【2023年入学用】University of Virginia, Darden School Essay Questions

Darden School出願用のエッセイ課題も発表されました。
MBA – Admissions – Apply – Guidelines | UVA Darden School of Business (virginia.edu)

For the 2022–23 application cycle, we will again feature short essay questions, which provides a broader platform to showcase your background and personality. These questions are a great opportunity for you to help the Darden Admissions Committee understand who you are and who you will be at Darden.

  1. Given that you will be forming lifelong connections with your classmates that extend beyond the classroom, what is important for your classmates to know about you that is not on your resumé? (200 words)
  2. Please describe a tangible example that illuminates your experience promoting an inclusive environment and what you would bring to creating an inclusive global community at Darden. (300 words)
  3. At this time how would you describe your short-term, post-MBA goal in terms of industry, function, geography, company size and/or mission and how does it align with the long-term vision you have for your career? (200 words)

Remember: We are not reading your responses with a prescribed or “right” answer in mind. We want to get to know you, not us. These questions are our opportunity to begin to get a sense of your voice, your perspective, your experiences and your writing ability. In fact, how you choose to answer a particular question is often as insightful as what you choose to write about. The best essay responses are those that are responsive to the question but also authentic and genuine. Whenever possible, show don’t tell.

One of our favorite application tips involves this feedback stage – when you share your responses with your friend, don’t tell them the prompts (at least initially). See if they can guess the questions based upon your responses. If they can, you are well on your way to finalizing your answers!

【2023年入学用】University of Virginia, Darden School Deadline

6月も中旬に差し掛かり、2023年入学に向けた出願要綱が続々と発表されております。本日はUniversity of Virginia, Darden Schoolの締め切り日を共有いたします。
MBA – Admissions – Apply – Deadlines | UVA Darden School of Business (virginia.edu)

・Early Action:8 September 2022

・Round 1:5 October 2022

・Round 2:5 January 2023

・Round 3 : 5 April 2023

個々の出願事情にもよりますが、同校のように10月にRound 1締め切り日を設定しているケースを想定した上で出願計画を策定していくことも選択肢にいれてはいかがでしょうか? ”1st Rd締め切り日=9月”というイメージが湧きますが、締め切り日は9月と1月という組み合わせのみではありませんね。

Executive Assessment (EA) Scoreで出願可能な Full-time MBAプログラム (8月30日現在)

数年前、ColumbiaとNew York Univ.がExecutive Assessment (以下 EA)スコアを受け付けると発表した当初は、EAという名前を耳にする受験生がほぼ全員と言っても過言ではありませんでした。しかし、今日においては状況も変わり、EA対策を受験スケジュールにどう組み入れるか?といったポイントも必要に応じて考えていかなけれなりません。

以下はGMACのEA関連サイトになりますが、EAスコアで受験できるFull-time MBAプログラムは増えております。
https://www.gmac.com/executive-assessment/about/accepting-schools

主なプログラムを挙げてみたいと思います。

・Carnegie Mellon Tepper School of Business
・Columbia Business School
・Duke University Fuqua School of Business
・Fordham University Gabelli School of Business
・Georgetown University McDonough School of Business
・London Business School, Masters in Leadership and Strategy (Mid-Career Program)
・MIT Sloan School of Management, Sloan Fellows Program (Mid-Career Program)
・New York University Leonard N. Stern School of Business
・Rice University Jones Graduate School of Business
・Stanford Graduate School of Business, MSx Program (Mid-Career Program)
・University of Rochester Simon Business School
・The University of Texas at Austin McCombs School of Business
・University of Virginia Darden School of Business
・Vanderbilt University Owen Graduate School of Management

皆さんの出願校リストには上記のプログラムは含まれていますか?8月はGMAT/GREを初めて受験する方々も増えてくる時期です。そうした直近のスコアを踏まえ、出願校の選定や受験戦略を推敲されたいという方は、是非ご相談へお越しください。

【2022年入学用 Deadline】U. of Virginia, Darden School

皆さん、こんにちは。Affinity英語学院の佐取です。
Darden School of Businessが2022年入学用の締め切り日を発表しました。

〇 Early Action : 2021年9月9日

〇 1st Rd:2021年10月6日

〇 2nd Rd: 2022年1月5日

〇 3rd Rd:2022年4月6日

昨シーズン、Darden SchoolはGMAT, GREに加え、Executive Assessment (EA),そしてMCAT (医学部入学希望者用の学力試験)、LSAT (法科大学院入学希望者用の学力試験)のスコアも認めるなど、他校以上に出願しやすい環境作りに対して柔軟な姿勢を示しました。

今シーズンも上記のテストスコアは使用可です。日本人受験生の場合、GMATとGREといる従来のテストに加え、EAスコアがテストの候補に該当するでしょうか?

Standardized Test Waiver Request:University of Virginia, Darden School

先日、Darden SchoolよりStandardized Test Waiver申請に関する発表がありました。
https://apply.darden.virginia.edu/register/?id=0ac4376d-8771-4bbf-a102-e04eb2f557c2&_ga=2.122622027.1570336211.1594972239-684183572.1594972239

Full-time MBA Standardized Test Waiver Request

As a pilot for our 2020-2021 application cycle (i.e. Class of 2023), we are pleased to announce a standardized test waiver.

If you are applying in Round 3 for our class starting this August (i.e. Class of 2022), this waiver request process does NOT apply, and you should submit a standardized test score – GMAT, GRE, MCAT, LSAT, ACT, SAT – with your application materials.

Waiver requests for the 2020-2021 application cycle will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis, and our Admissions Committee will consider a number of factors when evaluating these requests. Particular regard will be given for indicators of academic and professional accomplishment, including but not limited to:

  • A strong undergraduate and/or graduate record including performance in analytical coursework or disciplines
  • CPA or CFA designation or other professional certification/discipline
  • Master’s or advanced degree in an analytical discipline
  • Seven (7) or more years of progressive, professional work experience in an analytical field
  • Strong performance on a U.S. college admissions test (SAT and/or ACT) or a national exam administered for admission to bachelor’s study in other countries

These factors will be considered in combination with resume and transcripts for all degree-related coursework. Candidates who present a strong profile across several criteria (including supporting materials) are more likely to be granted a test waiver than candidates who meet only one criterion. We recommend revewing our Standardized Test FAQs before submitting your waiver request.

To be considered for a waiver of our standardized test requirement, please complete the required fields and upload the appropriate documentation when prompted.

7月も後半に差し掛かってきました。これから先は出願候補先の情報も定期的にチェックするなど、テスト対策と出願対策の準備を並行させながら進めていきましょう。
