Everyone is issued a tuck laptop to do your work on. IT will help you hook up your personal laptop to the wireless and things, but I never see anyone using one for school work.

Question for the wise: Can we get our own laptops or does Tuck have mandatory ones?

Just a heads up, for those that haven't looked into it yet you need to send through official transcripts within a month of enrollment. It's not mentioned on the to-do list though!

No, but lying on your application is grounds for immediate termination of an outstanding offer and expulsion from Tuck if already attending as per my understanding of the Honor Code.

- Current Student, not the official voice of the AdCom

Does Tuck conduct a background check?


Haven't read anything about it in any admit student material (welcome packet or website) - so I'm not sure.
Can any current student shed any light on this?

Jan admit here :D

By the way, does anyone have sticker shock? Cost of attendence is $93k per year!! As long one finds good employment afterwards, it shouldn't be an issue and the data does suggest that to be the case but still are any international students worried?

Can we just use one laptop for both school and personal use? Thinking of tossing my current laptop.

If any Tuck admit would like information to help them make a final decision, please feel free to reach out to me. I have been thinking about business school for months (and years) and would be happy to share my own thoughts and perspective and help in any way I can.

This is my first post ever on Gmatclub :)

I am a T'16 round 2 admit as well.
GMAT: 760
Current industry: public accounting/advisory
Current Location: Boston - Los Angeles - Boston
Post MBA interest: Consulting
Undergrad: Shanghai + Boston College 1 year master
Age: 26
Country: China, currently working in US
Community service: pro bono consulting, flag football, Zumba, college debate team, and etc. I am active but nothing spectacular.

Wondering anybody going to ASW from Boston would be interested in carpooling? Please give me a shout.

Fellow applicants,

I would like you to know that we have a new forum for MBA debriefs where admitted members can share their admission experience.

I request the admitted students to spare some time and post their admission experience in the forum and help the other applicants. Applicants could discuss with the admitted students to learn from their experiences.

Here is the forum link: https://gmatclub.com/forum/share-your-application-experience-332/

Cheers,

Very excited to be a January admit.
At what point can i expect to hear about potential scholarship $? There was no mention of it in my official offer letter.

It should have been communicated during the admit call or in your official snail mail letter. If it doesn't mention anything then unfortunately it means you have not received any scholarship $s.
