Hi Puys,

I am starting this thread to streamline all discussions about Stanford University for 2012 - 2014 aspirants.

Hi Friends,

I am also aspiring to join Stanford. i attended their information session in Mumbai a couple of weeks back and fell in love with the school.

My case is a little complicated as i already have an MBA. Actually, i have done a 5 yr integrated course in engineering and management from NMIMS. Have a CGPA of 3.1/4.
Have average academic profile with 84% in both Xth and XIIth. Have good EC during college level.

I am working with a Multinational I-bank in Derivatives Valuation for the last 2 years. About to give GMAT in a week's time and expecting a solid score.

My profile is not strong apparantly, so keeping my fingers crossed and working hard on the essays.

Waiting to hear from other aspirants as well.

Thanks

Hi Guys,

I see there aren't many Stanford aspirants.

I too have applied to Stanford, knowing full well that its a long shot.

I believe that people have ben receiving interview calls for a while. Anybody here received one?
Alternately, has anybody received a rejection?

I haven't heard from them since they found my application complete.

Best of luck to all.
