waitlisted without interview :( :( now that is second for this season :(

What you could do (and this worked for me at Cornell), is write an essay outlining why you'd enjoy Williamsburg and the Mason experience. It just shows an extra level of attention. Again this is just advice and may or may not work for you.

Thanks a lot for the suggestion. I will surely do that.

Hi,

Has anyone spoken with a currently enrolled student/alumnus? How is he/she finding the school? How has the school helped him/her reach his/her goals? What are the current avg. salary packages and the % of students getting a job within 3 months of graduating? Can someone share the current stats of the school?

Thanks!

Hi supi,

I have asked the admisison guys to get me in touch with a couple of current students and they said it will take 2 weeks. I will let u know once i get any more update. No offence but you should not be asking basic questions like current avg salary packages and the % of students getting a job within 3 months of graduation. These type of answers you can get in this forum with just a 5 minute search. I know the answers to these questions but I want you to find out.
Anyways, u scored 590 and r u done with the Mason Interview? Admitted? interviewed?

Hi vaggar4, Were you able to get in touch with a current student ?

I got an admit with scholarship. I received $18k for the first year and $18k spread as scholarship, graduate assistant stipend and out of state fee waiver(if I get a GA) for the second the year. Does anyone know about the feasibility of getting GA in the 2nd year at mason.

I am an international Indian student. Is it advisable to join mason considering the williamsburg location and tough job market for internationals.

Congrats firstly. I don't quite get your point about the 2nd year GA, sounds like you've already got it offered.

Jobs are what you make it, not everyone will get an H1B but I do know of three alums who have gone on to get visas from Blackrock and a couple of consulting firms.

Thank you !!

It was mentioned that GA is assigned based on match between faculty and administrative needs. That is why I asked about the feasibility of getting a GA assigned.

Since a GA offer is made in my admission letter, I believe I can be sure of getting a GA assigned. Correct me if I am wrong.

I'd check with the admission's team just for clarification on that.
