Tired of the apps? Looking to meet new people? Rediscover the joy of socializing in-person
1. Enjoy a carefully curated list of singles from the cross-town MBA in a similar life stage with similar drive and life goals as you
2. Bring your bestie to help with any social anxiety. Don't worry, they'll be given a fun matchmaking task
3. After the date, you'll be given a scorecard to match with the new friends (and potential future dates!). If both of you mutually match, contact info will be sent out. Then, good luck y'all!
Help your single friend find their match! You DON'T have to be single OR go to Kellogg/Booth to be a bestie
As your single friend is speed dating, you'll be networking with other besties to matchmake them
Using a suggested prompt or your own, pitch your single friend to other besties/matchmakers, and help them find the right one!
After all, you know them better than they know themselves!

We're cross-town competitive MBAs with similar drive and ambition. What better group of people to make connections with than ourselves?
You'll be speed dating only people from the other school
In SNACK experience, it's a very fun and stress-free way to meet new people! No loud music to yell over, no sloppy drunk people. Very respectful and healthy way to get to know someone.
Besties know their single friends better than anyone else and champions their friends like no other. A lot of couples meet through friends. So why not let the besties take care of the hard work?
Singles get 6 minute per person. Through the course of an hour, you'll get to know 10 new people!
No, not at all! Speed date aims to create a good first impression which leads to more discovery meetings?
Refer to the facts for singles section for application, timeline, and what to do
We want the first event to feature a diversity of programs, cultural and professional backgrounds, and life experiences. The application is to select a good range of representation.
You are not expected to share contact info during the event.
After the event, you'll be sent scorecard which will have pictures and names of the 10 people you met. You can indicate whether you would like to see them again or not. If you both indicate liking each other, great! We will send contact info to both so you can continue talking.
They're not the right person for you. Keep in touch with SNACK as we throw more fun events like this to meet people.
