Stay on top of your applications with the Clear Admit MBA Planner!

Applying to business school is a time-consuming and complex process. In parallel with researching one’s target schools and connecting with students and alumni, a candidate must juggle recommenders, transcripts and multiple essays for every program on his or her list. The Clear Admit MBA Planner provides organizational tools and puts a wealth of school-specific information at your fingertips, saving valuable time and keeping your applications on track.

Here’s what you get with the MBA Planner:

Program Information

When first investigating schools of interest, MBA applicants typically spend hours searching each school’s website for the information they need to make meaningful comparisons between programs and iron out application requirements. The MBA Planner brings the data to you. Access student demographic information, job placement and salary statistics, application deadlines, essay questions and more – all within moments – right on your iPhone or iPod Touch. With 30 U.S. and 17 international MBA programs covered in the current release, the MBA Planner is a significant time-saver for candidates targeting a wide range of schools.

Application Organizer

Once you’ve selected your target schools, the MBA Planner keeps you on target to meet your deadlines. The app’s To Do feature generates a checklist of application components for each school, visually representing what you’ve done and what you have left. Meanwhile, the My Schools Dashboard provides a snapshot of the bigger picture. With running countdowns to each deadline and a progress bar reflecting the completeness of each application, you’ll be able to plan your time and prioritize your work at a glance.

Digital Notepad

Inspiration can strike at any time. The MBA Planner lets you capture your essay ideas and school-related notes when you’re away from your computer. The app features a Notes field for each and every essay, meaning you can sit and brainstorm on the train, jot down ideas that come to mind while you’re walking down the street, and even compose whole sentences and paragraphs that you can cut and paste into an email to get feedback from friends. A separate section for school-specific notes allows you to record things you learn from students or alumni, and questions you’d like to ask when you speak with them again, facilitating your research process and ensuring that your knowledge of the program will come through in your applications.

Contact Manager

The MBA Planner makes managing your application communication a breeze. Each school profile includes admissions office contact information, meaning that you can call with a quick question or visit the program’s website with just a quick touch. Drawing from your iPhone or iPod Touch contacts, the MBA Planner lets you attach recommenders to each application, making those friendly reminder calls extra convenient. Similarly, you can associate students and alumni school-by-school, helping you keep track of who you met where. You can even include notes about what you discussed and your plans for following up.
