Introduction

I intend of applying to B-school for the fall of 2010 and would appreciate any information or network that could help facilitate a smooth process. And potentially meet future colleagues.

What Kenna Ellis is saying about this Meetup Group

No matter how confident you feel about your chances of getting accepted to your favorite business program; you might learn something that you weren't aware of that could make your application and GMAT score even better. The flip side is that because it is an informal atmosphere; you may have helpful insight for the group as well. Great workshop to attend!
