Application tips for MBA candidates interested in social impact
I’ll give the same advice I give to everyone. You need to demonstrate in your application that you have reasonable, achievable goals, and that what you want to do in the future is tied to what you have been doing in your professional life so far.
So, if social impact is the direction you're interested in going in, what can you start doing now? What have you been doing within your own firm, organization or community? It’s crucial to make this clear in your application, so we can see that you have a genuine passion in your chosen field.
Also, it’s ok to have tried lots of things out in your career leading up to your MBA, but what’s important is you can identify the patterns of interest through your work. That way, we’ll know what really drives you, and we can help you get there.
