All business school students admitted to Purdue University on January 30 will be emailed a link to apply to join the Larsen Leaders Academy. School faculty and staff will take a holistic approach when reviewing applications. Your essay responses, grades, leadership experience, club involvement and extracurricular activities will be evaluated.
