2010 Master of Accounting applicants UNITE!

Congrats! Msa or mas?

Posted from my mobile device

Guys,

Here are some updates. I posted my personal data on the first page.

As I mentioned before, I got a rejection mail from Notre Dame in January. After that, denied from Baruch College about 10 days ago(email) and also denied from UT about a week ago(online status check). After I rejected from Baruch College, I realized that I have only small chances to get an acceptance mail from USC/UNC, and started to think about alternative options.

Today, I emailed USC and UNC to ask about my status. Surprisingly, I got an immediate reply from UNC and it says that they’re still reviewing applications and will notify me the result via email later. More surprisingly, I also got a reply from USC and it says that they wanna talk to me!

I was really disappointed because of Baruch college but feeling little better now. I still have 2 chances! But waiting for interview makes me nervous…

I'm applying next year. What should I take off my list? I know I have too many...

Congrats, newlast!

Can you share your interview experience with UNC/USC? I’ll have interviews with both so..
Thank you in advance!

Anyone hear from UNC/Texas recently?

got accepted to Notre Dame and Boston College, so excited! But having trouble making the decision.

Congrats on ND and Boston. Would you mind sharing your stats? Any money coming from either?

Thanks, and sure. My numbers aren't superb, but I feel as though they are fairly competitive. My GPA is a 3.446 and I got a 580 on the GMAT.

I'm pretty confident that my resume and personal statements helped me out quite a bit for each program. I've had two internships, am VP of my school's BAP chapter, and have volunteered abroad. I feel as though the programs I applied to were looking for well rounded individuals with strong work ethics and leadership skills.

I didn't have an interview with BC, but I feel as though the interview for ND was focused on whether or not a candidate can hold a compelling conversation in a professional manner.

I got a partial scholarship for $3k at ND, but I was told if I take the GMAT and score higher, there is an opportunity for more money. I didn't receive a scholarship from BC, but I'm currently trying to change that (basically by explaining how I received a partial scholarship from ND).

GMAT 550 Q.74 V.22
GPA 3.1, MAJOR 3.7(undergraduate accounting)
WORK: 3 YRS accountant in fortune 500.
license CPA.
What is my chance to get in Baruch MSA? Thanks

i have finally heard back from all the schools!

here are the results:
UT Austin: Interviewed, but dinged
UIUC: Accepted, but decline the offer
USC: Accepted
Boston College: Accepted

pretty disappointed with UT Austin, but it is what it is. now i am trying to pick between USC and BC as i think both schools are the best fit for me. best of luck to everyone!

Anyone else? I'm applying for Fall 2011 admissions to some of the schools mentioned and it's great seeing the stats/opinions!

University of Southern California
Boston College (#1 choice)
University of Virginia
University of Michigan
American University
Bentley University

Can anyone share their experience with BC some more?!

Is there a thread for 2011 applicants? I'll be one of those applying and would love to compare notes and hear stories.
