Great work Chethan! I was going to start a separate thread for admitted students, but FB works just as good I guess.
I have been trying to pay the deposit, but the payment server seems to be under maintenance. Are you guys planning on staying on-campus? Any idea of the cost of housing and what all it includes?

Iam located in Germany! Was hoping to get at least a little :-(
Is it possible to apply for aid in the hindsight?? I will contact the adcom and see..
I am not sure if I will attend without aid, I also got an offer from Boston University..

Hmmm... I guess Adcoms work in, what seems to us as, mysterious ways!
You don't need to apply for aid, all applications are considered for scholarship. I don't think you can negotiate a scholarship from Babson, even though I do know of someone who did so with another university.
As for BU, though the choice is totally yours but as I see it BU and Babson have very different outlooks, and I chose Babson purely based on fit! Obviously the aid made the decision much easier. I'd suggest go for the school who's culture, ideology and uniqueness is in line with your profile and goals. Whether that's Babson or BU, let the aid be secondary. Again, thats just my point of view :)

Hello congrats to everyone. Thanks GOD I also received acceptance for the 1 year MBA program starting this May. I wonder If you have received the package with all the info. I already made the payment. Somebody asked how much the it was. It is 1000 usd. I am attending to the 29 February event. See you there. Any question about the admissions or whatever let me know. I would try to help you as much as I can.

I got admitted, just waiting for my packet to arrive! When I logged onto the portal, it noted my scholarship and that I have a FAFSA loan for the max. Babson's loan directions are not the best, so I'd call the Financial Aid Office if you have any questions. I submitted my FAFSA info, and the website also says to go through the College Board's site (which I thought was just for undergrad), but when I submitted all of my stuff to IDOC/College Board, I received a letter saying that I was not recognized in the system. Once I accept Babson, I'm going to talk to the Financial Aid Office to figure out what I need to do...
