Which are the other B-schools that you are applying to?

What were your criteria in choosing these two schools?

Are you aware of any alums who were from the IT industry?

I am looking at Ivey, ROTMAN, Cambridge, Cranfield, Warwick, UNC, Kelley,

Choose Warwick, Cambridge and Cranfield because they are 1 yr courses. They are in UK and are in the HSMP list so work Visa is sorted out. Besides UK economy is doing very good and so is the pound and all the three schools in UK are very reputed.

Ivey and Rotman again because Ivey is good for Consulting and so is Rotman. Again Canadian economy is doing very good. ALthough I am in H1 use work laws are not very conducive for immigration.

Which schools are you applying to ??

In UK, I am looking at only these two schools, primarily with the cost and HSMP factor in mind. Other schools in my radar are Queen's Canada and MBS australia.

I am currently working for IBM and what attracted me to Warwick was the fact that IBM has a tie up with them.

Guys,
no activity on this thread for long time.... I am also an aspirant for warwick...

Hi All,

I have started working on the essays for Cranfield. Will apply to Cranfield later on only.

For all applying to Cranfield, lets dissect the institute its pros and cons so that we can write our essays better.

I applied to Cranfield today, though my referees are yet to send in their reports to the college.
After I submitted the app online, the confirming email asked me to only send the marksheet/transcript as supporting doc either by email/fax/post... I have sent the scanned copies in an email.

Is there anything else to be done from my side?

Thanks
Anil

Guys,
Hope you are keeping an eye out to what's happening to the MBA provision under HSMP visa option in UK. It is being withdrawn soon.
So what does it mean for you all?

It means that under the new system you will have to qualify with 75 points under Tier 1 to secure employment in UK post Cranfield MBA (or any of the earstwhile top 50 MBA programs) in 2009. You guys should better check out what it means for each one of you.

Forewarned is forearmed. Sorry for bringing this disappointing news.

Ive recieved an offer from Warwick today. Any1 else out here confirmed for WBS FT-08?

Viper,
How long did it take for you to get the decision from Warwick after the interview? I had my interview a couple of days ago. went well.
Also got an admit from Lancaster. still reserching which one to choose.....if given a choice that is.

They sent me a s-mail after 3 days. Though after the interview i was pretty sure that I will scrape through. 😃 ..Ive been to Warwick and it a lovely campus, i fell i love with that place. Lancaster is ahead in FT rankings , but rankings should not be the priority to pick a school I reckon.
