While most workshop graduates accept positions with consulting firms, the skills learned and friendships made in the workshop are valuable, whatever career path a member may choose to pursue.
Workshop application and admission
Any second year Kelley student and who has not been and is not a member of another Kelley Workshop—is eligible to apply.
There is no one formula for admission to the Workshop. In general, we look for characteristics that are similar to the ones for which many consulting firms look—e.g., analytical ability, leadership, teamwork, other interpersonal skills, impact, integrity, etc.
Applications generally are due by the end of December. The exact due date can be found on the Consulting Workshop website.
Application decisions are communicated when the interview process is completed, typically by the beginning of April. The exact timing will depend on the number of applications received.
Detailed information about the application process and timeline (and a link to the application) is available on the Consulting Workshop website.
