Each One Get One & Alum Referral Programme
A key input from the feedback forms for the Information Sessions
that we conducted at various locations was appreciation of the
quality and value of the interactions that prospective students had
with our alumni and current students at various locations. The
Admissions Office would like to thank all ISB alumni for your
continuing support in this regard.
A
key imperative now is to ensure the quality and consistency of the
applicant pool. In this regard, we believe that each one of you has
a valuable role to play as validators and demonstrators of the ISB
model.
We
invite you to encourage at least one potential MBA student with
leadership potential to apply to the ISB. The second admission
deadline is coming up on November 15, though international passport
holders can apply through the rolling process till January 31, 2008.
Since you all know the diversity fit profiles that we look for, we
would derive the advantage of a validated pool of applicants to
select from.
If
you know an outstanding candidate, who had already applied and you
would like to further recommend, please email Sanjay Singh,
Assistant Director Admissions at
sanjay_singh@isb.edu , giving their name along with your insight
comments, for use by us during the evaluation process.![](Images/top.gif)
