A good time to start a January application is in July. That gives you plenty of time to prepare a great application and prepare also for your interview!

For those of you who would like to know how long it takes to hear the status of your application after you submit to Kellogg, here is an answer. We at MBA Admit.com typically see our clients wait 2-3 weeks before they hear whether they received an interview. This is a relatively fast process compared with schools like Wharton and MIT.

Kellogg Executive MBA: Top Reason Some Applicants Choose Miami over Chicago


Many applicants to Kellogg’s EMBA program choose the Miami campus over the Chicago campus due to its more flexible schedule. Unlike the Chicago program, which meets every other week, the Miami program meets only once a month on a weekend spanning from Thursday evening to Sunday afternoon. The rest of the program is conducted virtually. Some applicants – even those residing far away in locations like California – believe it will be easier to fly a bit farther once a month than travel to a closer location twice a month. With that calculation in mind, they sometimes choose Miami over Chicago. As you decide between the campuses, consider which travel logistics best fit your needs.

Executive MBA: Second-Top Reason Some Applicants Choose Miami over Chicago

Many applicants to Kellogg’s EMBA program choose the Miami campus over the Chicago campus due to its proximity to the Latin American market. This proximity attracts applicants who are either from Latin America or doing business there. The networking opportunities and specialized knowledge this brings are valuable.

But, for applicants who are not focused on Latin America, you can feel confident that the Miami program provides a well-rounded education that will enhance the knowledge and skills of leaders from a wide variety of backgrounds and geographical foci. The program is designed to serve leaders from across the United States and the world who seek a well-rounded EMBA education applicable to a wide variety of industries and regions.

Kellogg Executive MBA: Does no financial sponsorship hurt candidacy?

Kellogg has indicated that only 25% of its applicants have full sponsorship from their employers. The other 75% of applicants are either self-funded or partially funded.

While it is a great endorsement of your candidacy when your employer states in its sponsor letter to Kellogg that it will fully fund your Executive MBA education, most candidates do not have such funding. Usually, their employer does not offer this type of funding. So, don’t worry about the lack of financial sponsorship hurting your application. Plenty of candidates gain admission without corporate financial sponsorship.

Executive MBA: Kellogg’s Corporate Sponsorship Requirements

Kellogg offers a very rigorous and thorough Executive MBA program. Given the time demands of preparing for and attending class, as a part of its admissions process, Kellogg requires that applicants secure a letter from their employer stating that the company will offer time sponsorship for the applicant for the duration of the program. By offering time sponsorship, your employer acknowledges that you are applying to Kellogg and indicates its approval of the time you will need to devote to the program. Your employer is affirming that they will give you the time off you need to attend the program. The corporate sponsor letter much be prepared and signed on company letterhead by a company representative with the authority to approve the time off you will need.

There is another type of corporate sponsorship: financial sponsorship. This is when your employer will pay for your EMBA education, fully or in part. If your employer is providing financial sponsorship, the company should indicate this in the corporate sponsor letter they prepare for you. However, remember that financial sponsorship is not required, so it is okay if your employer will not provide financial sponsorship.
