Ding from Haas

at Thursday, March 18, 2010

After more than 3 months of wait, I got a ding from Haas today. But have no regrets for putting my best into this application.. Things are more clearer now.. And I have happily accepted what ever this MBA application journey has offered to me.. 2 admits (Tepper, Olin) and 2 dings (Darden and Haas) and infinite learning and some great bunch of friends.

So here I move on.. From applicant phase to pre-matriculation phase. Hearty congratulations to those who got in.. And empathy to those who couldn't..

Madhurya Prakash said...: Hi Hari, Thanks for the support. Its going to be Tepper :) My 1st application and probably its true when they say 1st choice is the best choice. Given my interests in technology management, Tepper is a great fit. Hence I will be going with Tepper..; March 18, 2010 at 9:45 AM

H A R I said...: Hey, Congratulations on your Tepper decision. CM is a fantastic school (my cousin went to CM) and I guarantee you that you are going to have a ball of a time! Have lots of fun and here is one recommendation - Quit your job and relax, party & Enjoi!
