Congrats.. From the previous year's threads,
the application forwarded to the FGSR almost always means an admit!

Mind sharing your profile? Also, how was the interview?

Profile:
B.E Mechanical from India: 62%
GMAT: 630 (Q49, V27)
WE: 4+ years in business and financial research (procurement, supply chanin and energy focus)

The skype interview was a fairly informal discussion with Chris Lynch, where he was just trying to understand if i would be the right fit for UofA MBA. Regular questions such as take me through your profile (education, work ex, and hobbies), why an MBA, Why UofA MBA, what is unique about you and some behavioral questions. It was more of a discussion than an interview

I am planning on applying for a fully time MBA program 2018 intake at this Canada BS. I am currently an Indian passport holder and going to apply as an international student. But I am also planning on applying for Canada Permanent Residency and hopeful of receiving it in 2018. Can somebody confirm if I initially apply as an international student and later on my status changes to PR holder just before the course starts or during the course, will I have to pay all fee applicable to international students or fee will also change as per the status change before or during program ?

Hi Mohit,

You can check by logging on to your beartracks account if there are any outstanding items on the to do list. And for the IELTS scores and transcripts you just need to submit the scanned copies as of now.

Hope this helps : :-)
