MBA recommendation letters are one of the most misunderstood parts of the application process. Many applicants focus on choosing the most senior recommender — when what actually matters is specificity, credibility, and examples of impact.

Hi, the acceptance rates for some of these top programs (Ross) seem to have extremely high acceptance rates according to poets and quants. Is this actually the case? If so how come not everybody does this to get into a top program?

I think I know the statistic that you are referring to. That was pretty early on and then piloting the Ross OMBA so I'm not so sure if that still holds. It's possible that they were more permissive so that they would have a larger graduating class that would be kind of like a proof of concept. And I think what you're saying is why doesn't everyone apply to this program as a way of getting a top MBA brand on their resume and I would say it's because they actually want the experience of being in person for two years - taking a work break, being able to solidify that network in person through clubs and socializing, on campus recruiting is more accessible, and for many especially international students they want to have a visa to have the permission to live in the US for two years. The OMBA for Ross is very unique among competitor OMBA programs because it does offer on campus recruiting but of course that means you need to make the trek to Ann Arbor. They have lots of interesting on campus events that you can take part in, and even study abroad. So i think it's a really really solid offering and there's a reason it's more expensive than other OMBAs. It would be especially good if you want to make a pivot and take advantage of OCR.

What rates are we talking about? I saw Kellogg FT MBA (most competitive MBA type) had 35% acceptance rate. Both the same. That seems really high for a program to be ranked number one even if those rankings are questionable…
Some of these programs are humongous in size. Kelly for example has over 1000 student in their online MBA program across all of the years… that is huge!
Since these programs are not so concerned with employing their graduates,
