What do you wear to an Information Session?

I usually go just wearing khaki pants and a polo but I've seen people turn up in everything without any one really caring. I've seen people turn up in jeans and a polo and shorts and t-wso/">shirt. I don't think it really matters but you should probably go dressed at least half decent.

Business casual is the way to go

Don't listen yo Yacht_man or buttercup87, they don't know what they are talking about. Here is what you wear

P.S.: don't wear a backpack, you'll look like a retard

P.P.S.: in all seriousness, I've attended both target and non-target schools' events. 90% of students were in business wso/">suits. I usually attend events in nice pants, wso/">dress shirt, and tie.

Where do I find the wso/">suit you linked above...?

Wear a wso/">suit. If I'm presenting and am wearing a wso/">suit, I want you to be as well. Keep it classy.

A lot of kids go wearing cheap wso/">suits. You gotta keep it classy and casual tho, dress like tony soprano

I recommend a wso/">suit, or, at the very least, business casual plus blazer. Most students will be wearing something similar to this, and those that don't look like they belong in class and not with business professionals (who are probably wearing wso/">suits, or business casual at the least, as well). If this were a networking session outside of school, then business casual would probably be fine (based on event descriptions and recommendations), but since it is an on campus event, I would definitely not hold back - go wso/">suit, or at least business casual plus blazer - better to be slightly overdressed than very underdressed.

I think that business casual is fine for on campus events. I can't speak from the side of a recruiter but I would appreciate a kid who looked presentable (read: clean shaven, wso/">shirt tucked in, decent shoes on) but I wouldn't expect a wso/">suit. You will be meeting with someone for a few minutes tops and I don't think they will be analyzing whether you are business casual or wearing a wso/">suit.

Do you always wear a suit to an information session? (Originally Posted: 08/29/2011)

I see some people wearing dress pants and just a dress shirt, or maybe sometimes a sweater too. But is a suit the preferred attire?

Tie at Information Session? (Originally Posted: 09/13/2009)

So, what's everybody's opinion about what to wear to an information session? I'm going white shirt, dress pants, dress shoes, but am undecided about tie / no tie. What do you all think? Thanks.

Goldman has an info session at my school and it says the dress code is business casual. Should I still wear a suit?

Wearing a suit to HBS 2+ 2info session? (Originally Posted: 03/15/2010)

Ok so HBS is doing an info session for 2+2 in about 6 hours, and a friend of mine just asked me if he should wear a suit to it or just go business casual. I've found a thread on this for banking info sessions, but haven't found a definitive answer for business school info sessions. What should I tell him?
