Hi,

I am electronic engineer from BITS, Pilani with 3 years and 4 mnoths full time work ex in the semiconductor industry by aug 2008.
My GMAT score is 710
I received a schol of 10000 euros from HEC and NUS has not yet informed regarding any schols.
Does any one have any idea as to how the schols in NUS are allocated and do we have to apply for them seperately?

Hi Priyanka,

Welcome to NUS . Well I am surely planning to join. So we will be classmates if you plan to join as well. If you are having difficulty in deciding, you can refer to the link "Why NUS?" in my signature.

Regarding your query about schols. All applicants are automatically considered for a merit based scholarship. There are some scholarships for which you have to apply separately. However, other than ADB-Japan scholarship, other do not apply for Indians.

@Others: Please do not post generic queries on this thread. For queries use the following thread:

Thanks,
Abhishek.

Thanks Abhishek,

I guess you have already paid your acceptance to NUS.
I however, have an interview comnig for queens, Canada next week and I have to accept NUS by Jan 30th.
So I am a littler unsure of paying up before I get the results from Queens.
Do you have any clue regarding Queens in comparison to NUS except for the rankings.

Hey Priya,

I do not know enough about HEC Paris to compare between the two. But I can tell you about NUS. I am pasting the link to my Why NUS? post below.

Why NUS?

Then maybe you can find the corresponding fact about HEC Paris and then decide based on your priority and better fit between the two. Each of the points made in the above post are based on the following questions. I have given you to the answer for NUS. You give the answer for HEC Paris.

1. Most important: Does the courses offered suit YOUR profile and fit in YOUR long term career plans?
2. Global Reputation
3. Quality of students who get an admit
4. Diversity of students
5. Faculty and methodology of teaching
6. Business importance of Location
7. Duration of course
8. What kind of financial burden will you need to take and ROI.
9. How much flexibility does the course allow? Can you pursue it in a way you like?
10. What schools do the students go for an exchange? Is the cost included in the fees?
11. What course material gets used for teaching?
12. How good is the infrastructure?
13. What about student VISA and work permit issues?
14. Not only where all you have a chance for employment Post-MBA but all what kind of profile get offered?
15. How recognized is the degree in case you want to come back to India?
16. Will you face any cultural issue while pursing you MBA there?

The above questions are which I asked myself while deciding on NUS. There might be many others as per your priorities and goals. This is once in a lifetime decision and you should not regret later. So you have to be absolutely convinced that it is the right choice for you. I do not really think anyone else can answer the question "Is school A better or B better?". You have to research and find facts which interest you.

Whichever school you decide on will be the right decision. All the best.

Thanks,
Abhishek.

Hey folks,

I have finally decided to take the HEC-Paris MBA program over the NUS MBA program.

You can find my NUS interview experience in the following link:
http://www.pagalguy.com/forum/intern...tml#post902068 (Anyone for NUS Singapore?)

If you have any questions regarding the NUS MBA or the HEC MBA program feel free to contact me. In my opinion, abhishek is doing a fantastic job answering the NUS related questions.

Good luck and Good night

Cheers,
Roshith

Hey priyanka,

Congrats on your admit!! HEC I feel much better if you are looking for brand name! If you are looking for asian focus, NUS is good..

Btw, When did you submit your NUS form? When was your interview? When did you get admit???

Could you please share your interview experience please...

thanks!
