This Is Your Babson Blog | Home
From the viewpoints of current students, admission counselors and the dean of admission
October, 2008

Hello everyone. It has been a little while since any of us interns has been able to write new blogs because you have been keeping us SO busy with interviews which is AWESOME! We love getting to hear about everything you are doing and what you’re all about but we have no time for blogging [...]

Rain, rain, go away!  Today is a rainy day here at Babson. However, the leaves are still stunning even with the weather.
One thing I just love about Babson is how the curriculum is dynamic rather than static.  (Do you remember that phrase from middle school science?)  Just this week, Babson announced a new concentration, Technology [...]

This weekend, I returned from a week’s recruitment trip in Puerto Rico and the Dominican Republic.  It was great to see such a high level of excitement in each location, as I met more than 100 students and counselors during the week’s trip.  One common question I received was whether we would be able to consider test scores taken [...]

Today our campus hosts Rocket Pitch 2009.  It is one of the most exciting days we have business wise on campus.  Babson entrepreneurs “pitch” their concepts to an audience of students, faculty, entrepreneurs, investors, and service providers. Three minutes and three PowerPoint slides are given to each concept. To quote, “Pitches happen in rapid succession in [...]

Ok so I’m sure you guys read Justin’s blog about Jungle theme night at the Knight Party….This only started the beginning of dressing up like a fool for the rest of the month. For rugby, this is our last week of practice, [...]

Tiana, at a minimum, students should submit two recommendations: one from a guidance counselor and one from a teacher.  The teacher recommendation should be from someone in a major academic area: math, English, natural science, social science/history, and foreign language.  If you wish to submit a second teacher recommendation, it can be from any area, [...]

This past Sunday (October 5th), Babson hosted their annual Open House. It was a great opportunity for high school students to come on campus, meet the Admission counselors, speak to current students, and tour the college. So for all of you who missed Open House, make sure you catch a Preview Day at Babson (upcoming dates [...]

Goodbye Europe!  I am back at Babson after spending two weeks traveling throughout Europe.  I began in Thessaloniki, which is in northern Greece, working my way around the continent.  I look back and think, “Did I really visit all these places?” During my time abroad, I visited schools in Thessaloniki, Athens, Istanbul, Paris, Geneva, Zurich, [...]
