So, not only are extracurricular and community service activities powerful in showing an MBA candidate’s benevolence, but they also help create the impression that the applicant is constantly pursuing goals and is therefore predisposed to success.</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"><br /> </span><span id="more-13224"></span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">We regularly encounter applicants who say, “I have been so busy professionally that I haven’t had time to volunteer, but I was really active during college.” In almost all cases, however, as candidates get further from their college years, their undergraduate experience becomes decreasingly relevant. Although having a record of consistent achievement throughout college and into one’s professional life is best, MBA applicants are often evaluated on a “What have you done for me lately?” basis—meaning that contemporary community service is generally more important.</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"><br /> </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">MBA admissions officers know that finding time to commit to external activities can sometimes be challenging, but they still see many applicants from the most competitive fields who indeed find time to give back to others. So, if you had a rich and rewarding college experience filled with leadership, in short, keep that trend going. You have a powerful complement to your contemporary involvements, but not a substitute. ?</span></p> <hr /> <p><a href="//www.mbamission.com/"><b><i><img decoding="async" class="alignleft wp-image-13225 size-full" src="https://cdn2.manhattanprep.com/gmat/wp-content/uploads/sites/18/2017/02/logo-150x150.png" width="150" height="150" />mbaMission</i></b></a><b><i> is the leader in MBA admissions consulting with a full-time and comprehensively trained staff of consultants, all with profound communications and MBA experience.</i></b><i><span style="font-weight: 400;"> mbaMission has helped thousands of candidates fulfill their dream of attending prominent MBA programs around the world.
