Examples of popular industry career paths are Consulting, Financial Services, Consumer Products, Healthcare, Human and Organizational Performance, Technology, and beyond. It is noteworthy that many students opt to concurrently explore multiple industry career paths.(200 words maximum). As you contemplate your post-MBA aspirations, share two post-MBA career paths you aim to explore during the Vanderbilt MBA program. Please articulate your rationale and enthusiasm for these choices, and include the skills you have developed that will help you achieve your career goals. Statement 2 We are genuinely interested in getting to know you and recognize that your identity extends beyond the confines of this application's structured questions. Please highlight something about yourself that isn't already captured in the application. This highlight statement is an opportunity for you to provide context and depth to something that is important or meaningful to you.(200 words) Statement 3 You may provide an additional statement to briefly explain anything that is not already addressed elsewhere in your application. This could include employment gaps, lack of recommendation from your current or most recent supervisor, violations of the law, academic misconduct, sub-par academic performance, or anything else that is relevant to your application. Bullet points are acceptable for this statement when appropriate. Video Response The video response is a chance for you to provide a glimpse of your authentic self, speaking without a script. The video questions are designed to be easy to answer, “small talk” questions to help us to get to know you. You will have time to prepare your response and the application will provide you with step-by-step instructions on how to record your answers.

Congrats windie! Did Kim mention the full scholarship on your call?

windie123

She’s very nice when you ask the right questions and have done your research. Had a pleasant interaction with her so definitely not a source of concern.
