No link to the video essays yet. :/

Requested Charlene Patry to check it out for me. As my third referee submitted his recommendation only on the 10th of Jan, it appears my application was picked up only yesterday and is under review by Chris Lynch. I have been asked to wait for further instructions. So no video essay link yet. :/

Hello
I have also applied to UofA MBA on 05.01.2016.. But till date I haven't received any communication regarding Kira Talent video essays. While one of my friend got such email even before completing her full application and now got an admit. I want to know if anyone is facing same kind of situation. Please share your experiences

Even before completing her full application? that is a news! What was her GMAT score, just out of curiosity?

Where else have you applied to?
Sauder, and will be applying to Molson and Haskayne.
Cannot target top schools because of finances.!! :o

If you'd like to have options, you could also consider SFU & Telfer as they are also good schools.

Hi,

Just to add to Manoj, from what I have read, Ted Rogers Ryerson is a relatively new college and its primary advantage is that it is in the Toronto area.

But having said that even in Toronto, there are many other higher ranked colleges..

VijayG6387 regarding the video essays for Alberta..

When are we supposed to get the link after we are done submitting the application? Also what is the procedure with the video essay?viz.. do we have to answer a predetermined question and then upload like in Sauder or is it somewhat different? Any information regarding this would be of great help.

Regards,
Dominic.

My order would be:
SFU > Molson > Telfer > Haskayne > Ryerson.
The credibility of Haskayne is definitely worthy to consider, and so better than Ryerson.

Finances shouldn't be your biggest worry as you could try for scholarships, and of course a loan from Prodigy Finance.

I haven't yet begun it yet Manoj. Will start this weekend. The wait has made loose a little interest. :/
It was my first choice, and now I don't even know if I'd go there if I get Schulich or McGill.

We'll get the link only if our profiles clear the preliminary assessment. :roll: Mine is currently under assessment with Chris Lynch. So, let's wait and see. :)

VijayG6387 Hi, I already got an admit from Alberta. I have mentioned it in the earlier pages. But I'm yet to decide whether to take the offer. Waiting for Singapore college reply. All the best for your Alberta MBA application.
