Holy sh*t I just got into business school!

ok im on the phone wit family now but in meantime cut and paste from previous trhead below...
Well, on Wednesday I started my drive to Rochester and stopped overnight in Pittsburgh to stay with my uncle/cousins. Thursday I got to Rochester, checked out the business school, sat in on a class, and met some of the MBA students (Simon School at U of Roch.) Friday I had my interview, and then one of the 2nd year students took me on a guided tour and then took me out to lunch.

I was pretty impressed with the school facilities, student body, and committment from the alumni (they have a very strong network...I met an alum who flew in from Turkey where she's been living for 7 years since graduation just to visit her profs and show her children the campus!) Verdict is still out on the quality of their marketing/e-commerce program and the faculty (professors aren't on campus much during the summer so I couldn't meet the real profs--only the understudies.) I don't think I'll get in because I'm only an average candidate and I applied REALLY late for the MBA. But it was good experience for when I try again next year.
 
Congrats man, I'll be applying to a few when I graduate in Spring 2005 with my Finance and Business Administration degrees.
 
UIUC has a massive business school. It's fed by the engineers who fail out. 😀

Good luck and party hard!
 
Congrats to you ! I'm going to start my grad school this fall as well and I got a Full graduate assistantship as well. Free tuition plus a nice sum of stipend.

More info later!

considering this is BUSINESS school we're talking about, more like it calls for a 4-year drinking binge 😉

At least, based on the business majors I know.

Makes sense though, the business world is all about making connections and social interactions, which are of course facilitated by alcohol...
 
You're not going to be one of those guys that spends half his life in school are you? 😉

Just kidding. Good job.

Congrats to both of you!

I as well am starting my Masters in Physiological Science at UCLA this fall. GSR (graduate student researcher) granted as well = free tuition and monthly stipend. Beers all around :beer:

Okay. Considering that Chinese males outnumber every other demographic at UCLA (including white males), I'd have to say STFU.

And it's "their," not "there," you dumb sh!t.
