“Duke tuition scholarship in the amount of  $15,000.  Of this amount,  $7,500 will be available in the first year of the program and  $7,500 in the second year and may be applied only towards Duke's tuition.”

谢谢DUKE2009的热情。我先报个到，周日会过去。可能有几位同学我在DUKE时见到。那天正好是Fri 庆祝我们的春节。我见了好多同学。

请教一下：DUKE能够给的奖学金有多少啊？以上的奖学金可以进一步谈判吗？我知道有些学校是可以和Director直接面谈的，只要candidate对自己有足够的信心。谢谢回答。

2年以前的奖学金是1/4学费，但是也有极个别的拿到全奖。中国同学拿的基本都是1/4奖。跟学校谈可能会有帮助，但是你谈之前必须要想好你为什么值得更多的奖学金，给学校一个比较solid的理由。

Good luck!

请教,政府背景对于DUKE有什么优势和劣势,和商业背景的人相比是不是有比较大的劣势.以往DUKE有这种背景的人吗?

我现在已经在自己创业了,虽然起点很低.  另外在申请中推荐信是不是很重要,因为在单位领导基本上不会英语.

I have a question.  Do IB/MC (HK region) come and recruit on campus?

I guess HK office may not come to Duke?  Maybe only the big cities, such as NY, Boston, Chicago and SF?

That's exactly what I want to find out from current students.  I just take Tuck off my wish list before companies don't recruit on campus.

Yes, you are right. Hong Kong banks and Asia Consulting will not come to Duke. Some of us went to those big cities for event. The event is majorly for networking. Sometimes it works, sometimes not. For me, I joined an consulting event in one of the major cities. Because I was the only one from Duke. It make recruiter easier to remember me. And I closely kept in touch with them since then.

Besides, if you don't want that much networking it's also fine. It is a fair game. As far as my experience, HK Banks and Asia Consulting does not requires networking. RESUME IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING(Especially for consulting)!  If firms are impressed with your resume, they will invite you for interviews. Those interviews are usually held in big cities. This year, McKinsey in Chicago and New York, BCG in Chicago, and Bain in Boston. Those trips are very nice -- the firms cover everything and treat you very nice.

Hope this helps.

Thanks demon. This definitely helps.
