Calling all Carroll (Boston College) MBA Applicants: 2023 intake

Same

havent accepted yet though

Why aren’t there more people on this thread? Is Carroll not a good enough school?

Basically the school is good only for finance.
If you have background in finance carroll is one of the best.. for anything else, not worthy at all.

I want to get into consulting

i do have a background in finance

What are the chances to get admitted from waitlist?

Hey 19MP and USunis20
Could you please share your profile with which you applied in R3

Gmat 660
Cfa level 3 passed
2.5 years work ex in finance, sustainability and renewable energy
BSc finance undergrad 3.21 gpa
3 years of NGO work with 1 ngo and a fundraiser for another ngo

work is at a US based MNC for 21 months and 6 months at an Indian start up

That's great. but what kind of consulting do you want to get into.
If it is financial consulting, then yes, BC is a good choice.

But if it is Management consulting or something else then it may be difficult from BC.
BC is very particular that internationals must look for employment not only in USA but everywhere.
Also, forget top 10-15 consulting companies. BC has a very strong relation with recruiters for their undergrad and so the professors are well connected and could get you a job. mind you a job.

What I realized from speaking with students and alum is that most of the students are those who want to settle in or around Boston.
Others basically have background in finance already and will get a STEM degree so can get into 'a job' post MBA.
Many companies do come to campus for recruitment, not for graduate students or MBAs but for undergrads.

So there you go that's all my assessment and my opinion. Even a basic search on LinkedIn with school name and MBA shows the same.

Hope that helps.

Either way Congratulation 19MP and USunis2023 on your admits.

anyone got their results for round 3 i.e the March 7th deadline?

I haven't received it yet - interviewed on 23rd March
The website says decision by 3rd May. Did they release it earlier for previous rounds?

I interviewed on March 16th. I was informed that it we would be informed about the admit within 3-5 weeks

BC gives results dot on the decision date

So you can estimate when you’ll hear from BC based on that date

Any student here who will be joining BC’s MBA program for sure? Please DM!

3rd May is a month away if they only give decisions on the date mentioned - that's a long waiting time
