Mind Mapping Columbia Business School - A Visualization Tool for Applicants

Columbia Business School rolled out a few updates to their MBA website this week, and well, I could not find a few things. Beyond the fact that the timing is questionable (with the Early Decision deadline coming up), I have often wondered why many b-school most valuable marketing asset (their website) often looks like they were designed by the accounting department.

Truth be told, I give Columbia's MBA website a better than average grade. However, I wanted to see if I could simplify it for those applicants currently working on their essays and application, while trying to figure out "Why Columbia?" I created a visual representation (mindmap) of the site, which ended up looking like the New York subway system, and I wanted to share it with you. Hopefully this will allow you to see where you fit into CBS' clubs, curriculum and student culture.

Feel free to download a copy of this mindmap or create your own online copy and edit as you please.
