Congrats on ND and Boston. Would you mind sharing your stats? Any money coming from either?
Thanks, and sure. My numbers aren't superb, but I feel as though they are fairly competitive. My GPA is a 3.446 and I got a 580 on the GMAT.
I'm pretty confident that my resume and personal statements helped me out quite a bit for each program. I've had two internships, am VP of my school's BAP chapter, and have volunteered abroad. I feel as though the programs I applied to were looking for well rounded individuals with strong work ethics and leadership skills.
I didn't have an interview with BC, but I feel as though the interview for ND was focused on whether or not a candidate can hold a compelling conversation in a professional manner.
I got a partial scholarship for $3k at ND, but I was told if I take the GMAT and score higher, there is an opportunity for more money. I didn't receive a scholarship from BC, but I'm currently trying to change that (basically by explaining how I received a partial scholarship from ND).
