Hello folks,

Anyone here considering the 1-YR IBEAR MBA Program at USC Marshall?

It looks like a great accellerated program, especially for those with an established career.
I didn't look at it because I am doing a career switch. I also am looking to build a much stronger network and a deeper collegiate experience. The two-year program gives me the opportunity I am looking for.

Hii I have got a mail from USC stating that my official transcripts are missing. I had earlier mailed the admissions and I got a reply that even if I do not submit the transcript , it would be fine for the time being. Anyone else heard the same?

No. I didn't mail the official transcripts either. Do they need physical transcripts before sending interview invites?

Yes they do need it. The representative said that the interview invites are just a matter of time. But transcripts are needed if you want a decision. So send them across

If you check the last year's page, you'll find that most American applicants got an interview invite on 12-13th November. Indian applicants/foreign applicants go interview invites around 23rd November. No need to panic!

The diversity event was great! USC is really stepping up their game in recruiting talented students. If you have not contacted admissions or visited campus I highly recommend it. Also, take advantage of any current students that you may be able to contact. USC touts its "Trojan Network" as one of its biggest assets. So far everyone I have reached out to was more than willing to answer questions and help out.
I'll try to add more details and a summary to the event link below.

Linking to this thread

USC is hosting its annual Diversity Weekend on Nov. 11-12, 2016.
These events are a great way to hear about the school's focus on diversity and inclusion. I made quite a few connections at these events last year. I am still in contact with many of them on GroupMe and WhatsApp. I always have a place to stay or someone to grab a drink if I visit the schools my peers were accepted to.
Be sure to check out my blog post about the format and what the experience brings. I am excited for the Trojan diversity experience. LA is not a bad place to visit for the weekend :-)

Anyone signed up already?
