I don’t know if this is the right bowl to post. But does anyone know how common it is for MBAs to revoke admission for their deferred MBAs? I’m a strategy analyst at Accenture currently working on call centers and I’m super worried Wharton or Booth will take away my admission

Im so confused. So companies hire consultants and pay their bill rate for them to work in call centers?! What???

What do you mean on call centres? As in you are doing a strategy project for a client which involved acting as a call centre employee?

Ummm I’m started in strategy like 1 month ago. I was able to find real projects that were willing to staff me but HR denied it and said all new people have to do call centers for 3 months (it’s been extended now for 5 months with no chance of roll off unless you have a mental health crisis).

The way most deferrals work is you have yearly check ins and you update the work you are doing.

There are definitely some red flags with the guy with his income and that he doesn’t speak English, curious what others would do - what would your parents say? Mine would flip!
