Hi DD06, I have a similar score and post-MBA goal. What are the chances of a scholarship at Tepper with this score? And what other parameters are weighted in terms of securing a scholarship?

Hi Ronilsh, i dont think tepper prioritises GMAT that much, average Tepper GMAT is around 710, but id definitely recommend you to take another attempt and target a score around 720.

Hi there! Congratulations on your score. Based on my experience scholarship is a result of several factors - your score, your story, how you contributed in the the area of scholarship you are applying for. For instance I am a Forté fellow and my story was about contributing to the upliftment of women.

What kind of difficulties are you looking at? Discussing your MBA plan at work, etc? Or something else?

Some organizations wont allow employees to open mails from outside gmail Ids for security reasons , so sending recommendation from office mail will be difficult

for most of the Universities it is recommended to use official mail for recommendations. My recommender used his official mail and so can you

if that doesnt work then you can use personal mail also, wont be a problem but do clarify that to the Adcom

That’s a tricky one. using official email is recommended. Besides as far as I’ve seen on the official email they only get a link that redirects to the website that asks for the recommendation. Will that be difficult too?
