Hi everyone, I am applying for CBS R1 deadline. I noticed that CBS has a Financing your MBA section in which they are asking for details on our plans to finance MBA through student loans, family, self. I was curious whether there is any best practice for this and how does CBS assess this section, if at all? Any advice would be much appreciated.
