I formerly worked in a whorld leading accounting firm in China as an auditor for 4 years, and now work as a project manager in a NGO organization founded in the US by Chinese people. I know that Goizueta provides a good opportunity for concentration on finance, consulting and marketing, etc. While my long-term goal is going back to China and establishing my own NGO. So here I want to get some information about the non-profit concentration in Goizueta. Thanks for sharing!

NGO is not one of our regular concentrations. But you could customize your own concentration per your needs.

请问有没有读一年制MBA的人呢？在一年制MBA的candidate要求里有一条：

Completed coursework (prior to program start date) which includes: Statistics, Financial Accounting, Corporate Finance and Microeconomics

是说在本科学习的时候就要读过这些课程么？没读过是不是不符合要求？

谢谢~

Yes, that's a MUST requirement for 1-year MBA program. Also, you will need have work experience in business already.

Actually the above is one of the major differences in selection criteria of the two programs.

能介绍一下亚特兰大的生活吗，包括住宿，饮食交通等，每月的生活预算大概多少？

Living expense varies from person to person, but basically Atlanta's living cost is not high in US.

No on-campus housing is available, and most off-campus houses are unfurnished. Emory has several shuttle bus lines, so you may consider apartmens or houses along the routes. Once you got admitted, you will receive information from adcom and I'd love to share more details with you then.

Public transportation is awful, compared with Shanghai, and I guess it's the same situation in US everywhere except for NY. Plan for learning to drive and car purchasing, or you will be constrained around the campus, which is fine for the 1st semester though.

You have plenty of choices for eating on campus. But most Chinese students cook...it saves money as well as your stomach. We have Asian supermarkets in Atlanta, but you do need a car to reach there.

Thanks for your suggestion! I just got an interview opportunity in Detroit next month. I've noticed that such interview before application is also very formal. So could you please inform me some key considerations during the interview? Thx a lot!

Since you are physically in US, I will advise you to visit our campus in a Super Saturday Event. the first event is coming next Sat. Many prospective students come, and if you don't make the trip without a strong reason...then you may have a problem.

Yes, the interview is formal. You may need to wrap up your stories consistent and prepare for detailed questions to follow. Tie your experience with our core value...the school really takes it seriously. Also pay attention to your future career plan, as we are in such an economy.

多谢楼主的帖子，解答的真详细。

上周面试了Emory，可是一直没收到任何邮件。不知道是什么意思？是不是面试没通过，不要申请的意思？
