Is anyone planning to stay a few days before or after KEW to look at places to live in Bloomington?

I will probably spend an extra day on the front or back of the trip to scope things out.

Hey WaterFront...hear anything yet from Stern?

I applied right before the deadline, but no interview invite. Thought I was a good candidate, but perhaps not :-/

All is quiet on the Stern front. I'm in the same boat as you.

That is my plan. I have been looking at the some of the sites linked to from the admitted students site. When I was at IU in my previous life, I stayed at Fountain Park apartments (which is one of the ones listed on the site), but I see that they don't seem to allow dogs :evil: , so I guess I will have to find a big-dog friendly place.

That is certainly a possibility, but part of the issue i'm running into is timing. I'm selling my house and am looking to move late April (or at the latest May 1st), so for timing purposes, probably the larger apartment complexes with many units will likely have more options in terms of move in dates (versus houses which i'm assuming will be more likely coming available mid to late summer).

Cheers,
Tom

I'm still undecided :oops: I'm one of those that had a good "story" for the essays, but i'm keeping my options open. I might very well choose CMA, and if I had to choose today would do that.

Me too! Glad to see Kelley has been moved to green font :lol:

I hear that there are CMA presentations the day before Experience Wknd. I think I'm going to try and check them out.

I'm thinking about the Entrepreneurial Mgmt. Academy (but more for Corporate Innovation). I've also been considering the Life Sciences focus.

That was my "story" for my essays/application as well (EMA + Plus Life Sciences) :-D I think I probably mentioned Eli Lilly 7 times during my essays. I didn't think the "I'll see what I really want to do during my MBA studies" would fly over very well.
