Hi everyone,
My company agreed to pay for my mba (yay!) if I go to a part-time program (I applied to Booth, Haas, Anderson), but I also decided to apply to a few full-time programs just in case (GSB, Columbia, Sloan and Tuck). I applied January round for all the schools, but shortly after I submitted my application to Booth's Part-Time program, I heard back, they set up an interview immediately and 4 days later I got the acceptance!
I am thrilled because I love Booth, the fit is great and my company would pay for it...but I won't hear about the other schools until end of March/early April. Booth asked me to respond to the acceptance by Feb 23rd (10 days after they told me), but they said that if I need an extension they will give it to me. Is it alright to ask to extend the date until early April? I loved Booth and really think it would be a great fit, but I want to make an informed decision about this major life choice. Does anyone have any advice for going about this?
Please help!
