May 31: Writing Standout HBS Essays (Online)

Harvard Business School (HBS) receives more than 9,000 applications each year. How will you ensure that your essays will grab the attention of an overworked HBS admissions officer? In our newest presentation, Writing Standout HBS Essays, we will help you conceptualize your essay ideas and understand how to execute them, so that your experiences truly stand out. You do not need to be actively working on a $5 billion deal or have won an Olympic gold medal to get into HBS. You just need to have done the everyday things remarkably well, and you must make sure that your essays reflect your actions.

mbaMission Senior Consultant Jessica Shklar will lead this session and will remain online afterward to answer any additional questions about HBS’s essays and other admissions issues of importance to you.
