LetsGoMets, Congrats on Emory and CMU! Tepper seems to be stronger for Finance/IB hopefuls. If you don't mind, could you post your profile.

I'm not going to turn this into the Kellogg board (where everyone seems to ask what's your profile). Please see this link https://gmatclub.com/forum/2010-profiles-w-admit-dings-results-no-discussion-78475-60.html#p654223 for my profile

I forgot to write it in my last post, congrats MBAGirl!

I just found out today I got waitlisted at Emory...Can anyone tell me what is the admissions Yield at Emory? The most recent stats would be nice.. My GMAT is 610, and that's what really hurt me in my admissions, however I believe I had a strong interview. Does anyone have an idea whether I have a chance be enrolled?

GMAT 610 (Q44 V30) AWA 6.0

I actually think this is going to be the toughest year for admissions. If the stock/job market tanks, expect apps to pick up again, but my guess is that next year will be a little easier.

I think what was meant about asking for feedback is "why don't you call the admissions board/contact your interviewer and ask them for some feedback", not ask this message board for feedback. None of us have seen your application.

Thank you for the support, guys!
After the Evening program admission, I just found out I was accepted to the 1yr program as well with $$ (evening program scholarships are not announced till April). I am still waiting to decide, but I'll likely be at the Welcome Weekend Friday / Sat . PM me if you're going as well.

As promised, I'll give you a recap. I just got back to the hotel after the last of many activities. For those who couldn't make it, I'm sorry. You missed out on a very good time. For those of you here who did attend, I'm sure we probably met and didn't know it.

My big takeaway of the weekend is not something you'd see on a webcast. It's these three things:

1) Faculty, staff and students all care about you as a person. This is the friendliest network of people you'll ever meet. It's social, it's fun, everyone has a great time, although they work hard too. It's definitely a very personal place, you're not a number, and you will be known.

2) They stressed how great and strong the alumni network is. The idea is that since they're a smaller program, their alums care more. It's a family that you look out for. People are responsive when you send them an email as a student and they do what they can to help out. Obviously, you're expected to do likewise when you're an alum.

3) You develop as a leader. Expect to be placed in situations that you're not used to, and stretched to become comfortable in roles that you otherwise wouldn't be comfortable in right now. You develop strong interpersonal skills and become a better people person.

So those were my big takeaways. As a whole, I was very impressed with the program.

Don't ask me for a decision where I'm going.... I don't know yet.

If I do wind up at Emory, I'll live at Post Briarcliff. It's not too far, pretty affordable, and the apartments are nice.

Lots of current students addressed this at welcome weekend. Between the law, med, and b-schools, there's a huge grad-student community at Post Briarcliff. They mentioned a few other places too, but I wasn't really paying much attention at that point.

I suppose you could find someone to carpool with, but yes, you'd need a car.
