Cambridge Judge Business School standing handsomely in the snow on TwitpicJames Barker, MBA admissions coordinator for University of Cambridge’s Judge Business School, offered four application tips via Twitter this week.
Cambridge MBA Application Tip #1 — “Be original in your essays. We want a sense of your personality and contribution to the programme.”
Cambridge MBA Application Tip #2 — “Articulate your career goal clearly. If you don’t have one yet this is fine but show why and some options.”
Cambridge MBA Application Tip #3 — “Have you told GMAC to release your GMAT score to us yet? Contacted referees? Do this as early as you can.”
Cambridge MBA Application Tip #4 — “Be sure to allow time to check your application for typing errors. We see an amazing number of these!”
