Admitted to Oxford

[john_almighty]

you just need to mention a college.... the college has no purpose except just providing you a place to stay.....only undergrad study in college...postgrads all study in dept. like SBS ppl will study in the B School....choose colleges nearby to it like.....christ church, pembroke, university coll, lincoln, magdelen....just choose one... they will assign you some college...not to be worried about


best part of oxford is you get placed within 2 months of coming here.... i am doing my MSc in cs and already got offer from Barclays capital investment bank, bnp paribas ad jp morgan....i have been here for just 2 months......though i will be working in tech sector of the banks.....SBS has its own career service dedicated for the b school ppl


cheers

Hi Hanu

Ur application form is completely online, so no issues with that.
i sent the Hard copy of the following docs ...
1. Reco letters
2. Financial Affidavit
3. Transcripts
4. Photographs
5. Resume

With these docs and my application form and recommenders form filled online my application was considered complete.

Hope this helps.

Cheers
Dheerin

For the IEFC loans check out http://www.iefc.com/

As for the HSBC thingy, the basic funda is that if you approach them independently the loan will be sanctioned/refused based on your current state,i.e your current income and the income/credit of your cosignor. The cosignor should ideally be a paerson setlled in the US/UK.

By cosignor it means a person who guarentees to pay back your loan in the case you defualt on your repayments.
