How many from the UK and what universities? Just wondering if they come from the 'Elite' Uni's from the UK.

Hey guys-

Further scrutinizing my financial aid package. What's the difference between a need-based and optional-based Grad PLUS Loans? They're not separated in the glossary and the interest rate appears the same. Googled around and can't find much either.


I had the same question actually. I might call Julie to find out first-hand if there is any difference. She is always very helpful in answering questions.

Well everyone, I'm going to make it official... I'm going with Kellogg.

I had a great time at the Chicago GSB weekend, but after thinking about it for a couple days, I'm going with my gut. And it's telling me Kellogg. I have no doubt that I could be happy at GSB, and do well there, etc., but for me, it really is boiling down to fit. It's not that the people weren't amazing, because they are - I think it had more to do with the culture - it's not a bad culture, it's just different than what I'm looking for.

It's going to tear me apart to turn down one of the best finance schools in the world, especially since that's what I'll be studying, but here's my take on it. I know that I would get a world-class education at GSB. I know that pretty much everyone would argue that, finance-wise, it's better than Kellogg. And that may be true. But if it's not the right place for me, and the place I can thrive in, then it's not the best education for me. Based on my past experiences, the BEST school you can go to is the one in which you feel a connection, in where you feel you can truly truly thrive - rankings be d*mned. Anyways, that's how I feel. Hard to explain, but there it is.

So... I'm really looking forward to the fall. Can't wait to be in classes with the clubbers!


You'll and all the other "corn flake" buddies will be just fine! :lol:
Remember, if you're in a top school just relax...

Rhyme is going to have a hard time with TNDC, as many people from Kellogg are going to be there :wink:

It was really nice to meet you. And YEAH go with you're guts.

Hey guys, for those of you who went through R1, would you say that chances become more slim for an acceptance as we get closer to the final decision deadline? I feel like a the longer I wait, the only thing waiting for me at the end is a WL...just wanted to see if you guys noticed the same. Thanks!!

My standard answer with this question is "As long as you haven't been dinged by Kellogg, you're still alive."

Given round 1- I think the single largest day of acceptances (and dings) was the final day (with another spike in the week leading up to winter holidays) - at least as reported on multiple boards. Sure - I would imagine that the majority of invites were given out by this time the last day hit - but there were plenty of invites going out in the last week to last day.

No certain answer, but just my observations.

Hi, I just received the admit call from Kellogg about an hour ago (1245 PDT)!!! :-D

I've been following this thread quite a bit and it seems like such a great group that have been admitted so far and I'm thrilled now to be a part of it! I was driving on the freeway when I received the call so it was kept pretty short and I didn't get the chance to ask her any questions, but she did mention I would be receiving a login for the admitted students website. Is all the information on deadlines, financial aid etc. available on that site or do they also mail out an admissions package?

Congrats to all the other admits so far and I look forward to seeing you at DAK in April!
