Hello, Didn't see a thread for Babson Fall 11 and so creating one. Well I just got into Babson Fall '11 with some scholarship. As an entrepreneur, it was among my top choices. So am pleased. So start the discussion people! I also request others familiar with the program to give in their inputs. My brief profile - M/ Indian/ 24/ Entrepreneur

I received my email last week (March 2), and it said that my decision would be posted the following day (March 3) at 1pm. As I said, I got the semi-personal email because they were hosting an event for admitted students and they wanted to give those admitted on that day the chance to plan on attending (I'm not attending since I don't live in the Boston area).

Hi folks,

New to forum... how many ppl admitted to Babson are enrolling or leaning towards Babson? If admitted to Babson but not enrolling, can you share which school you've chosen and your reasoning? Thanks!

I hope they will tomorrow.

Just to make sure..
Are you logging in the "Apply now" portal or the "My Babson" portal?
My Babson has the decision...
If it doesnt work, call up the AdComm...

Just one question.

If accepted, do they send any decision mail or just post on the portal?

I haven't received any mail nor any post for 2nd round.

For those interested in the Babson entrepreneurship philosophy, our President Len Schlesinger's book "Action Trumps Everything" is available for FREE download from www.actiontrumpseverything.com

This book is an excellent insight into the entrepreneurship process and how CreAction (a funny word that talks about acting smartly and not just over-analyzing) is a key quality in entrepreneurial successes. Len also debunks some myths about entrepreneurs (namely, that they are high risk takers, self-confident, determined etc.) and shows how entrepreneurs are just like any other person, except that they have a strong desire backed by action.

The book is worth spending some time and getting some good lessons from it.

Slightly off-topic but I think the late, great Martin Lukes and his friend Lucy Kellaway, financial times contributors and real inspirations for any aspiring b-school student, would really like this word.
