Statement of Purpose (100 words or less, Required)
Please share your short term professional goals. What role does a Notre Dame MBA play in helping you achieve these goals?
Essay Option #1
Cardinal O’Hara established the Mendoza College of Business at Notre
Dame in 1921, firmly committed to the idea that “the primary function of
commerce is service to mankind”. As the world economy continues to grow
and change, how do you see business acting as a positive force in the
world?
Essay Option #2
The University of Notre Dame was founded in 1842, by Father Edward
Sorin, C.S.C, with a mission to become “one of the most powerful means
for doing good in this country”. In 1879, Father Sorin’s vision for
Notre Dame appeared to be at a sudden, abrupt end. A massive fire
destroyed the building that housed virtually the entire University.
Instead of giving up, Father Sorin interpreted the fire as a sign that
he had dreamed too small, and decided to rebuild, bigger and better than
ever. That Main Building still stands today, topped by the gleaming
Golden Dome, not only as an iconic campus building, but as an ongoing
symbol of perseverance and vision.
Tell us the story of a time in your own life or career when you had to overcome an obstacle, start over, or rebuild.
