Just finished my interview.
I believe it went well. The interview was with Paul and Lynn. Most of the questions were what you would expect Why Katz, Why an MBA, etc.

Hello,
Need an advice.
I got accepted to Georgia Terry College of Business with 100% tuition waiver. I wrote an email to Katz to provide an earlier decision so that I can make an informed decision.
Katz reverted with a request to provide the Acceptance letter and Merit Aid Letter(of Terry) to review the same and provide their decision. Kindly advise whether it's alright to send the letters to Katz?

Narenn · Answer

Interesting situation - Never heard any school asking to produce the decision letter of another school. Anyways, I think you currently are at the point of no return. If you don't submit the letter then they would think you were lying and if you provide the letter to them you have 50% chance of acceptance. One more point to consider: Although it is less likely, I would check if there is any clause/condition in the admission letter that prohibits you from showing the admission letter to any third party.

I can't see the recommendation questions on the Katz website. Anyone who has already sent the application could help with this? I want to select my recommender based on the questions.

Thanks!!

anilmroy · Answer

Basically Most recommendations ask you to upload a letter of recommendation(pdf or docx), rate the candidate on different characteristics and on how you know the candidate.
So the main thing you have to look is which recommender can describe (in the LOR) in depth about your achievements and skillsets in the time he/she knew you.

fundooplace · Answer

Are they also using the Common LOR of GMAC?

Hello,

I have just been interviewed. The interview lasted for a very short time. 16mins to be exact. Is this a red flag? ?
