Application Tips Shared by Kelley 1st Year


mihir0710 wrote:
Few things which I did during my application process (and I feel can be helpful to others) are
1. Pair up with someone who is also applying this year - You can talk to him about various things in the application, you can push each other to meet the deadlines, you can talk each other out of frustration, and can often share ideas. I paired with abhimahna and we became buddies by the end of the application process.
2. Be authentic!!! I know it's cliche. But I can definitely say that a couple of my stories worked because they were mine and it had elements in it that represented my personality (and not someone else's).
3. Talk to people at Kelley (or any other schools you are applying) and you would know a great deal which you can't find online. Again cliche but I must have spoken to at least 3-5 people from each school that I applied. That's what helps you differentiate your "Why Kelley" answer from the rest of the herd.

Can I send my recommendation after the R1 deadline is over? If yes, how long after?

It's safe to send the LOR by the deadline. Do it asap. If there's a delay don't extend it beyond a day

Thank you for the response. The thing is I didn't know Kelley takes 2 days to send submission link to the recommender. I added my supervisor's email around 5 hours ago and he hasn't received anything as yet.

Once you have uploaded your supporting documents and your application is complete, submit your application using the final tab in the eApp. You will be prompted to pay the $75 application fee by credit card. Remember, you must take the GMAT or GRE (and TOEFL or IELTS for international applicants) before submitting your application. Your recommendation should also be submitted by the deadline.

I remember schools accept LOR for a day but sorry for the incorrect response. Have your recommender fill the LOR asap as it is mentioned on the website. Write a mail to the admissions team in case there is a delay

I mailed the university asking about submitting the recommendation after the deadline and they said that it is fine.

Looking at the data from Decision tracker last year,

About 85 applicants in the Early round
40 were Invited to Interview
25 Admitted

so 50% interview and 60% conversion

Hope this gets better this year

Hey,

Thank you for those very kind words. I wish you the same.

Looking at the thread of last year, Kelley invited students on 21st Oct 2017 for interviews and I was just wondering if that's the case this year and I was just checking it out :D

I aspire to get into consulting through Kelley, if not Marketing. I wouldn't mind any of the either. How about you?

HK

I target my supply chain capabilities blended with more business depth.

While you will enjoy and learning marketing in Kelley (as I attended a class with Prof. Rockney Walters while visiting the school), you will find hard to penetrate for internationals or rare to be employed as it is related to domestic culture. The consulting field is famous in Kelley in 2nd tier like Deloitte, Accenture, PWC....etc. Very handful make it to MBB.

That's very interesting to know. I had my own frozen food distribution company { a stint as a startup and supply chain reminds me of that }

I plan to not get into pure-play firms such as MBB simply because I feel that there may be more opportunities at other companies offering consulting one of their service as they are involved with other activities as well. (might not be true) I want to work at Deloitte, PwC, Accenture or CapGemini/ Oc&C where there is more focus on strategy consulting.

This is what you call it 'clear strategy', in that you need what you want. I will PM you with good stuff to prepare for consulting from now if you like.

Do not neglect maybe good opportunities in Distribution and Retail sector. The midwest is famous of it too. I have an alumnus of last intake who works now for Cummins In Memphis.
