This year, Anderson has one updated essay question that is required for first-time applicants and optional for re-applicants.
UCLA MBA Application Essays
Required Essay: Tell us about a recent personal or professional achievement and how it connects to your MBA goals. (250 words maximum)
Strong essays describe the impact of your achievement and clarify its connection to your future MBA plans in the short- and long-term. We look forward to learning about the specific ways your achievement helped set you up for future success.
Optional Essay: No preference is given in the evaluation process to those who choose to respond to this optional essay, so please use your best judgment.
Are there any extenuating circumstances in your profile about which the Admissions Committee should be aware? (250 words maximum)
Reapplicants
Reapplicants are those who applied to the MBA program within the last two application years, so those who applied three or more years ago are considered new applicants.
Reapplicants may answer one or both of the essay questions above as options, and they must provide additional updates within text boxes given in the application for any new test scores, career developments, or other changes since their last application.
