Received decision from interviewer in an email. Admitted. No word on scholarship though. Was scholarship information part of the email itself?

Did you apply for round 2? Can you pl share your interview experience?

Hi yeah my application was considered in round 2 since my transcripts reached a bit delayed.

I was interviewed by one my Mr Albert Turner. Went on for a solid hour and fifteen minutes.

Outside the generic why MBA why Rutgers, there were a lot of questions from the essay on ethical dilemma. I was asked to explain in detail about the situation.

And he picked questions from the answers I gave. Asked a lot of questions about my profile. My work experience. My other activities.

There were questions on type of leadership, being a team player,
Specific questions on ways to handle team dynamics.

I'd recommend a thorough research on the school and relate it to your answers.

Regards

This is the response I got:

Quote:

Thank you for your application to the Traditional Full-Time MBA Intl program at the Rutgers Business School for the Fall 2017 term.

The Admissions Committee has carefully reviewed your application and noted that your score on the Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT) or Graduate Record Examination (GRE) was not within the profile of our currently enrolled students and we recommend that you retake either exam to strengthen your application file. We will keep your application on file for one year. If you decide to retake the exam, please reach out to our admission staff after you have done so and we would be more than happy to re-consider your file for the term you applied for; or another term.

We appreciate your interest in the Rutgers Business School and look forward to hearing from you. Whatever your decision, you have our very best in all your future educational and professional endeavors.

I applied to Rutgers with a GRE score of 316. Anyone with a similar experience? What happened afterwards?

Was one of your sections much worse than the other? 316 does not seem bad. You should call them to confirm that they received the correct score. Also make sure you didn't put your GRE score for the Gmat as 316 is very low Gmat.

Thanks! I reached out to them and it looks like they haven't received my latest GRE score report (I reported it to the wrong department). They were using an older score that I reported correctly and were basing their decision on that. I'm happy they reached out, I expect I'd be straight up dinged at other schools.

Admitted with Dean's scholarship but still contemplating whether USA is a good choice at this point of time or not for an international student because of so many uncertainties and H1B issues.Any inputs on this specially from people who are accepting this admit ?

Hello Everyone,

I need your help. I was wondering if you have any pointers for the MBA Full-time interview process at Rutgers. How did you prepare? What were the questions that they ask? When did you receive their decision?

Thanks.

Hi all,

I wanted to ask if Rutgers grants scholorships to international students at all? I wanted to know this after talking to couple of students who have given the information that international students do not get scholorships here. But I see a bit of discussion around scholorships in the thread hence posting my doubts.

Thank you...
