If you keep that going, you may not need to get a master degree. Somehow, I have a feeling such a trend does not last long

I was admitted from the wait list on Friday via phone call. Best of luck to everyone in the waiting game.

Hi, I was also admitted from the wait list via phone call. Have you received any additional e-mails explaining the next steps?

How dif you Know about that? Do you think it is almost over? Should we contact the Admissions office to make them Know we are still encouraging?

 

[IanXiao]

I saw several guys show their admission on the forum, so I think MIT may already have enough students now or the possibility is very small for us now....

[Quantaspirer]

All,

1) University of Cali, Berkeley (white collar dacoits)
2) Uni of St. gallen (dirt cheap tuition,but high cost of living)
3) Duisenberg School of Finance (50% schol given + the rest of the fees + living expenses to be funded by uni itself through loan from ING... in short I dont need to give/arrange a penny)
4) Frankfurt school of finance and management (reasonably priced but a 2 yr program - so i lose one yr)
5) Uni of melbourne (white collar dacoits + 2 yr program. However I am getting a post study work visa of 2 yrs after the course which means they cant kick me out)
6) European business school, germany admit (50% scholarship. Also cheap and arranges funds for student + there is the option of a dual degree from one of their 200+ partner institutes which includes the likes of NYU, Uni of Toronto, NTU,) HEC Lausanne, Oxford and so on)

Can you please advise which one I should choose

 

[bifteck]

St. Gallen,

But you're little off topic since this is all MIT...

 

[Applicant MFE]

Hey does anybody received news about the waiting list status?
I know that the program is about to start so I guess we should consider that we won't join.
