Well, The admission office told me that they can't accomodate any alumni to interview me in Taiwan so the person will try her best to find a alumni for me, adivse the result before Nov.27th 2006 and give me one week to arrange my interview. I first wrote a mail saying I am more than willing to go to such places as Hong Kong to take interview and even called the school but got no reply till today. Although they said interview was not required I am still very worried about it since it may affect my candidacy.

What can I do for now since the US was on vacation of Thanks Giving?

Thanks you all for your kindly advises.

The school will resume office on Mon. Be patient. If the Adcom cannot find you someone, you can still do a phone interview.  Although the interview is not required, I strongly recommend you to take advantage of this opportunity to know more about Fuqua and let Fuqua know better about you as well. Good luck!

Fuqua的Marketing很强, Ross是在Operations上面有优势. 申请的时候可以两所都试一下, 不到最后你也不知道自己到底适合哪所.

谢谢colorant. 我打算明年两所一起申请. 另外, 再问个很GREEN的问题, 关于成绩单, 毕业证书, 学位证书, 想确认一下FUQUA需要英文版本的吧, 是不是翻译好以后盖上学校的红章, 再直接寄给学校?还是可以先寄给我再由我寄出去呢?

Thanks, colorant for your information.

I would like to know more about Fuqua's MKT concentration. Why do u think Fuqua's MKT is good? Do you have more detailed examples to explain?

Also, are there many Chinese students choose to major in MKT? If yes, how's the job placement after their graduation?

Thanks again!

Help,

here I meet some problem that my university does not offer GPA or Ranking, it only offer orginal score for each course I had when I was there 3 years ago.

 

So can I just send the orginal transcript without GPA and Ranking to Fuqua? or should I calculate the GPA by myself?

 

And by the way, I want to confirm that if I apply online, the transcript is only hardcopy that I need to send to Fuqua directly by courier such as DHL,right?

thanks

1. send the original copy

2. calculate the avg score to fill the application form, i.e. 85/100

都可以。只要是原件。 最好是学校在信封的封口敲公章。

I called the admission office, trying to reach miss Katie Madison but she was away for interviews. I left my message and express my willing to even fly to HKG for interview and my email so she can get back to me. So far I got nothign and the deadline had already expired.(they said they would get back to me befor Nov. 27)   What else could I do for now?
