With just about two weeks until Simon Business School’s application for Fall 2023 entry launches, I wanted to reach out with a few tips on several aspects of your application that you can be working on right now. Get ready to apply when our application goes live on August 15 by crossing a few items off your to-do list ahead of time!
Résumé
We require a business formatted résumé (not a CV) and recommend it be no longer than two pages.
Focus on quantifying your accomplishments and be sure to keep the formatting clean and easy to read.
Essays
Using our essay prompts, brainstorm a few bullet points for each answer to make it easier for when you sit down to write.
While writing your essays, stick to the word limit and be sure to fully answer the question being asked.
In addition to two required essays, we have an optional essay that you can use to share information with the Admissions Committee that you believe is important in the evaluation of your candidacy, including context around employment gaps or a difficult academic period.
References
Reach out to two people who can affirm your professional strengths to ask them if they would be comfortable providing a reference for you to speak on your post-business school goals and motivation. We do not accept recommendation letters, however the Admissions Committee may contact your references during the application review process for additional perspective.
We recommend choosing professional references if at all possible—this can include an internship supervisor if you have limited work experience.

Yes, originally. But I wasn’t able to find a good travel date so they are accommodating a virtual interview.

Wow. In persona interviews are back! This is interesting. Good. I thought we were to be stuck in Skype or Zoom forever…
