Each response should be no more than 40 words. What are your short-term post-MBA career goals? How will your professional experience and the Goizueta MBA help you to achieve those goals? What’s a fun fact about you that you would like the committee to know? Essay Question 1 Goizueta Business School’s mission is to prepare principled leaders to have a positive influence on business and society. Identify a personal account of a time you effectively demonstrated your leadership skills. Respond to one of these two prompts: What about this experience made you feel proud of your leadership abilities? What did this experience teach you about leadership? (300-word limit) Essay Question 2 Our lived experiences shape who we are and the aspirations we have. As a values-driven community, we care about what has shaped your life. Please share what or who has had the biggest impact on your life. (300-word limit) Video Essay Telling your story through written essays is an important part of the application, but the video essay lets us hear your words in your own voice. In the required video essay, every candidate will answer a “small talk” question to help the MBA Admissions Committee get to know you. The video essay instructions and link are located in your application portal. Optional Essay Still have more to share? This optional essay is your opportunity to share something you couldn’t find a place for on your application. This is also where you should address anything the committee may question (e.g., gaps in employment, academic challenges, choice of recommender). You can use essay format or bullets. Please identify topics if more than one is addressed. (500 word limit) Goizueta Class Profile Class of '26 Avg. GPA 3.5 Avg.

I was just nervously checking every day ahaha. Definitely don't count yourself out though as they mentioned invites will be on a rolling basis.

Even I have an under review from like 3-4 days No invites yet

i have had under review since like Jan 20th now

i am lil confused here, if application is under review thats a ding? Is that what you are saying?

So for other colleges, as soon as your profile goes under review, you either get an invite or not. Seeing that o I havent gotten one, i assume I’ve been dinged So frustrated man I hope i am wrong tbh

But that's very generic thing right Similar to "if you submit your application, you will either get an invite or not"

I genuinely wrote a very strong application for Emory. Only downside could be my video essay, that too not very sure :/. ...aaah super frustrated True. Idk man, seems like i am overthinking it atm
