I don't know but maybe double check your application is marked as complete in your account. They were waiting mistakingly waiting for official transcripts from me for weeks before they forwarded my application to the admissions commitee.

Just had my interview yesterday with member of admissions team. Questions:

- Walk me through your resume
- Short / Long term goals
- If short term goals don't work out, what are your alternate plans
- Tell me about how you manage time?
- What does your typical work day look like?
- How do you spend your time outside of work?

Just got an admit from Boston College. Surprisingly, the admit letter had this text:

Before committing to Boston College, please be aware that current economic conditions and government regulations in the U.S. are challenging for all international graduate students, whether graduating from Boston College or another institution. We expect that international students will seek employment in the countries where they have legal authorization to work on a long-term basis. For more information on Career Development resources and to read a memo to international students on the U.S. job market, please visit the Career Development website.

Hi,

i have received an admit from BC CSOM, with 10K scholarship each year. I also have an admit from UC Davis, with 9K scholarship each year.

My focus is on consulting and entrepreneurship.

Which is a better option from these for me? Why?

Please advise.

Thanks.

I'm looking out for a group too - whatsapp or FB, anything. Can't seem to find anything on FB yet.
