Baruch MFE Info Abt the Baruch Admissions Process

[rudraguhabiswas]

Hey guys,

I recently received a letter from Baruch that my application is complete and has been forwarded to the admissions committee. The decision is expected on or before may 15.

That very day i realised that the new Opt rules were out, and unfortunately through the wording i gather that I am perilously close to being out of status. I am of course in the US, in NJ.

I have an admission offer from IIT Stuart, but naturally wanted to wait till i received a decision from baruch.

Now I am in a real hurry, because the changes in my status need to be performed by the end of april.
My question is do you guys feel that if I went to the Admissions office and appraised them of my situation they may agree to expedite the decision.

Please do let me know your thoughts. I dont want to accept I-20s unless I am sure I want to go to a certain school.

About the opt unemployment provision

Hey guys,

I just read on one of the other postings that the unemployment provision is probably going to be upheld for people who applied for OPT after April 2008. I had it approved in Feb 08.

This answers my question, eventhough i will double check with my schools international student services.

Thanks for time. I dont have to ask the admissions committee to expedite the process now.

Thanks again everyone.
