Kellogg Preview Days
Preview the Kellogg Experience
Immerse yourself in our vibrant community and academic culture at our upcoming Kellogg Preview Days. Experience what makes Kellogg unique by participating in an academic session taught by our world-class faculty, engaging with current students to learn more about campus life and further connecting with Admissions Officers from Kellogg’s Full-Time MBA programs.
Each of our Preview Days will create a distinctive experience with each date being co-hosted by Kellogg student clubs, showcasing how their pathways and perspectives led them to becoming a Kellogg student. Kellogg Preview Days are open and inclusive to everyone, regardless of the day you choose to attend.
What To Expect
Academic session
The best way to understand Kellogg's rigorous, innovative curriculum is experiencing it for yourself. Academic sessions at our Preview Days are designed to immerse you in our classroom culture, showcase Kellogg's cross-functional instruction and connect with our faculty.
Career presentation
Whether you're looking to make a career switch, advance in your current industry or launch something new, the Kellogg Career Management Center partners with you to find the right connections, insights and opportunities. Preview Day sessions with the Career Management Center will show you how Kellogg prepares students to meet their personal and professional goals.
Multiple events to connect with current students and alumni
Fellow students are such a crucial part of the Kellogg community. That's why we co-host each Preview Day session with one or more of our student clubs. Current students host multiple sessions each Preview Day to answer questions as well as share their firsthand experiences as a Kellogg student. Additionally, those attending in-person Preview Day sessions will get the opportunity to hear insights from Kellogg alumni and tour the Global Hub to learn more about how our elite facility fosters student connection, professional development and collaboration.
Kellogg Veterans Association Programming
For those who were unable to attend the spring Kellogg Veterans Association Preview Day, join KVA members during the Preview Days co-sponsored by the KSA on October 13 and 20 to learn more about life as a veteran MBA student. Have questions about the application process, career paths, the GI Bill and veterans benefits? We'll have a member of our team available throughout the day.
