I believe its for both years, though some minimum GPA scores might need to be maintained.

so whats the next course of action guys?

spiceguy · Answer

Decision and deposit due date is January 15th post that there are couple of admitted student events to start networking... I am waiting for McCombs result but I most probably be joining GTech.. I was planning on TIGER but looks like there are a few new immersive programs starting this year so I will interact with admissions team to be on top of that... Plus, enjoy for few months :lol:

... Thanks...

adityapande · Answer

Same here waiting for McCombs and Johnson. But Scheller has given a good offer. What new immersion programs are starting? are they on the website?

Well anyways all the best for tomorrows mccombs result.

spiceguy · Answer

Details of new immersion programs are not yet on the website.. Its new experiential learning opportunity to work on projects for different companies. I think it will be tech and data analytic focused...

Hey congrats on the admit. I too have been admitted.

I also have admits from Olin, Carlson($), Maryland Smith ($$) and ISB. Can you guys help me out in making a decision? I'm leaning towards Gtech as they have given full GA.

Thank you for your help.

Regards,

spiceguy · Answer

I withdrew my Carlson application after full GA from GTech.. I felt that GTech's placement within 90 days, average Salary plus %jobs in consulting and tech all were better.. Plus Minneapolis weather - too cold.. Olin is better Ranked perhaps you can check based on your career goals... 
Good luck with the decision...

Thank you very much for this information. My goal is also to be in tech company (either consulting or product management). Olin or Gtech which do you think is better suited for me?

Regards.

spiceguy · Answer

I did not apply to Olin. Although it's better ranked and its job scene is pretty cool.. You can access employment report at https://www.olin.wustl.edu/docs/MBA/MBA- ... Report.pdf and see fit with career goals... For me in between full GA at GTech Vs no $ at Olin, I would take GTech but its personal decision.. I feel graduating without 100k $ loan is big deal, especially when post MBA salaries aren't much different. You should contact current students especially international students and get their perspective... https://gmatclub.com/static/posted_from.png Posted from GMAT ToolKit

Has anyone started researching living expenses/housing and found any hidden gems?
i.e rent for under 1K in a nice area with a commute of 20 mins or less from campus?
