Part-Time MBA Program Rules for Eligibility • You must have not received ANY tuition reimbursement from your present employer. OR • Your current employer no longer offers tuition assistance as a benefit; if the amount has been greatly reduced you have chosen not to accept it. OR • You must have written authorization from your present employer allowing you to enter the OCR process. Part-Time MBA Program Rules for Eligibility In order to register for OCR for the 2011/2012 season • You must be graduating between December 2011 and August 2012. • You have not previously registered to use On Campus Recruiting. • You must remain fully employed throughout your PT MBA career. Part-Time MBA Program The Registration Form • Required basic demographic information – Use only Kellogg email address • • • • Number of years of work experience Number of courses completed by end of Spring 2011 Career Development Series status Whether or not you received financial assistance from your current employer • If you have rec’d assistance, the name and number of your manager and your hr representative • All information will be verified The Authorization Letter • The letter must be from your manager or department head. • The person signing the letter must also include his/her official title and direct phone number. • All information will be verified. Part-Time MBA Program Why the rules? • Given that most students receive some tuition reimbursement from their employers, an approach of limited assistance is appropriate. • It would raise ethical problems for the school to provide direct On Campus Recruiting assistance to PT MBA students without authorization.

They are only on-campus the day they schedule interviews. – By mid-August you will know the date, job description and which companies are coming for OCR. – You will write cover letters for closed interviews and bid on open interviews. This process is explained in the summer workshops. – Once you secure an interview, it is locked into the computer. – If you have to cancel an interview, you must cancel 3 business days in advance, so that another student is given the opportunity to fill that spot. – Traveling for work, last minute meetings, emergency projects, etc. are NOT acceptable excuses to miss interviews. If you “no show”, KSA established a $200 fine that is assessed.
