MBA申请时需要注意避免的10大错误 (A)

JHUGMBA

Here are the top 10 mistakes to avoid when applying:

10. Not properly researching your options.  

You’remaking a huge investment that will greatly impact your future. Do yourself a favor and do your homework. Talk to admissions reps, visit campuses,talk to current students and get a feel for the culture, and get to know thefaculty. There’s a lot more to a school than just its website.

MBA 的学费昂贵， 所以一定要做足功课， 包括仔细阅读官方网站， 访问学校， 与现任学生去的联系。

9. Missing thefinancial aid application deadlines.  

While many universities allow applicants to apply for scholarships up until the general application closing date, students are more likely to receive higherreward amounts if they apply by the priority deadline.

如果要申请经济补助，一定要赶早申请。 因为这样能得到补助或者贷款的机会回大一些。

8. Waiting until the last minute to request transcripts.  

Most of the time, other institutions are pretty good about getting these requests filled quickly. However, nothing is more annoying to anapplicant than having to wait around for an admission decision just becauseyour undergrad institution is overwhelmed with requests.

7. Waiting until thelast minute to request recommendations.  

Remember that those individuals that you are asking to write letters of recommendationare doing you a favor. These people tend to be very busy individuals –you want to give them plenty of time. It’s definitely okay to follow up withthem as deadlines approach, just remember to tread carefully on the fine lineof annoyance versus helpful reminders.

帮你写推荐信的人通常都是大忙人。 所以你一定要提前告诉他们， 让他们有充分的时间帮你写这封信。

6. Not staying on topof application deadlines.  

Deadlines are there for a reason! If you can't keep up with application deadlines, it doesn't bode well for your future in business. Also, you are more likely to get in to your top choice school if you meet the priority deadlines they set forth. Remember, not every school adheres to the same deadlines.

守时是商业人士很重要的一个品质。 所以作为申请商学院的你， 也要做到在截止日期之前递交。 现在离JHUCarey 的GlobalMBA 项目截止日期还有20天左右， 请大家抓紧时间。
