Hi,

Did anybody who got in hear back regarding money?

they notified me of a merit award during the call, but it is not all that substantial. There is nothing in my portal update related to the financial offer.

Hi,

Did anybody who got in hear back regarding money?

The admin officer who called me to tell me I got accepted told me how much the merit scholarship I got is. Then about 20 min after phone call she sent an email saying congrats, some basic info, and restating the scholarship amount. And now today I got an email from Goizueta saying I have been awarded a merit based scholarship and an admin officer will be in contact to tell me how much but it seemed like a generic server email and so they didn't realize that the admin officer already sent me the details yesterday.

Heyy guys, anyone know how soon we hear about the Consortium? Do we have to wait till their official announcement date? Or will Emory notify us earlier?

I guess they gave application fee waivers to boost application volume

Because you were rejected or wait listed? Maybe you just were not a good fit

Fair enough. Cos I have gotten interview invites from some Top 5. I guess I wouldn't have been able to achieve my goal there. Life goes on to bigger things...

Oh the arrogance. Just reading your profile, it seems you’ve been at this for a few years. Sorry it didn’t pan out how you wanted, but I think you understand schools look at candidates holistically. A stellar GMAT score, average GPA, and terrible extra curricular activities and attitude can get you rejected at a number of places. In Goizueta’s case, the fact that you graduated in 2010, so you’re probably between 31-34, would have played a factor and you should have applied for the EMBA. Just my thoughts.

Wow. You've already extrapolated my extracurricular and attitude. Won't deny I have things to work on, but isn't it a bit far to assume that I have a terrible attitude?
