Kellogg2008 Q&A

Yes you need to ask your school to mail your transcript to Kellogg by application deadline.  Even if you apply online, I believe you need to tell your school to mail to them (postmarked by the application deadline).

被回答的问题:

A basic question... Do I have to mail my transcript record to Kellogg by application deadline? I know a lot of schools accept self-reported score for initial screening. What else do I need to mail if I apply online? Thanks in advance!

去面试是非常重要的。基本上不面试 = 不被Accepted 

Interesting Fact: 如果你有机会来美国，你其实可以跟Kellogg联系说我想今年申请可是还没做完表，他们会然你先在Kellogg学校跟他们做面试的。之后在写申请表里面说你已经被面试过了，告诉他谁跟你面试了。

被回答的问题:

Kellogg 申请网站上有Part I和Part II两个选择，Part I是需要面试的，Part II是不需要的。我该选哪个呢？选择有面试的会增加成功的机会吗？

kellogg2009

你需要先做Part I 才能开始 Part II。大家都需要跟Kellogg做面试，除非你有特殊原因不能参加面试。

我觉得Kellogg找的人主要有一种很爱跟其他人配合的风格。说实话好像Kellogg里没有几个有很大傲气的同学虽然听说Top5 MBA学校的同学应该有不少。Kellogg学生确实比较友好，大家都尊重互相，配合都很好。Kellogg最喜欢这种人。人的性格对Admissions和我们现在的同学很重要。我们也希望来的人都比较谦虚，比较轻松友好

说实话2.9GPA 进入Kellogg或其他Top 5 有点困难。他们给你一个Optional Essay 让你写任何东西，你应该在这里给他们解释你的GPA 为什么受到损害了 不用说的没完没了，给他们一个很Valid的原因就行了，其实在这里你写的更多他们估计反而更不相信你的原因。(就像你从其他人要一个解释，如果他们说的没完没了，你更不信他们)   在IBM工作挺好的，说实话，不是你在哪家公司工作最重要而是你在你家公司做的多么好。我觉得你深情这边没问题。Believe in yourself!

被回答的问题:

非常仰慕Kellogg，想急切的知道答案，所以我顾不得公司形象了，不拐弯抹角了。

我是IBM Beijing的一名Senior Sales Specialist，EE本科毕业后工作四年，加上从大三开始就在IBM实习应该是5年工作经验了。在公司干的还算不错，目前年薪税前20万吧。很喜欢现在的生活，MBA毕业后求职意向是去公司美国总部继续做Sales or management或者战略咨询。首先想问我适合Kellogg吗？

第二个问题就比较尴尬了，我的GPA只有2.9（后悔一辈子的事情），而且IBM和那几家大的consulting也比不了，我通过essay和GMAT等其他几个方面的努力有希望加入kellogg吗？

谢谢！

请问Kellogg在media & entertainment方向如何？

Kellogg2008

The School of Communication at Northwestern University is one of the oldest communication school in the States, and it has a very strong media major. Kellogg has a Media Management Program (http://www.kellogg.northwestern.edu/academic/media/). However, personally, I know few people in that program.

Thanks. Few Chinese in the program?

Do you think Chinese applicant in media industry will be in a disadvantage considering the culture difference?

Kellogg2008

Few people in general. I don't know any Chinese students in that program. Sorry, I don't know anything about media industry, so cannot comment on your question. As to the application, your industry background shouldn't matter much. It's about your career progression and achievements.

Here is the new link created by the 1st year students. All the Q&A will eventually move there. Thank you.

今天开始填KELLOGG的表格了,绝对的首选,KELLOGG是世界闻名的MARKETING强项的学校，而虽然我的专业是FINANCE,但是还是非常喜欢她的整体感觉.可是我想申的是JD-MBA,这个是3年的,但是KELLOGG和其他学校不一样的是,它不是递2份申请(分别给商学院和LAW SCHOOL)而是一份申请两个学校一起看,那么我在填ONLINE APPLICATION的时候就只能选JD-MBA而不是FULLTIME MBA了.我想问问校友,这样的话,一旦LAW SCHOOL那边觉得不行,我还有可能继续被转如MBA PROGRAM的审查吗?如果没有的话，那岂不是很RISKY?还是乖乖地只申MBA好呢?摸不着头脑,,,求助丫!谢谢!

另外还有个很白痴的问题,我在注册JD-MBA的账号时,竟然PART 1非要我填STATE,里面全是美国的洲,不填不让过下一步,这个...如何是好呢?

请校友或者有经验的战友们帮忙解答我的问题好吗?感谢感谢!

Only the program you apply for will consider your application. So, there won’t be a “second” chance. Every year, JD-MBA admits around 20 people. JD-MBA and 2Y-MBA are two very different programs. Think about what you really want to do after Kellogg before you choose one.

I have no clue about the current application form. Hope someone else here can help you out. Or you can always send an email to adcom to ask.
