Yay interview invite! But now I'm wondering if I can afford to attend the interview on campus. The plane tickets are $700 CAD...


Negligible in comparison to two year's tuition and foregone salary. Is driving an option?


Technically you could make +$50,000/annum during the MBA, through short-term work, which I've seen people do (purportedly; I'm not sure they're being truthful). But if this is true, then maybe you're not foregoing salary. Also, if your parents are paying for the MBA (or if you get a scholarship), then tuition is not really a burden to you directly.

Seriously doubt one's ability to work given the constraints of a full-time, competitive MBA program (student-led groups, travel, recruiting, coursework) Also, should your parents front the cost of the MBA, why not front the air fare needed to interview? Just a thought.

Agree.. Considering the hectic schedules of MBA students (few students have shared their daily scheduled on forum) doing part time work can be very challenging.

Would it be silly to hope they will sending more invites today and tomorrow? Were round 1 invites sent in a day or were they spread across a few days?

Congrats to all of us who got invited in wave2. I see on decision tracker that less people got invited than in wave 1, so those who are still waiting - dont loose hope just yet. maybe some more happy e-mails will follow.

All the best for the R2 interviews everyone. I am all set for Ross, and excited to see future classmates. I had posted my Ross interview experience before in this thread, so feel free to check that out. TL;DR - my interview with alum was very conversational. He made it very clear that he wanted it to be a conversation and was an all-out nice guy.

Happy to help anybody for interview prep :)
