As the April 8, 2024, deadline for Darden’s Future Year Scholars Program (FYSP) looms, here are essential tips to ensure a standout application:
- Recommender Selection: Opt for individuals who can provide insights into your teamwork and leadership qualities, such as mentors or internship supervisors, over faculty members.
- Resume Crafting: Highlight impactful experiences and leadership roles on a concise 1-page resume, focusing on the quality of your engagements rather than the quantity.
- Test Score Strategy: Taking the GRE or GMAT while still in school can be advantageous, as students tend to perform better during this period. Note that FYSP candidates are not eligible for test waivers.
For comprehensive guidance, explore Darden’s array of resources, including blogs, podcasts, and YouTube content from admissions experts. Additionally, consider joining the admissions workshop on March 27 for an interactive preparation experience.
