MBA in MBA (MIT Sloan Fellows)

Our guiding principles are to help you develop critical skills essential for future leaders; to instill a spirit of innovation through exceptional opportunities at Sloan and across MIT; to foster a deep spirit of community among Fellows; to provide a breadth of electives and depth through one-on-one relationships with senior faculty, and to offer a flexible curriculum to allow you to tailor the program to meet your specific professional objectives. We accomplish this by maintaining a foundation in our three pillars of leadership, innovation, and global perspective. Taking the above into consideration please submit a cover letter seeking a place in the MIT Sloan Fellows MBA program. Your letter should conform to standard business correspondence, include one or more examples that illustrate why you meet the desired criteria, and be addressed to the Admissions Committee (300 words or less).

A detailed recommendation can tell us a lot about you. Make sure you select an individual qualified to speak about your results as a professional and your potential as a leader. Some important details: -SFMBA applicants must submit one letter of recommendation. -A recommendation from a professional contact is preferred, ideally a manager or supervisor. -We do not accept recommendations from family members. You must provide contact information for two additional professional references. If we still have questions after reading your application, we might reach out to your additional references. Similar to your recommender, these additional reference contacts should be able to speak to your professional and/or academic background. These two individuals should be different from your recommender.

To help us better understand your current role and the impact that you have on your team and department, please submit an organizational chart. We should be able to clearly understand the internal structure of your organization, where you sit in your organization and your line of reporting. Organizational charts should not be more than two pages and keep the following in mind: Give us as much details as possible (names, titles, etc.) but it’s ok to redact names if you need to. -Make sure we can easily identify where you are, to whom you report, and if applicable, who reports to you. -If your recommender or references are on your organizational chart (they may not be, and that’s ok!), please highlight them for us. -Most applicants only submit one page. However, you are welcome to submit a second if you recently changed positions or companies. -If you are a consultant, entrepreneur, or affiliated with the military review our FAQs for suggestions on how to approach the organizational chart.

Please submit a resume (no more than two pages) to help us track your academic and career path. Try to focus on your work results, not just your title or job description. Provide the following information in reverse chronological order: -Education: Please include relevant awards, scholarships, and professional societies -Work Experience: Please include company name, title, results-oriented bullets that demonstrate your skill set, and dates -Additional information: Please include extracurricular activities/community service, technical skills/certifications, special skills/interests, and languages spoken (if applicable)
