Did you have a call with Linda?

Nope not yet.. But the mail says she will contact me tomorrow

Hey Evan

A little confusing. In the email they sent me, they said I could take it on Coursera. However, after a phone call with them last night, it looks like they suggest the course through Columbia Video Network. So I'd go with the latter.

Hi Jonoh, I asked Linda last night if we can take those "graded courses" on MIT OCW, and surprisingly she said yes, so could it be that they don't actually have strict requirements on the result of courses, or just that she made a mistake? The CVN costs over $5000 for one course and it's a little too expensive...

 

[Jonoh]

Hey Hacose. I would go with them not having such strict requirements. Thanks for the heads up. I definitely want to save that kind of cash.

Okay, thanks Jonoh. It seems they are wanting courses that provide credit then, not to mention its cash in their hands. Thanks again for the heads-up.

Who all are taking the pre-program courses?

this thread has gone really silent!
any updates, people? has anyone from hold or waitlist received an acceptance? i think some conversions should have happened given that the results came out 45 days back or so.
