Queen's 2013 - Calling all applicants

Question

Hello,

I have applied to R1, Queen's MBA class starting in 2013. Just wanted to know if anyone else has.

You forgot to add Queen's to your list of schools.

It's there, not visible here due to the settings I have chosen. Btw received an invitation for interview from Queen's.

nikhilsrl · Answer

I had my interview yesterday with Shai Dubey, the program director and one more person. It lasted for around 75 minutes. Initial plan was to use Adobe Connect but due to some connectivity issues telephonic interview was conducted.

First 45 minutes, I was asked questions mostly pertaining to how I do project and people management, my experiences, what I can contribute to the class, how do I manage difficult situations etc. The next 30 minutes, we discussed about some impending changes in curriculum in addition to me asking few questions.

The interview was conversational, though there were times when they asked supplementary questions. There were couple of instances when I had to ask them to repeat the question as the audio was not clear at times. Overall it was a good experience.

It went well. I got accepted with $$ and have decided to take it. I only applied to Queen's and Ivey but I applied to Queen's late August and Ivey early October. Queen's was my first choice and the scholarship was substantial that I accepted and cancelled my Ivey interview.

I am hoping to see you there!

It's difficult to say who will be the Queen of 2013. people are waiting for the answer of this question. Some people don not take so much interest in this questions. I have an offer for those who like to read about internet marketing. If you like to have read about internet marketing then you have a chance to read it from. It is a limited time offer and free for about 5 days.

Any help on the Financing part. I can only spend 36,340 CAD $ maximum from my end. Can the banks give me the remaining amount as loan.

nikhilsrl · Answer

Why dont you check with some of the banks in your country? I am from India and here there are some banks that provide education loans but the interest rate is very high.

pugilist · Answer

I am from India too, are there some Canadian Banks who can give loans upto that amount or some scholarships of that kind. BTW, how are you planning to fund your MBA.
