hi randompasserby,

i am an applicant from india and many indians would know, most of the indian universities don't issue "official" transcripts multiple times. in the past what i have done is, make photocopies of the "official" transcripts and have the photocopies notarized by a public notary.

will that be sufficient for MIT?

-su


Yes, I was in the same situation and that's what I did (and was admitted).. However, they will need to verify these notarized copies before matriculation.

Good Luck !!

Nope. I also haven't yet received my MBA Admit website logon details. I presume that the office has been hit by the snowstorms...

That should be in the admit letter on the app website.

Alas, all that my admit letter says is that my username and password will be sent to me within two working days.

Has anybody actually gotten a student "welcome" call?

Hey, has anyone from Sloan called you yet about the acceptance?

I emailed the admissions office about the scholarship timeline. The response was "If you are a scholarship or fellowship recipient you will be notified by the end of February".

Just verify, does this depend on whether you have or have not accepted Sloan's acceptance offer? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm assuming not since accepted applicants need to compare offers amongst schools?

I have a humanities background (in undergrad) but I have also completed the CFA examinations. I'm a little surprised at being asked to take the Economics course as I feel the CFA covers many economics concepts. Is anyone else in similar shoes?

You should probably send an email to admissions asking them to waive this requirement. I personally think that CFA exams already cover what you will learn in a micro-econ class.

Don't bite your nails.

Word on the street is, they will be coming early to mid March. That's later than most other schools' R2 invities. Two friends waiting for replies have independently told me this.
