Whenever we hear of a BSer who made it in somewhere and is now having second thoughts, it always makes us go “Hmm.” Sometimes, what happened is the BSer applied to Schools A, B, and C…. and also School N. Nobody wants to go to School N. Getting in to School N didn’t even make…

($) “What if School D gave me money but I really want to go to School A?”

by EssaySnark

This happens a lot. You got into a couple schools (YAY! 🙂 ). One of them offered a chunk of change in addition to the admit (SUPER YAY! 😀 ). But you really prefer one of your other schools that didn’t offer you squat (NOT YAY. 🙁 ). Sometimes the money makes a difference. But…

($) A comparison of NYU and Ross from one BSer’s perspective

($) The BSer’s Dilemma: Deciding between Michigan Ross and NYU Stern MBA (international student)

by EssaySnark

We’ve waited a full year to post this in order to not “out” the BSer who lucked out with these admits.

First of all: CONGRATULATIONS IF YOU’VE RECENTLY BEEN ACCEPTED TO BSCHOOL!!! And good luck if you’re still in the limbo of waiting! It’s perhaps the hardest part of this entire process.
