They also sent me an email, saying they will be here in Chicago for get together of applicants, alumni, admission committee members etc. I don't think i will go. I can't go, though it would have been nice to go.
here is the email:
I’m not sure if we’ve had the chance to meet, but I see that you have submitted an application to the Illinois MBA.
