One question on the tuition and course exemption. If i am exempted from 1 or 2 required courses (the maximum I think is 2 courses or 4 credits) how is that gonna reflect on the tuition fee?

Second question on international exchange program. 3 options are offered along with admission. 16 months with exchange, 16 months without exchange, and 12 months.  For the last 2 options, only people with 4 years of experience or over can do so. But the 16 months with exchange option says student has the OPPORTUNITY to do the exchange, which doesn't sound mandatory. So anyone know what the deal is with this? Can someone with less than 4 years of experience not go on exchange?

Thanks

// there are two kinds of exemptions. a. If you majored in business, and have taken the similiar courses to the 4 courses (9 credits) in the first half of fall semester, you will be exmempted from the first half, and the tuition for that 9 credits will be refunded. b. Otherwise, you cannot get refunded, but you can use the save credits to select elective courses.

// The information is actually not correct. Everyone can choose go or not go exchange, regardless of your working experience.

Thanks.

Still on the exchange, one form named Declaration of Study Mode, clearly states that you need to have at least 4 years work experience and 1 year living outside of home country. I don't know if this is new this year.

// Ignore that term. That one shows this year too.  If things don't change, you don't need to exchange if you don't want to even if you only have overall 1 ro 2 years domestic working experience.

got it. Thanks

谢谢Tingyun学长的回复。这回真的是碰到郁闷的事了。我的本科学校因为不提供成绩单的英文翻译，我就跑去上外翻译总公司翻译了。结果科大居然不认，说一定要Government部门或者本校提供的翻译件。是不是还要跑到上海市公证处去公证一下这个翻译和原件内容一致？不知道大家有没有碰到这种情况？学校现在又在放寒假，公证又要2个礼拜，急死了。

具体怎么做你尽快给MBA office 打电话确认，这样最快也最清楚。

谁翻译的无所谓，关键是要学校涉外部门（比如外事处）的印章

一般学校都会有这样的部门，仔细打听打听

你应该不会是你们学校第一个出国留学的人，呵呵

P.S你申请到哪步了？是刚申请还是拿到了Conditional offer?
