Duke Daytime MBA Student Blog

In just five days, I experienced the heart of Team Fuqua: a place where collaboration thrives, kindness abounds, and every voice matters.

When applying to business schools last year, it seemed like most of the schools were very similar, but a campus visit helped me understand Fuqua's values.

Attending an admitted students’ weekend was critical to helping finalize my decision to attend Fuqua.

For those of you that are planning to submit an application this year, here are some things that have changed and some advice on how to approach the application and the overall school research and admissions process.

School fit was an essential criterion when evaluating which school would be the best choice for me. Thus, attending the Workshop was a crucial step in my search process. Throughout the weekend, I was able to get a real sense of Fuqua’s overall community.

I remember two years ago, with the GMAT out of the way, I was confident that I had just completed the hardest part of the application process. Then, all of a sudden, it hit me: I had no idea what program was truly right for me

The Duke MBA Admissions team has made several changes to our application process this year with the goal of increasing accessibility to all applicants, streamlining the process, and providing the greatest number of applicants the opportunity to meet with Duke MBA students and staff in person

Attending Blue Devil Weekend not only helped me understand what’s special about The Duke MBA, but also led me to join the class of 2020. In my opinion, it is the best pre-MBA experience for any Fuqua admit.
