In the name of everyone – thank you Kristen! You have done a great job here today! I personally learned quite a few new things about Chicago (especially the less-finance-oriented aspects), and I am sure that others as well.

Another question if I may, one that interests many of the Israeli applicants.

Johanna, Christine, Eyal – can an INSEAD graduate coming from Israeli with no EU passport legally work in Europe after graduation? Can you clarify the visa terms a bit? For how long is it valid?

Johanna, to follow up on your comment of wanting to know the applicant beyond work – can you elaborate a bit more about what you want to know and what would make a "strong outside of work applicant"?
