Harvard Business School Admissions Director Looks Forward to Summer

Dee Leopold, dean of admissions and financial aid at Harvard Business School (HBS), shared a smattering of admissions updates in a recent post to her Director’s Blog. Class visits will soon conclude, the schedule for information sessions will shift, and the application for the Class of 2016 will go live at the end of May, she wrote.

April 30th marks the final day for class visits at HBS until next fall. “We don’t have any summer classes so there’s nothing to see!” Leopold noted. Beginning May 10th, information sessions will be held for visitors to campus on Mondays and Fridays at 2 p.m. Members of the Admission Board conduct these sessions, leaving plenty of time for questions. You don’t need to register in advance to attend an information session, but don’t expect to meet one-on-one with admissions staff on your visit. “We do not meet individually with candidates,” Leopold wrote. Also effective May 10th, campus tours will depart from Dillon House at 1 p.m. on Mondays and Fridays. No need to sign up for these in advance either, Leopold said. Continue reading…

Admissions Tip: Late Round Considerations

After a relatively sleepy February, March will soon be upon us with its extensive list of application deadlines and decision notification dates.  Let’s take a look at part of the long list of Round 3 (or 4 or 5) deadlines spread over the next two months:

February 25 (today!): IESE R4
February 28: LBS R3

March 4: Tepper R3, Ross R3
March 5: Wharton R3
March 8: Cambridge/Judge R4, Oxford R3
March 12: Haas R3
March 13: INSEAD R3 (Sept. intake)
March 15: Kenan-Flager R3, Marshall R3, NYU R3
March 21: Fuqua R3
March 26: McCombs R4
March 27: Johnson R4
March 28: Darden R3

April 1: McDonough R3
April 2: Tuck R4
April 3: Stanford R3
April 4: Booth R3
April 8: HBS R3, IESE R5
April 10: CBS RD, Kellogg R3
April 17: LBS R4, UCLA R3
April 18: Yale R3
April 23: Tepper R4

While it’s always best to apply as early as possible, the difference between applying in Round 1 and applying in Round 2 is, for most applicants, a marginal one.  However, the later rounds are a very different game.  Because most of the seats in the incoming class will have been given away by the time Round 2 decisions are released, the acceptance rate in the third round is dramatically lower than that for the first two deadlines of the season.
