Kenan-Flagler 2016 Class - Calling all Admitted Students!!

I'm seriously considering this school. It suits my interest in Pharma/biotech management and marketing.
But I'm still expecting scholarship compensations from UNC.

Expecting? With a 730 GMAT and only an average GPA? What makes you so confident?

A PhD degree, memberships of some academic societies...... etc. I guess.
Besides, Chinese top universities tend to provide a lower GPA. I was recommended to the Chinese Academy of Sciences Graduate School because of my GPA already.
I got a 3.8 GPA for my PhD, though. It's easier to get a higher GPA in the US schools system. Here you don't have those mandatory politics and College English courses which draw my GPA from 3.8 to 3.55. And I found the admission officers in KFBS are aware of this situation.

It's a very different criteria. Let's see if these counts. If there is nothing in the package, I guess that's fine.
Forgive me for my overconfidence please, I'm sure that my recommendation providers include this in my recommendation letter.

That is impressive! I wish you lots of luck - if I wind up at K-F, I'd want someone with that profile in class with me!

Thanks, good luck to you on your application to Kenan-Flagler!

I was just curious that how many had got an email from Kenan Flagler that their academic history places them in the range of students who get fellowships.
I though most of the 700+ scorers got that mail but no one talks about it.

My score is 750. I never got such mail. That's bad, I guess.

Did you got an application fees waiver? sorry about too many queries but i am just curious

Yes, I did.

Hi Livery

I guess in that email only its mentioned that academic score places us in the range of students who get a fellowship. you might have missed that part

I remember that bit. I thought you received some mail after the results. But yeah, I had completely forgotten about that part. I feel little reassured and I hate that feeling.

If i dont get any scholarship then I would have to decide b/w washington olin with 60K scholarship and unc with no scholarship

My back up option is Carlson with full tution waiver. I am looking for atleast 50% schol from UNC. :Fingers Crossed:

Livery,

Wow full tuition waiver from Carlson! if you dont mind can you share ur profile with us

Apart from 750 in GMAT, I have nothing extra special in my profile. It'll be 36 months in coming july for me in Oil & Gas sector Indian PSU. My GPA is horrendous.

OP updated with facebook link

Does anybody know when kf will run a background check . I work for a small company and the situation is a bit tricky.
