Cornell MBA essays are about showing who you are, what drives you, and how Johnson fits into your goals. A strong essay clearly explains your career path, the impact you hope to make, and why Johnson is the right place to get there. Be specific—mention programs like the Immersion Learning or the Park Leadership Fellows if they connect with your plans. Don’t try to sound overly polished. The admissions team prefers honesty, clarity, and personal insight over flashy language. Back your goals with real examples from your past.
