York University (Schulich) MBA Admission Details, Application Essays, Deadlines, Program Details 2025-26

Here is a snapshot of the vital information for the applicants

ESSAY QUESTIONS

  1. Essay Question 1

    Many applicants find the essays challenging due to the word limit (max. 350 words). Please adhere to the guidelines.

    • Be clear and concise, using simple language to enhance readability.
    • Proofread your essays multiple times. Read aloud to catch mistakes that may be missed when reading silently, and consider a trusted friend or relative for a final check.
    • Use the optional essay only to clarify parts of your application—don’t feel obligated to write something just because the space is available.

  2. Essay Question 2

    Why should you complete the optional essay?

    • Many applicants use the optional essay to acknowledge and explain any gaps in their application. For example, you can describe any reasons for a lower GPA or GMAT/GRE score.
    • Any gaps in employment would also be best explained here.
    • Try to focus on what you have learned from the experience.
    • Remember to keep this essay short and simple. If the admissions committee needs further explanation on a particular issue, they will ask you.

York Schulich Essays Writing and Editing Support


I was looking only for direction for my essays from expert’s global when i signed up with them. Once i did sign up they gave me this direction in the form of a self assessment document which would help them understand me & my perspective better. This was all I needed from them and the self introspection inspired me to write my own MBA admission essays. My mentor did write me some essays. They were written well and answered every question asked but were definitely run-of-the-mill. My interaction with my mentor was at a minimum because I had already understood what I wanted. That being said, I have to credit Expert’s Global for pushing me to self introspect (with the self assessment document) myself which led me to join my dream school, Babson College.
