Reminder-Kellogg's Part 1 and Off-Campus Interview due 12/18

[JCC]

Dear Friends,
This serves a gentle but important reminder that Kellogg’s Part 1 Application and Off-Campus Interview Request are all due 12/18, 3 days from now. I know many people would miss the deadlines due to Kellogg application's very unique nature as it is divided into Part 1 and Part 2 per below descriptions.

Official website links:
1) For Kellogg’s official application page: http://www.kellogg.northwestern.edu/Hom ... lying.aspx
2) For Kellogg’s Part 1 and Part 2 deadline explanations and deadlines (posted below): http://www.kellogg.northwestern.edu/Pro ... lines.aspx

Q: Why does Kellogg have a two-part application?
A: Kellogg requires all applicants to request an interview. Submission of Part I of the application allows candidates to request an interview and designate their interview preference (on campus vs. off campus) prior to completing the entire application. Submitting an off-campus interview request does not guarantee an interview, however. The interview may be waived in areas of high demand or remote location. If an interview preference is not selected or if an on-campus interview is not scheduled by the designated deadline, the interview will be waived.

Q: What is required in Part I and Part II of the application?

1) Part I (Due 12/18)
- Data form: biographical information, educational experience, academic honors, extracurricular activities, work history, self reported GMAT and TOEFL scores.
- Interview request:
- To request an off-campus interview: Select the appropriate off-campus interview request box in Part I and submit by the deadline designated below. The admissions committee will notify candidates of an interview assignment or interview waiver via e-mail or an interview may be waived in areas of high demand or remote location. A waived interview does not negatively affect your application. Off-campus interview assignments may take up to eight weeks depending upon demand and location.
- To request an on-campus interview: Select the on-campus interview request box in Part I and submit by the deadline designated below. Allow two business days before calling the admissions office at 847-491-3308 to schedule an oncampus interview. Appointments may fill up four to six weeks in advance.
- $250 non-refundable application fee payable only by credit card.

2) Part II (Due 1/14)
- Register two recommenders to complete and submit the online letter of recommendation
- Scanned transcript(s)
- Scanned test scores, if available
- Essays
- Résumé
- Kellogg Honor Code

Q: For One-Year and International Applicants
A: We strongly recommend One-Year and international applicants apply by the Round 2 application deadline. Applicants applying in Round 3 will be at a disadvantage since the Kellogg School typically admits One-Year and international applicants during Rounds 1 and 2 to allow adequate time for relocation and visa/processing.

As a result, please link the official website and complete Part 1 ASAP for basic info first and then prepare the essays and recommendations for Plart 2. Good luck to all the friends and ganbadeyo! : )
