Hello Mendoza Aspirants,

Here are the details on essays and upcoming deadlines.

Statement of Purpose (100 words or less)
Please share your short term professional goals. What role does a Notre Dame MBA play in helping you achieve these goals?

One essay (maximum of two pages)- Choose ONE of the essay topics below

Essay Option #1
Cardinal O’Hara established the Mendoza College of Business at Notre Dame in 1921, firmly committed to the idea that “the primary function of commerce is service to mankind”. As the world economy continues to grow and change, how do you see business acting as a positive force in the world?

Essay Option #2
The University of Notre Dame was founded in 1842, by Father Edward Sorin, C.S.C, with a mission to become “one of the most powerful means for doing good in this country”. In 1879, Father Sorin’s vision for Notre Dame appeared to be at a sudden, abrupt end. A massive fire destroyed the building that housed virtually the entire University. Instead of giving up, Father Sorin interpreted the fire as a sign that he had dreamed too small, and decided to rebuild, bigger and better than ever. That Main Building still stands today, topped by the gleaming Golden Dome, not only as an iconic campus building, but as an ongoing symbol of perseverance and vision.

Tell us the story of a time in your own life or career when you had to overcome an obstacle, start over, or rebuild.


Deadlines:

Early Decision: 15 Sep 2020
Round 1: 13 Oct 2020
Round 2: 12 Jan 2021
Round 3: 23 Feb 2021

Good luck everyone!

Congratulations!!

I am yet to hear back from them. I guess I am not getting an admit.

Any idea up to what time are the decisions rolled out?

As per the website, I think December 4 is the date for R1 decision. Don't worry you still have more than half day's time, All the best !

Thank you for the kind words. I am also pretty optimistic but only a few hours are left in the official timings of the day.

Keeping fingers crossed.

Hello Everyone!

I am planning to apply to Mendoza in R2.

I would like to know whether Mendoza's STEM accreditation pertains only to students who take up the MBA/MSBA Dual Degree or can even the Two-Year MBAs leverage it?

I would be really grateful if someone can clarify this!

Thank you!

From 2021, some of their MBA concerntrations will be STEM designated
