ISB: Admitted!

[vingmat]

Spidy,
Any scholarships offered by ISB? I got a 1.5 lakh waiver along with the admissions offer.

Also, heard at the PGP session in Bangalore that there are collateral free loans to cover the full expenses toward the ISB MBA...any ideas on this?
How to go about the loans scheme...i've quipped admissions on this.

See you soon yaar.

Regards,
vin.

Hi Vin,

<snip>
Can you elaborate on this? Did you opt for it or mentioned it somewhere during the application?

Can you elaborate on this? Scholarships are both on merit and means... so how did you went about writing the scholarship essay?

BTW rohit...congrats to you too

How you guys plan to finance your mba?

Congrats Vingmat and Rohit.
Interesting, that rohit has decided to join ISB irrespective of IIMA.
Can u specify reasons? Actually I was going through the article by coolavenues which talked abt the placements at ISB in 2002. Quite depressing article

Do write ur thoughts (Article is bit outdated, if you could help me out with something new.)
TIA

Guys, I made it to ISB, too...

I also got a 1 lac tuition waiver.

Congrats Rohit and Vingmat!

I had posted here early on during my ISB apping, and got some valuable views. Thanks a lot for the help...!

Any idea how many got a tuition waiver, and how much?

Congrats to everyone who got thru ISB !! Great going.

Infact I was really happy to see Vingmat thru. Esp since I had been following his app status on the forum since his GMAT score days

Heartening to know I have some "seniors" to advice me when I take the call to app for ISB

PS: Anyone with bad acads in undergrad thru to ISB ?
