Dear all,

I was accepted to FT MBA at Glasgow University Business School for 2010/11.
In this post I would like to link together people who are planning to study for Glasgow University Business School FT MBA in 2010/2011.
If you are already accepted, if you plan to send your application for 2010/11 FT MBA or if you wish to share information about the programme, please do it here.

Many thanks and best luck to all.

Hi,

Hi bozic,

I am planning to apply for Glasgow by this week can u give some guidelines on application and key factors to take care....

Hi there,

send as many (=all) documents as you can with your application so they will be able to give you the answer as soon as possible.

Best luck,

Bozic

Make it fast.I think total intake is mere 40 to 45 students.At the same time it is not much difficult.All the best.

Hi ,
I have an offer from aston /bradford/durham.Pl help in ranking them.
Rgds

Aston>Durham>Bradford

By next year Bradford is also going to become triple accredited university.As far as FT rankings is concerned though Brad gets triple accre. I think all of a sudden Brad cant go ten steps ahead and go near Aston or durham.But possibilities are there.See FT rankings.Aston has got good career links.

Hi Susee,
But the selection process of Bradford and Durham are a bit tough. However Aston seemed very easy as they didnt even hv an interview call .

Suggest?

Hi Yagna,

Since you had a interview, it does not mean that, they are superior.What was your GMAT score?.That would help me to put some comments.

Aston has got a very good industry links when compared to others.I guess you had posted a good GMAT score.Perhaps that would have helped you to get admissions in Aston.Other wise it is tedious to get in.

But again,honestly speaking,I have not tried for Aston,so its bit difficult to make a comment on them.But over all they are genuine.

Hi Susee,
GMAT wasnt reqd.

Does anyone of ur acquaintance studies in Aston or applied frm same.I guess Bradford and Durham are bigger brand names.
Rgds,

GMAT matters Yagna..........Those are entry level norms..If you post a test then that will take you to next step.Though my score is less but that was the passport for my admissions.My exp negotiated for weak areas.

In general people will say,it is not required........But if you wish to get in top order than I prefer GMAT.I think that is the yardstick....

More over Brad is going to become triple accre... by this year.So it may join with 1% pool.But all of a sudden will it climb 10 to 15 steps ahead?I don't know......I am also eager to know.I too got an offer from Brad,Glasgow and Birmingham.Expecting Lancaster by next week.....

In all aspects Aston leads......

Hi,
Will u join aston? How many yrs of mangerial work ex u hv?Anyone else u knw has studies thr or in sum othr univ in UK? Howz the Job Mkt thr?

One of my friend is doing MS program over there......I think MBA should be considered as a long term invst rather than short term invst.....People have different views.....Perhaps current situation is not attractive...Think after 5 yrs....By avoiding a MBA you could have saved some 25k to 30k....After some time even if you think to do a MBA program it may not be feasible...Your age,family conditions,cost may not allow you to focus on your studies.It is true that many foreign students do their studies even at the age of 50....But do you think,is it feasible for a Indian family guy.......I think our culture may permit us to focus on next generation(your kids) only....
I too was in dilemma when I start my preparation......But now got some clarity...........In case of worst scenario you may get a placement here for 12 to 15 lacs p.a...Yesterday I checked with Great Lakes placement report......You need not worry...

I din't tried for Aston.....I came to know that we should send through post directly...Bit lazy to do that.......Let me try by this week...
