Editor's notes

Know what this program is for. Eller says it wants people changing function or industry or re-entering the workforce, and the class averages two years of work experience. Your statement of purpose should name the switch you're making and why 10 months is enough to make it.
Recruiting doesn't wait. Fall career fairs run in September and October, weeks after you arrive in Tucson, and the career course starts in your first summer. Walk in with a target list and a resume that's ready, because there's no second-year recruiting season to fall back on.
Sort out the test question before you apply. Eller sets a 600 GMAT minimum, but a 3.5 GPA or a terminal degree can waive it. If you don't clearly qualify for a waiver, ask the admissions coach in writing, or take the test, which the FAQ says also helps with scholarships.
Round 1 closes Oct. 20. Merit awards come from the same file with no separate form, so the earliest complete application is the one best placed for money.
