It took me two years to prepare for the GMAT while working, and I scored 700 on it. My employer's CEO and CIO, an F100 company, were both University of Chicago MBA Booth school of business grads, and they wrote a recommendation on my behalf. I got accepted shortly after that.
It is not about the major. It's who you know, or who knows you that really matters
Op here. Good idea. DS is a D3 athlete, I will suggest he ask his coach about networking opportunities with alums of his sport (although I'd guess all the econ and engineering majors on his team will be doing the same!).
