Printing PDF of HBS application

by navenjohnson » Fri Sep 06, 2013 11:01 am
All,

I am currently filling out the online application for HBS, but don't see an option for viewing a pdf of the form. Does anyone here know how to print a pdf of the application?

Hey there,

Most colleges utilize the same platform where you can view a PDF proof after you have completed the application (but before you actually submit it). Most do not offer you the option to view an uncompleted PDF version.

FYI - it is unformatted so it may cut off some of your responses, etc. The adcoms see a better formatted version of it so don't worry about that.

Yes, what Bhavik said! I want to reiterate how important it is to save the PDF of your application when you have the opportunity to do so. Also, save it with a descriptive name (Your Full Name_Full Name of School_Application) to make it easy to find on your computer several years later when you are a successful MBA alum and a good friend wants to see your application as a reference. :)

If you can't find a way to view it as PDF, you can still save it by taking a lot of screen shots and pasting them on a document on your computer.
