Hello,
I was wondering if anyone had any advice or experience with this. I decided late in the game to start the MBA process.
UCLA would be my ideal choice, but at this point, I can only really make the 3rd round application deadline and I'd have to rush.
In this case, should I wait to apply next year in first round when more spots are available?
Thanks.

There's no harm in applying this year: they might waitlist you, and then give you an early offer for next year. What are your alternatives to the UCLA? Why not USC?

Thanks for the response. USC would be good, but just from a logistical perspective, it would be hard for me. My job is on the west side of LA (i'm applying part time), and it would almost impossible to make out there on time for their class scheduel.
The job I have now is good in that it's one of the few that pays well enough while also affording me the time to get me my MBA so I can't just quit it.

I think you'll be fine with the part-time MBAs.
