Smith (Maryland) Student taking questions

lyw4u2005

我是第一轮完成的申请，Jan 4th完成的面试。感觉效果一般。Jan 15以后应该开始放榜了，这两天一直check信箱，got nothing from Smith school。不知道lz是否知晓有关情况？

刚刚收到smith的email录取通知，flash版的，很有意思，不过害得我紧张了半天才看到congratulation



没有看到任何奖学金的信息；请问搂主，是否确定没有奖，还是在offical admission mail里另行通知？

leobear, 你好, 对Smith很感兴趣, 但是现在才开始有时间申请, 不知道international 学生赶March 1st的deadline 有没有戏, 虽然人在US. Smith 好贷款吗?如果那不到奖学金的话, 谢谢!

cocoabean

haha, Congratulation! lyw4u2005, 你面试了吗?面试是不是都在submit 材料以后进行的呀?自己可以主动提出面试吗?还是只有等学校的面试通知?

Did you visit campus? Is it necessary?

Yes, I had an interview on Jan 4th. Basicaly, I felt the interview was
relaxed and friendly. But the result was not satisfying due to my
horrible spoken English.



I submitted my materials on Nov 1st and I recieved their invitation for
interview in late Dec. I think you should wait for invitation for
admissions interview and submit your materials firstly.



I did not visit the campus. If you can, it's better for you to talk
with the admissions memebers face to face. You can do so before you
submit your application. You could leave them a deeper impression and
know better about their program and facilities. Of course, make good
preparation for your visit before you go.

Congratulation to lyw4u2005! According to your high GMAT score, you have great chance to get dean's fellowship. Be patient, financial aid notification will be sent out seperately.

Cocoabean,

I never heard any international students using loan obtained in US to support their study here. Some Indian students applied loan in India. Accutally lots of banks offer loan to international students in US, but the problem is the co-signer requirement.

Many thanks, lyw4u2005,

great, I will submit my package ASAP, and then wait for the interview invitation since Maryland is too far from my home.

寒假快结束了，发现又有不少Smith的二年级中国学生拿了不错的offer,希望Smith的applicant也有好运气，面试顺利！祝我自己的Internship interview也一切顺利

Smith从Duke挖来了Duke的金融系顶梁柱Pete Kyle,期待听他讲课

Foremost Financial Economist and Inventor of the Kyle Model Joins University of Maryland Business School Faculty

College Park, Md. January 23, 2005 - The Robert H. Smith School of Business at the University of Maryland today announced that Albert Pete Kyle will join the school as the Charles E. Smith Chair in Finance in July 2006. Kyle is widely known as one of the premier financial theorists of his generation. He is best known for creating the Kyle Model,which provides a foundation for the modern theory of market microstructure, a subfield of finance dealing with the process of price formation in financial markets.

Our ability to attract a scholar of Pete's stature says a great deal about the high quality of the Smith School and its finance department,said Howard Frank, dean of the Robert H. Smith School of Business. This is an individual who has an extraordinary career and impact on both the canon of finance research, as well as upon a generation of emerging scholars. Not only does his appointment contribute considerably to the teaching mission of the school and the department, but also to our stature and profile.

Apart from the groundbreaking quality of his research, Pete is also noted for his achievements in the training of doctoral students and mentoring of young faculty,said Lemma Senbet, chair of the finance department at the Robert H. Smith School of Business. Many of Pete's former students are now distinguished academics at leading institutions. He will bring considerable intellectual vigor and become a major asset to the entire research and teaching environment.

The extraordinary influence of Kyle's work is in part evidenced by the Kyle Model being among the most heavily cited works in the leading journals in finance and economics. Beyond his seminal contributions to the theory of information and financial markets, Kyle's research has had a pervasive impact in areas such as asset pricing, investments, corporate finance and financial institutions. Kyle's impact has also been extended beyond the stock market, and is reflected in markets for derivates, bonds, and global trading mechanisms, with policy implications for exchange design and market regulation.

Kyle joins the Smith School after serving as professor of finance at the Fuqua School of Business at Duke University. He received his Ph.D. in Economics from the University of Chicago in 1981. He also held appointments at Princeton University and the University of California at Berkeley where he was tenured before moving to Duke University. He has been a Fellow of the Econometric Society since 2002. He has also served as a member of the NASDAQ Economic Advisory Board and of the board of directors of the American Finance Association.
