Hello all - i received my admission confirmation today. I submitted by application early December. The admissions team took an additional couple of weeks to refer my case to career management center given my unique career aspirations.

To all the admitted candidates - i had a couple of queries.

First, from the date of email confirmation, how much time it usually when does the admissions package to arrive (I am based in India). I am curious to know the scholarship amount awarded - which would help firm up my decision quickly.

Second, can you kindly confirm whats the deposit amount to be paid to confirm our enrollment? I haven't tried to access the enrollment link yet.

Thanks in advance,

Hey Anand,

I had dropped them an e-mail requesting for the scholarship information to be e-mailed. They were extremely accommodating and I received it by 19th Jan. I guess you too can try the same.
The deposit amount is to be paid in 2 installments of 1500$(Feb 15 and April 15)

Dear Naidile,

Thanks for the response, cleared up a few queries. I will also reach out to them at earliest as the initial deposit deposit deadline is only a couple of weeks away.

I pre-interviewed with Simon in Dec. and they gave me a very good evaluation with 10~20k/per year if I apply for Simon. Then I squeezed time to submit my application before Jan. 5. But till now, I've received nothing. Don't know what it means.....anyway, I don't expect this interview any more.

Congrats to everyone that got an interview! Remember that one of the keys aspects of the interview is to evaluate how defined and clear are your goals, and how "easy" to place will you be.

Best of luck!

All were standard questions. I would say it's not a typical interview since it was blind pre-interview.

1. Talk about your past experence in 3 mins
2. The adcom will pick up some points from what you just said and ask for more details like why you chose this major in university...
3. Where did you learn Simon?
4. Will you look for jobs in the U.S. or your own country?
