FROM Stacy Blackman Consulting Blog: Yale SOM Announces Fall 2017 Essay Topic
Bruce DelMonico, assistant dean for admissions at Yale School of Management, has previewed the new essay question that will be a part of the fall 2017 MBA application. The Yale SOM admissions committee would like you to:

Describe the biggest commitment you have ever made. (500 words maximum)

This seemingly simple and straightforward prompt, DelMonico says, was developed in collaboration with Yale SOM professor of organizational behavior Amy Wrzesniewski.

The SOM will continue using a slide-scale application fee, which ties your application fee to your total annual compensation, for the upcoming year, DelMonico adds.

“The sliding-scale fee helps us attract diverse applicants from all over the world, including those from countries where pay scales are different from the United States and from industries where compensation varies,” he writes.

The 2016-2017 application goes live in mid-July. For more information, please visit the Yale SOM admissions website.

I should also add that Yale SOM posted many of its admission events on its website. Suggest checking it out so you can get a chance to interact with the admissions team to get a feel for what they may be looking for.

Good luck everyone!

Wow @Anudodh2017, are you still researching or are you actually intending to apply to 17 (did I count right?) schools?!
Obviously, you should certainly apply to SOM, but to finish all of those time management will be key ... and enough $$ to cover all those application fees :)
Good luck, my friend.

vinaysk92, you ask and you shall receive.

The application will be released in mid-July, but here is the one (and only) essay question for Yale SOM. Get writing.

"Describe the biggest commitment you have ever made.”
(500 words maximum)

Hi Everyone,

Was just wondering - Does Yale SOM need us to report both GMAT scores if we've taken it twice? Or should we just report our latest / highest score?

Thank you,
Dhruv
