>> Kelli Sauls, Associate Director, University of Virginia, Darden School of Business: You

can stand out in the application process by, first, just following the directions on the

application. Knowing that you're a good fit for the program and being able to exemplify

that throughout the admissions process is really important. But also, in the interview

process and any opportunity that you get a chance to interact with any member of the

community.

>> Robert Chabot, Director of Admissions, Ohio State University, Fisher College of Business:

Something that, I think, a lot of students don't realize is, how you interact with the

office is something that would definitely be taken into account by the admissions committee.

Because every interaction with the admissions office is typically tracked, monitored, and

it's remembered. So, if somebody with a pleasant personality, somebody that show enthusiasm,

somebody who show energy is somebody who gets more consideration than not.

>> Jay Bryant, Director of Admissions, Thunderbird School of Global Management: The more international

experience you have, the more languages you speak, things like that are things that we

value. Others schools are going to look at, perhaps, your background as far as quantitive

skills, or maybe that you have really worked enough financial industry, or a certain marketing,

sort of, position. But, again, that's something that you're going to want to speak with the

school about and find out what they are looking for.
