Congrats to Admits...

Can someone please highlight on Funding Options ?
Banks from India need a co-signer and collateral in many cases. So its difficult to arrange the funds in such situations.
Prodigy said they don't have anymore tie up with IE.

Thanks,
Tushar

Please check with Avanse Financial Services. I heard that they may give an education loan without collateral.

Hi everyone,

I got admission to IE Dual degree Jan 2019 intake and since I couldn't find any Dual degree group, I would also be hanging around in this group :). My dual master is in Real Estate development. Since the initial 6 months are going to be same for IMBA hoping to catch up with some of you here.

talimontana Thanks for creating the thread. See you in Jan

Hello those of you have applied to IE this year, can you throw some light on the essay topic.
I am really confused about what to write. The prompt is " most important thing which you have not mentioned in the application or resume".
This is very vague and i am confused as to what to write. Can i talk about my post MBA goals or why an MBA ? About how you are different or what you can contribute to IE.
Or does it has to be something more specific or personal trait? What have you guys talked about?
Any help is very much appreciated.

Thanks

This is very similar to HBS on "what else would you like us to know" except shaved off a few words to make it under 650; I would find HBS samples to help guide you. It can be about goals but only if you have a unique narrative that separates you in achieving them; I think it is best to tell a story the showcases your brand, what you are known for, if you have done a good job at introspection, this is something that is true for you in every setting personal and professional. Research guidance for the HBS main essay.

Do not talk about work achievements. Do not make it professional; that is boring, that should be covered in your CV and recs. Help them get to know you on a personal level; open your heart, share your values, share who you are, who your closest friends know you to be.

Guys, I am thinking to apply for TECHMBA or International MBA through IEGAT. However, I can't find some solid reviews about placements that why I am a little skeptical.
I am looking for a 1 yr MBA so that's why finalize IE and I am not very keen to work in Spain.
Can anyone please share reviews/links?
