Just a reminder that the GMATCH Virtual MBA Fair, hosted by the Graduate Management Admissions Council (GMAC), is coming up later this month, on November 22nd and 23rd.
The event, which GMAC touts as the first truly virtual fair bringing business schools together with prospective applicants wherever they are in the world, will feature a rich graphical interface with virtual booths and a multimedia auditorium. Participants can interact face to face with admissions professionals from top schools via webcam.
More than 40 business schools have signed up to participate in GMATCH, including London Business School, INSEAD, the University of Virginia’s Darden School of Business, Georgetown University’s McDonough School of Business, the UCLA Anderson School of Management, the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology and Nanyang Business School.
The event will be open for four hours on each November 22nd and 23rd at times designed to serve the needs of prospective applicants in different time zones. The November 22nd session is intended to suit the schedules of people in the Americas, Europe, the Middle East and Africa, and the session set for November 23rd is aimed at individuals in Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Asia and the Pacific Islands.
“Today’s global economy means international recruitment is particularly important for MBA programs around the world,” Julia Tyler, GMAC’s executive vice president of member services and school marketing, said in a statement. “GMAC is pleased to play a key role in helping business schools and students tap the power of technology to connect with each other conveniently and effectively, no matter where they happen to be.”
