Hi Raman,

I got email last evening. I am IN..... Currently on cloud 9999999...

BTW I need to get the info about whom to contact for the student loan. I think ppl have posted some info in the prev pages. Let me know if you have any specific details.

Cheers!!!

Dear Sesha, Can you please throw some light on the no. of waitlisted candidates for your batch. How many of them got the final offer last year. This year they are delaying indefinitely to put out the final admission offer list. It would be really great if you could provide some info about last year admissions, to understand the extent of the movement of waitlist.

@ChennaiChess: Hey dude I think you are in, 'coz if you see the updated doc of the list of applicants, you can see one guy has opted out...

Congrats man!

I am getting the result as - "Waitlist No - 6". Can any of the seniors throw some light on how many waitlisted people got confirmed last year?
I'm very disappointed by seeing the result. I thought my interview went very well.

I have a query regarding the Sending of documents to XLRI

i have filled up XLRI form through online payment and as i read we have to take the confirmation page and attach the 10th 12th and BTECH marksheets and send to the address.

i have a query that do we need to attest the documents and then send it?
and do we have have to send each semester marksheet or provisional degree can also be done. my university has not provided the degree certificate and i just have provisional degree.
please help me in dis query.

Please PM me regarding this.....!!!

I have not seen anything like asking the applicants to send the marksheets, etc on the website. As far as I know, we need to send the XLRI PP GMAT form along with the original GMAT score sheet and the DD.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Hi all,

I am Akhil. I did my B.E in ECE from Anna university, Chennai in 2006. Worked with Tata Elxsi Bangalore for four and half years and currently working with Siemens Chennai. Totally I'll be around 72 months old in the IT industry by the time I enrol for any PG by fall 2012.

Looking to do an MBA to understand the nuances of management and push my way through to the senior managment. I have aspirations to become an entrepreneur in the long term. I hope the work experience I gain post MBA would be of great help to acheive my goal.
