As Kellogg first year Chinese students, we would like to help you understand more about our program, our culture, and our people. We would also try to answer any questions you may have about the application.
How many grads will go back to China or Asia? How many students are from Mainland China? What's the largest distinction Kellogg is holding from other top B-Schools? I found at Tuck, Chinese students rarely got involved in the class discussions or often got intercepted by fast-mouth American students. How about Chinese at Kellogg?
Every year, there are a couple of Chinese students going back to work in mainland or HongKong. The number of entering students holding PRC passport ranges from 10 to 30 from year to year, there are also many Chinese Americans in the class.
Most Chinese students here are very active in class discussions as well as extracurricular activities. We participate and lead in various Kellogg clubs. There is a good balance of study and party here.
One thing that sets Kellogg apart from the peer schools is our focus on developing students' soft skills. I am not saying technical training is not important, but it's clear that more and more enterprises are looking for people who can work in a team, who can communicate well.It's not surprised to know that almost all Kellogg students who wanted to do investment banking got an offer. This is not all because of the supply-demand here, most importantly, bankers love people who can communicate well,that's the key of their business.
Other than the strong marketing program, Kellog is especially good at general management and finance. Almost 10% of class 2004 went to McKinsey.
I strongly encourage all of you to apply for Kellogg, the best place for your MBA education. We are all here to support you
Thanks for your insightful info. I've submitted my application in the first round and am waiting for feedback. I wish to pursue a Wall Street career as an analyst or fund manager. How about Kellogg's strength in finance area? I found Business Week likes Kellogg so much and keeps rating it on the top. I paid a direct visit to Kellogg in April and talked with a second-year Hong Kong girl. She told me that about half of Chinese will go back to the greater China area and half work in North America. I found UChicago has the same ratio for international students. Have you guys faced practical training card application problem or something?
To Pumpkin: It really depends. Quality is definitely more important than quantity. This year, working experience of Chinese students rangesfrom 4 to 8 years. Averge is probably 5 to 6.
To vagabond: When I first came to Kellogg, people told me the biggest secret of Kellogg is its finance program. It's probably the best top B-school to find a I-banking job. All major banks come to recruit at Kellogg every year. As I said, almost all who want to do I-banking can get an offer. There is a banking trip to Wall Street during the winter break, many students who want to do I-banking will go to meet the WallSt. bankers.
The visa sponsorships are all routine works, people do it every year,so there really isn't anything new or special. Although it's always tough for international students to find jobs in US, you have a better chance by attending a more recognized school.

I've worked for 11 years, do you have any Chinese classmates have longer working experience than mine? Is my long working experience against me?
