Know its early, but if any applicants can just post whether they received an invite yet for R1. Will be appreciated. Just to get better understanding of what the admissions time process is.

Thank you in advance.

I'm guessing that the admissions process will most likely be delayed due to the storm. Many of the Boston schools are extending their deadlines, or at least offering flexibility for those affected by Sandy. I know that BU undergrad has announced an extension to the priority admission deadline, but I haven't heard anything from the grad school of mgmt.

Hi Guys
Need ur opinions on choice of school

I am undecided on whether to apply for Illinois MBA at UIUC and BU
In my research , I feel that the career statistics , rankings and overall features of both colleges are at par.

Which one will be more suitable for internationals esp with a techie background? Is Boston better to live than Illinois as I heard from some friends?

Will really appreciate if some one can give thier advice

Regards
Aditya

A friend who applied for the part time program received an email of admission today (12/6/12), decisions were supposed to be released (12/14/12). Wondering if anyone on the full time has heard anything...

Guys hows this school for placements? I know the scenario is not on campus but is it difficult to get a job post mba for internationals. I m interested in entrepreneurship and will be looking for new startups. But as a backup plan need to be sure of the employment opportunities for internationals.

Can the admitted applicant expand on the scholarship info? I received an email of admission that said full package information will be mailed. If I received scholarship, would I see it in this email or do I have to wait for the official documents?

Hi sifenat,

I received an email with my acceptance and scholarship package two days ago.

According to the forums of past years, some people did not receive scholarship information in their email only in the acceptance packet.

Hi guys,
I've been admitted to the IMBA program (May 2013). Received the package today. Anyone else in the same boat?

Who all have submitted their applications in round 2?

@ all the round 1 applicants -- how many days after the deadline did you get your interview invites?
