Hey Guys,

New thread master here.... For the admitted applicants, are any of you going to the Welcome Event on the 21st?

Also, for the remaining applicants, I'd be more than happy to take general questions on admissions.

Re: Anderson FEMBA 2012 - Calling All Applicants [#permalink] New post   14 Jan 2012, 01:30
I am deciding whether to do the 2 weekday classes or the 2 Saturday classes. I work in OC and my work schedule is flexible enough that I'd be able to leave at 2 and beat traffic if I do the weekday classes. This is appealing to me because then I don't have to spend an entire Saturday at school.

However, I think the majority of OC commuters will be taking the 2 Saturday classes and I would like to get to know the people who are in my area better. Any OC ppl planning on doing the weekday classes?

Can anyone please give me their take on the pros/cons of weekday vs Saturday classes?

Campus is normally dead on Saturdays? Plus I didn't want to take an extra day a week for school. I wanted to keep my full weekend.

I just interviewed today, Super Saturday for FEMBA R2. My overall experience was positive - it was more of a casual conversation than a typical interview and I enjoyed it quite a bit. Unfortunately, I think I was nervous and didn't come across as well as I would have liked - we'll just have to see. Kudos to UCLA for an awesome open house last weekend, and a friendly atmosphere for Super Saturday. The more exposure I have to this program and to the people involved, the more I want to go!

Playing the waiting game till <= 3/23/2012 ...

I also found the super saturday to be a positive experience. I was paired with a current femba student that I'd say i clicked with pretty well. No strange questions... mostly why UCLA FEBMA, what have I accomplished in my career, what would I like to do next....

Not yet. I emailed them last week and they said it will take 6-8 weeks.

Hi folks! R2 applicant here. Looking forward to hearing all the "I'm ins" while keeping my fingers crossed myself!

I went to the Super Saturday interview day and was actually interviewed by an alum who had graduated a long while back. What a great experience. I have to say, UCLA has done a lot to really reach out and get to know applicants--pretty amazing.

Folks,

The wordings on my status today are a little different.
It says: "Your FEMBA application is currently being reviewed by the admissions committee and a decision will be released by the publish date for your round."

Previously, it used to state: "Your FEMBA application is complete and is being reviewed by our admissions committee."

Anyone else having this updated message in their online status??....
