The courses at HHL also gave me important tools and a profoundly broad knowledge base, which supported me in my development as a consultant and during my first steps at McKinsey. The freedom to combine three majors probably reflects best how much the academic profile of HHL allows students to tailor their general management toolkit. In my view, this is an outstanding asset for a generalist consulting path.
Our student community is a carefully selected collegial network of motivated peers. We not only take hard facts into consideration, such as bachelor grades or HHL Entry Test/GMAT but also your personality, your motivation and your ambition.
