Summer Office Hours
The MBA Admissions Office is open this summer, and we welcome the opportunity to meet prospective students in-person. As a future applicant, you have two options for scheduling your visit this summer:
1. MBA Admissions Open Office Hours:
We will offer informal individual information sessions for prospective students Monday through Friday between 1:00 - 3:00 p.m. through Friday, August 30th (except on the days listed below). No appointment necessary. Each session will last 15-20 minutes and is your opportunity to ask a member of the MBA Admissions staff general questions about the application process.
2. Information Sessions by Appointment:
If you need to visit at another time of day, you can schedule an informational appointment with one of the admissions directors. Each session must be scheduled in advance and will last 15-20 minutes. Again, this is your opportunity to ask questions and a chance to discuss the admissions process with a member of the Admissions Committee.
Whether you plan to visit our office during the Open Office Hours between 1:00 - 3:00 p.m. daily or for a scheduled appointment, please let us know in advance so we can issue you a parking permit and ensure that a staff member will be able to meet with you one-on-one during your visit. To do so, please email MBA_info@unc.edu or call us at (919) 962-3236 indicating the date and time you plan to visit.
Please note that we will not hold office hours or appointments on the following days:
Monday, May 27
Thursday, June 20
Friday, June 21
Friday, June 28
Thursday, July 4
Friday, July 5
Interviewing
We have an open interview policy at UNC Kenan-Flagler, meaning we will not be sending out invitations to interview. Any applicant can use the online interview scheduler to choose a convenient interview type and time and schedule their own interview. In order to gain access to the online interview scheduler, you simply need to start your application, upload your resume and submit the application fee. Once you have met these conditions, the system will show you the link to the interview scheduler (under the "Interviews and Campus Visits" tab in the application). You must interview before the appropriate deadline in order to be considered for admission. The best decision you will be able to receive if you do not interview before that deadline is "waitlist." It is your responsibility to schedule this interview by the deadline that corresponds to your application round. Interviews slots are limited and highly sought after, so we encourage you to schedule your interview as early as possible.
We encourage you to visit our campus in Chapel Hill and complete your interview during that visit. If an on-campus visit is not possible, you may schedule a phone interview. For applicants based outside of the U.S., we also offer webcam (Skype) interviews and alumni interviews (in selected locations).
All interviews, regardless of type, are equally weighed in the admissions process.
Visit our Frequently Asked Questions page for answers to additional questions you may have about the interview.
Visiting the Business School
We encourage all applicants to visit our Chapel Hill campus. You may visit campus with or without a scheduled interview. During your visit (during the academic year), depending on availability, you can choose to:
- Attend an MBA class
- Join a group of MBA students for lunch
- Tour the MBA business school
- Attend an admissions Q&A session
You can schedule this visit by logging into your account and selecting the "Interviews and Campus Visits" tab.
