Hi there,

Got the MBA admission with scholarship. Any would-be schoolmate or classmate?

A mail from UIUC reached me this morning. So, I can sleep deeply from today.
It is enough although no scholarship is mentioned in the letter.

Good luck to us.

ok

Thanks.

It is my pleasure. Hehe...

I was informed to have on-campus interview in Dec.
However, I can not go to USA for the interview, so I asked for an alumni or phone interview. They answered me that UIUC doesn't make phone interview and told me that they will make my application into final consideration.
And so I wait,wait,wait,still no information....
What does this mean?

你申请的MBA还是MSF？
如果是MSF，应该不需要面试吧。反正我没有面试。
如果不放心，最好发信去问问。

谢谢你！我申请的是MBA！

致所有打算申请,或者已经申请,又或者已经被录取的朋友:

不是想泼你们的冷水,虽然我不是MSF的,但我的roommate就是,所以我想我还是对MSF有点认识的.

UIUC的MSF是一个很intensive的课程. 听说两年前program设计是两年的,但是由于某种原因(我估计是财政方面的),课程被缩短为一年.首先我要说明,UIUC的finance全美排名不是很前(我没有确切的数字,只是知道accounting & engineering是前五--信息可能已经不update了,不好意思).我的roommate读得很辛苦,整天不是case study就是赶project.还有一个地方不好,就是没有提供CFA的review course(呵呵,比起accounting department提供的CPA review course来说,逊色了一些).

另外,记得前面有个朋友说过,如果想长远留在美国,找个工作的话,一年的课程对你的口语没有太大的提高.可是口语在你找工作的时候所扮演的角色是非常非常重要的. 我经常和我roommat抱怨这样短时间,口语进步不大,而且一年时间,可能只是你刚刚适应美国的生活,然后你就要出去社会了. 这样的弱点是非常明显的.

另外,不得不提的就是,UIUC的Biz School是按semester收学费的. 如果你想拖长来念,那是非常不划算的.不过我想,很多美国的学校(尤其私立)已经是采取这样的方式来收费的.

总而言之:累,贵.当然,我也不能尽说坏话,UIUC毕竟还是一所很好的公立学校,校园非常的美丽,四季分明(只可惜风太大了).

祝各位好运!
