I have asked them to share the same over email so that I can make a faster decision. Hopefully they should accommodate...else we will have to wait for the packet. Apart from few lucky students who got scholarship details same day... most students received these details in the admissions packet.

Hi,
This is a little urgent. If anyone could be kind enough to provide an email of SIMON admissions director or some decision maker, dealing with the students admission, it would be great.

Emailing [email protected] is just like talking to a wall as the recipient is a guest relations manager.

kindly let me know if there is any contact you may have. Its very urgent.

Thank you

Hi,

Is there anybody, who has been put on Waitlist by Simon Business School ?

Would you be kind enough to give us an update of your status?
Like still on waitlist, or called for interview after waitlist or even regret note.

It would be really helpful for all others sailing in the same boat.

Thanks!

If you mean Management consulting then no.. it is not. It is one of the toughest transitions to make and it happens rarely for students (unless you are in a top 10 school ). Simon is good for tech consulting roles
