Welcome to another installment of Twitter Thursdays, a weekly column in which we highlight the updates of the top MBA programs on Twitter! If you’re not following Clear Admit already, be sure to check us out on Twitter for updates, special prizes, admissions tips and breaking news. We’ve also created a list of MBA programs to ease your daily access to breaking news from the top MBA programs, as reported by admissions committee members themselves.
Though applicants are eager for news, The Assistant Dean of UCLA Anderson MBA Admissions & Financial Aid, Mae Jennifer Shores, noted that she can only promise Round 2 decisions will be released by March 31st. Students and faculty at Berkeley / Haas ensured that Rich Lyons, the Dean of the Haas School of Business, had a full week; he received student support for a place in the dunk-tank and the faculty’s approval for the school’s new strategic plan. Across the pond, MBA Admissions Coordinator at Judge Business School, James Barker, hosted several Round 3 candidates for Cambridge’s interview days. Associate Dean for Student Recruitment and Admissions at Chicago Booth, Rose Martinelli, has yet to determine how the PowerPoint presentation will play a part in next year’s application – if it does at all.
After hosting admitted students this past weekend, Chicago Booth reached the Round 3 deadline. Student teams at The Tuck School topped a few MBA competitions in modern business. The Wharton School plugged professors’ publications and research to spread the word on Google, healthcare in India and the state of the U.S. economy. The Kellogg School of Management shared its faculty’s research on executive compensation and hedge fund regulation.
