Dear greenoak, prashok and all others who have received the admit to Oxford. firstly congrats. I can understand how releived you all are feeling. three cheers for GMAT CLUB. i hope we will have a grand party at Said before joining.
I wanted to know has anyone of us received a scholarship as well? Or was the communication only regarding admission decision? With loans drying up this year funding will be the next big challenge. how do you people intend to do it. I am planning a robbery
anyway on a serious note I just wanted to check whether the mail you received fro Oxford exactly as follows or it was different. Mine was as follows:
