Harvard Business School 2014年入学Essay & Deadline （哈佛商学院 HBS）

steven

The application deadlines for the MBA Class of 2016 are:

APPLICATION PERIODS:	APPLICATION SUBMITTED ONLINE BY 12 NOON BOSTON TIME:	NOTIFICATION OF THE MBA ADMISSIONS BOARD'S DECISION:
ROUND 1	MON, 16 SEP 2013	WED, 11 DEC 2013
ROUND 2	MON, 06 JAN 2014	WED, 26 MAR 2014
ROUND 3	MON, 07 APR 2014	WED, 14 MAY 2014

Please note that each "round" represents a distinct period in which you may apply, not a succession of steps for your application. You may apply in one round only, one time in an application year.

Given past experience, we anticipate that many candidates will submit their online application materials very close to 12 noon on submission deadline dates. To avoid heavy server traffic and potential delays, we encourage candidates to submit application materials as early as possible.

Applications received after 12 noon on September 16, 2013 will be considered in Round 2. Applications received after 12 noon on January 6, 2014 will be considered in Round 3. Applications received after 12 noon on April 7, 2014 will not be considered.

When Should I Apply?

To avoid overwhelming server traffic generated by the high volume of applications we receive, candidates are encouraged to submit their application as early as possible prior to the deadline of each round.
We encourage applicants to apply in the first or second round, as space in the class may be limited by the third round. In addition, applying in the earlier rounds will give candidates more time to address the following:

• International candidates needing visas will find that applying in Round 3 makes the timing of their visa application stressful.
• International candidates admitted in Rounds 1 and 2 find that it's helpful to have the additional time to work on English proficiency.
• Some candidates may be required to complete preliminary course work prior to their enrollment.
• Many deadlines for outside (non-Harvard Business School) fellowships are in early spring. Only students who have been accepted are eligible for these fellowships.
• Financial aid is available regardless of when students are admitted. However, since admitted students may apply for financial aid only after they are admitted Round 3 admits have less time to prepare their application.
• Harvard Business School residence halls and Harvard University-affiliated apartments are assigned by lottery. Deadlines for both of these housing options precede Round 3 notification, and you must be admitted to HBS before you can enter these lotteries.

There is one question for the Class of 2016:

You’re applying to Harvard Business School.  We can see your resume, school transcripts, extra-curricular activities, awards, post-MBA career goals, test scores and what your recommenders have to say about you.   What else would you like us to know as we consider your candidacy?

There is no word limit for this question.  We think you know what guidance we're going to give here. Don't overthink, overcraft and overwrite. Just answer the question in clear language that those of us who don't know your world can understand.
