Register Today: Access Anderson Open House Event!
UCLA Anderson is having our largest open house information event of the year, Access Anderson, on October 19. In today’s post, we are answering FAQ about this upcoming event for prospective applicants interested in our full-time MBA program
Q: What is Access Anderson?
A. Access Anderson is an open house for those interested in learning more about the UCLA Anderson full-time MBA program. Attendees will receive advice on how and why to apply to our program. The MBA admissions team will be on hand to answer questions and offer insider tips. Current students and recent alumni will also be there to share their own MBA journeys, from application through career ROI. The morning will end with a Networking Fair that will give attendees the opportunity to learn more about their specific areas of career interest.
Q: Should people who have already attended another UCLA Anderson information event attend?
A. Yes! Whether you are just beginning to explore if an MBA is the next step for you or you’ve already applied (or somewhere in between), Access Anderson is a once-a-year opportunity to take a deep dive into all that Anderson has to offer. Year after year, we hear from prospective applicants and students that it’s Anderson’s culture and environment that truly set us apart from other top schools. There’s no better way to find out if Anderson is the right fit for you than by spending time with us and interacting with our community.
Q: Will I be able to get one-on-one time to ask my questions?
A. We’ve structured the event with a mix of panels and networking to give attendees the opportunity to make the most of their time on campus. The panels will address the topics that prospective students tend to ask about most frequently. The Networking Fair will give attendees the one-on-one time to talk directly with students, alumni, staff and faculty. Whether you want to learn more about a specific field of study, Anderson’s career resources, our many student clubs, or the academic opportunities we offer, we’ll be available to answer your questions.
Q: Can you give me a sneak peek into what you are looking for in prospective MBAs?
A. Most importantly, we want to maintain the culture that differentiates us from other top business schools. We want to continue strengthening diversity of all sorts in our class — including diversity of life and work experience. Our students learn as much from each other as they do in the classroom, so we build a class of 360 exceptional individuals who will thrive academically and enrich each other through their unique backgrounds, experiences and perspectives.
