Hey Subhash,

can you talk about the student clubs at Krannert? and please comment on your experience with which ones you are associated?

Hiya

There are many clubs at Krannert, and they provide superb academic + fun experiences to the students. There are many clubs here, e.g. Operations Club, Consulting Club (which expands throughout Purdue University), Hispanic Club, Net Impact, BYte Club (Business Entrepreneurship and Technology Club), Finance Club, Marketing Club, Asian Business Club etc.

I'm a member of the first five clubs, and I must say that the clubs help you in learning more about business and diversity, and they also provide you with great career opportunities. For example, a few days back, a case competition was organized among various clubs to provide more exposure to current 1st year students with case analysis. Also, the clubs organize business speaker events, community service events and business trips to cities and companies to promote business exposure and networking opportunities, and if you want to enhance your team skills or leadership abilities, clubs are one of the best forums to do so.

Hey Subhash,

Thanks for your welcoming support here at gmatclub.

Can you verify whether we are supposed to mail the transcripts as a part of application?

I am surprised to see this as all other universities ask for official transcripts only after you get an admit

Cheers!!

When I applied, I think I uploaded/mailed the scanned copy of my Official Transcript, and we had to show them the same when we came here after admission. I believe you can also do the same, however, the best course of action would be to mail admissions committee and ask them what is the best/correct thing to do.

Admitted !! no info on scholarship !!

WaitListed for 2013 .. any advice guys ?

Has anyone who applied during the Priority Round (Round 2) gotten interview invites yet?

I received an invite last Thursday.

Yay! Got an interview invite today.

Got invited for a second interview. Weird, seeing as how most schools just do one.

guys about the TOEFL score.. is it required ?

Got an email this morning saying I am accepted! Yay! Now waiting for the scholarship info. Does anyone know how long it'll take to get that info?

Congrats! I received mine the day after my admit.

Thanks! Did you get the fellowship info in a separate mailed letter in a welcome packet, or in another e-mail, or was it stated in the official admissions email letter from the dean? I got the first admit email a week and a half ago, and the official one from the dean on Wednesday, but no info on fellowship/scholarship.

I received mine via email the day after I received my admission decision.
