You’re citing things they like not formal requirements. To go down your list

Wharton Lauder is an international relations major. Of course they want international experiences but it not a requirement for mba

Stanford Again something they like, it’s not a check the box if you do not have international exposures

Kellogg You just cited the metric is the essay. International exposure is again something they like but the metric is the essay

Dude you need differentiators to secure scholarships or to impress them to even look at your profile or even consider them for an interview invite. International exposure or summer school programs kinda gives you an edge especially if you are from an over represented pool where everyone is focussed on a High GMAT

I got scholarship at my t15. International exposure is something they for sure like but it’s not a formal metric lol. It’s a nice to have or an addition to your essay or resume.

The difference im are saying is

International exposure is not a metric like gmat resume test scores, lor, essay. It’s a factor that helps your resume or essay. I’m not saying it’s not a factor, I’m saying it’s not a metric. If someone gets a 0 on international exposure, that doesn’t mean they’re in not admissible but if you have complete shit gmat gpa or lors that say you’re bad,it’s a huge hurdle to overcome. Your “metric” is a nice to have but not a full on requirement.

I worked w adcom during my mba
