<p>Does anybody have any positive or negative info about the Kelley Women in Business student organization. My D, a direct admit/Hutton freshman, is very interested. Apparently each year over 100 students apply and interview for 20 spots. What makes a first year student competitive if they have only been at IU 2 weeks? Any insight is appreciated.</p>
<p>My initial thought was “Everything at Kelley is competitive!” so of course they interview/select only a few…it’s the Kelley way. 
In all seriousness, good for your daughter for jumping in and getting involved right off the bat! </p>
<p>I don’t have any direct knowledge of WIB but based upon my daughter’s experience with Kelley clubs my guess is they are looking for students who have demonstrated success at leading/getting results. So encourage your daughter to highlight relevant high school experiences where she contributed to the success of an event/activity. She wants to convey her enthusiasm about what she can do for WIB rather than what WIB can do for her. </p>
<p>Thankfully, there are so many IU and Kelley clubs/activities that even if WIB doesn’t work out she has lots of other stuff to dive into. Best of luck to her!</p>
<p>WIB is a very strong student organization in Kelley, perhaps the strongest. 200-300 girls show up for the callout and take 20 women. They will look at high school experiences/grades, but it also comes down to how she presents herself. There are many sorority women in WIB, so they are looking for those who will fit in with them. </p>
<p>Any body hear?</p>
