Resume
Your professional resume, uploaded with the application.
Essays
Goizueta publishes this year's prompts and word limits with the application. Start drafting early.
Recommendations

A week-by-week plan for Round 2
- By November 18Ask your recommenders and tell them the January 6 deadline. Book a test date if you don't have a score yet.
- November 25 – December 16Draft and redraft your essays. Update your resume so it matches what you'll write in the application.
- By December 16Fill in the application form itself: personal details, education, jobs, activities. Leaving this to the last week is how people end up rushing.
- Around December 23Check in on your recommendations. Proofread everything with fresh eyes.
- By January 5Submit a day early. Portals slow down near the cutoff.
Fill the Goizueta form in minutes, not evenings
The essays deserve your time. Re-typing your address, schools, GPA, jobs and dates into yet another portal doesn't.
- Save your details once in one profile, or import them from your resume.
- One click fills the form on Goizueta and the other schools you're applying to.
- Your essays stay yours. Long answers are only filled if you turn that on.
