One question. One hundred and forty characters. $37,000.

It’s no game show — the University of Iowa’s Tippie MBA full-time program is awarding one full financial award package to an applicant who most creatively answers the question, “What makes you an exceptional Tippie MBA candidate and full-time MBA hire? Creativity encouraged!”, in 140 characters or less on Twitter.

The award will go to a student entering the program this fall.

Jodi Schafer, director of recruiting and admissions for the Tippie School of Management full-time MBA program, said the application Tweet can take the place of the application essay for candidates who are vying for the award, which is valued at $37,000.
