\u2019ve broken it down into simple steps to help you master this requirement.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n

Applicants to Programs of Concentration involving language study (Africa-French; East and Southeast Asia; Europe; Latin America; South Asia, the Middle East, and North Africa) should also discuss what they hope to gain from advanced language and cultural education, as well as describe how they have learned the language they will study (e.g. undergraduate courses, undergraduate major, etc.). Finally, please describe how you see yourself benefiting from, and contributing to, the Lauder community.\u202f(800 words)<\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n First, start by considered the points you will make in your essay.
