Kellogg’s 2021 application volume was 4,632, the highest it’s been since 2014 (the first year of data in the school's current admissions system and database) barring 2020, when Kellogg waived the GMAT/GRE requirement during the onset of Covid-19, which resulted in an unusually high number of applications. This year the school declined to report the number of applications in the 2021-2022 cycle, but a decline was expected given economic and other factors.
