Two professional recommendation letters are required, providing information about your leadership and management potential. As such, at least one recommendation should come from your workplace; your current supervisor or manager is usually a good choice. The other recommendation should be from someone who has had a chance to evaluate you in a professional setting, for example, a client, a former supervisor or a colleague from your community service or extracurricular activities. Academic recommendations are acceptable but they are less likely to address our main interest, which is to assess your ability to work with and manage others as well as your potential for senior management. If you feel it would add value to your application, you may also upload an optional third letter of recommendation as part of the supporting documents. It is important to note that your recommenders can submit their online letters to us at their earliest convenience after receiving their links, and no later than 48 hours after the application deadline, to which you are applying.

You will input your recommeders email addresses into the online application form and then press a button to trigger emails to your recommenders. They will be asked about how they know you, asked to comment on your potential, strengths and weakness, adaptability.

Itay, there are different sections for the GEMBA, Europe, Aisa and Middle East for core courses and then then all 3 sections in fontainebleau for the electives.

Hi Dan, you will select a home campus where you will spend the first 2 periods (4 months). This will be blind to the admissions committee and will not impact your decision. After P3 you can switch campuses.

Regarding the campus switch, it is possible during the elective periods only (P 3, 4 or 5). Home campus is the campus where students are formally registered for the entire INSEAD MBA from P1 to P5.

In addition to moving between the two INSEAD campuses, students have the opportunity to take electives at Wharton, Kellogg or CEIBS (CEIBS offered only to the January class only) for one period, subject to seat availability
