First of all, just give an "official" introduction with all the programs:
http://www.kellogg.northwestern.edu/Programs/FullTimeMBA/MBA_Programs.aspx

MBA Programs
The Kellogg School of Management has a Full-Time MBA option tailored to your needs, interests and business experience. Whichever program you choose, you are assured of an unparalleled education led by our award-winning faculty, and you will be immersed in the distinctive Kellogg culture of innovation and collaboration.
Students in these programs are 28 years of age on average and have a diverse range of full-time work experience and backgrounds. Like our 2Y students, applicants to the accelerated or dual-degree full-time programs (1Y, MMM, JD-MBA) are expected to have exceptional quantitative skills.
A one-credit global course requirement provides a formal framework, through approved courses or exchange programs, for integrating global management and leadership issues.
Two-Year (2Y) MBA

• Schedule: Begins in September, students complete an internship the following summer then graduate the next June, in a total of six academic quarters of classes.
  
• Credits: Minimum 24.5 course units and six quarters of registration are required for graduation. Students typically take four courses in each of the six quarters they are enrolled.
  
• Distinctive Factor: Offers the greatest flexibility to explore new areas of interest and develop solid management and leadership skills.
  

One-Year (1Y) MBA

• Schedule: Starts in June and finishes in June of the following year. After the summer quarter, 1Y students are integrated into the second-year class of 2Y students.
  
• Credits: Minimum 15.5 course units and four quarters of registration are required for graduation.
  
• Distinctive Factor: Accelerated program enables students with clear career goals, linked with their professional experience, to return to the workforce quickly. Applicants are required to have completed requisite coursework through either undergraduate or graduate studies, so that 1Y students may complete one quarter of required courses and three quarters of electives for the MBA.
  

The MMM Program

• Schedule: Same schedule as the 2Y Program, with some overlap of courses and group interactions.
  
• Credits: Minimum 24.5 credits and six quarters of registration are required for graduation. Courses come from required MBA courses (7.5 credits), core MEM requirements (3.5 credits), Integration Project (or equivalent: 1 credit), MEM major requirements (4 credits for each major), and 8.5 credits of unrestricted electives.
  
• Distinctive Factor: Integrates management, operations and design elements in a dual-degree program taught by Kellogg and Northwestern University’s engineering school, McCormick. MMM students earn the master of business administration (MBA) and the master of engineering management (MEM).
  

JD-MBA (3 year program)

• Schedule: Begins with a full year of study at Northwestern University’s School of Law, including the summer, followed by three academic quarters at Kellogg then a summer internship in law and/or business, and the final year of coursework at the School of Law.
  
• Credits: Both degrees are awarded upon successful completion of 16 managerial course units and 72 hours of law course work.
  
• Distinctive Factor: Students earn the juris doctor (JD) and the master of business administration (MBA). Students apply only to Kellogg; both schools review the application. The GMAT is required but not the LSAT.

For MBA / MMM: Class of 2012, graduates in June 2012, have its application season from Aug 2009 - May 2010, and application season for Class of 2013 would be starting from August 2010 to May 2011.

For JDMBA: Class of 2013, graduates in June 2013, have its application season from Aug 2009 - May 2010, and application season for Class of 2014 would be starting from August 2010 to May 2011.

So, if you would like to apply for a course starts in 2013, you should be a Class of 2015 applicant.
