Hey, thank you. Im able to join using the email with which i applied

does anyone have any suggestions for joining the teams? I never got to join it because it probably doesn’t like my undergrad .edu email, which i used to apply to mccombs with

Hey I am just wondering does getting GMAT waiver means they actually think i can make it or its just a way of getting application money... like getting gmat waiver.. does it even mean anything

Hey @Invoker8899 , basically getting a GMAT waiver from schools means they believe your academic and professional background is strong (sad part is it doesn’t guarantee admission) enough to evaluate your application without a test score. They’ll assess your profile holistically, so ensure your essays, recommendations, and work experience are awesome. It’s not just about app. fees colletion, they aim to reduce barriers for potential candidates!

Hi Guys. Has anyone negotiated with McCombs for the scholarship?

Hello jasmeetsingh0790 , It is common to negotiate scholarship if one has other competitive admits (with scholarship). However, there are no guarantees. One just needs to try and see. Good luck!
