Has anyone had success leveraging an athletic scholarship to gain admission into business school? I played quarterback for a power 5 football team and still have a year of eligibility. I obviously didn’t make it to the NFL but would likely be an upgrade at QB for any of the M7. Odds a football coach having my back influences adcoms?

Is there a reason why Yale SOM's waitlist form asks which other school is your top choice program and the most important drivers for making your decision to attend a school? I'd like to remain on the waitlist but am wondering if notifying them of a M7 offer might increase my chances of getting off the waitlist.

Does anyone have their PHD or DBA? If so what are you currently doing and was it worth pursuing? I recently obtained my MBA and I’m looking into some programs but trying to see what’s the best fit for me.

Can someone help me listing companies which have any sort of reimbursement policy or support (eg. Sabbatical) for employees who wish to opt for further studies? Full time or part time
TIA

How do you guys reject MBA offers?

Got a McK offer, if I accept, would lose grad school tuition reimbursement from D (~$60k). Difference in base is minimal. Don’t intend to make a career out of consulting. Ideal exit is VC. Any thoughts?

Kellogg vs. Haas? I’m accepted by both. I have always been in love with Kellogg and wasn’t expecting I would be accepted by Haas. My goal is to MBB but I’m still trying to make sure if I want to focus on Tech industry through consulting. I’m not too concerned about the tuition, but more about long term connection with alumni and classmates.

Is INSEAD MBA a good program for breaking into MBB specifically in London? Wondering whether I should consider LBS / M7 US schools instead especially if they allow a London application anyway

UPDATE - people are leaving DS in mass, so will it be a good option to join there? My YOE - 4.3

Need your help to get more clarification.

Do Coforge release offers for chennai ? Is it wfh?

I've been following Coforge LinkedIn page, and I have decent offer from them. In one call HR said we will be moving towards 5 days work from Office, to which I said I don't mind. Now that aside, their LinkedIn posts everyone at VP SVP levels are joining.. seems like they are growing very fast, as hiring at such high Positions happens only that time.

Question is - whenever I compare Coforge with any other people say avoid Coforge.. Why????
