Current 1Y at Kellogg. If you’re not looking to pivot, the program is an incredible career accelerator with an exceptionally tight-knit class. The unique structure—having all 1Ys together in Evanston during the summer without first/second years—really strengthens those bonds. Unless you’re using an MBA to make a major career change, I highly recommend it.
Probably NOT as competitive because there are fewer folks who are applying.
It is a great program if you are looking to accelerate your career not make a major change.
Also, you need to have completed several 'core' classes to be eligible for Kellogg 1Y.
You are in a smaller cohort (summer start) that then blends into the larger group of second years returning from their internships.
One nice thing about 1Y is that Kellogg 'saves' some leadership roles in clubs for those who start in the summer so you can be engaged in initiatives, not just be a member.
As said above, 1Y has prereqs to make sure you have taken certain courses. I have seen that the cohorts tend to be close because they spend the summer before second years come back in the fall. Unsure on competitiveness relatively to the two year program.
If you're looking to pivot, it probably isn't great because you don't get an opportunity to do a summer internship but if you want to make a small change, then it can be helpful. You'll have access to the same electives for the most part as 2Y. I'd probably recommend the program for folks who are pretty decisive.
