Got into Santa Clara U's MBA program for Winter 2009. Basically its a special program for those with less than 2 years work experience.
Byahness ensues. ;D

Damn man, congrats! SCU's program is quite good, and I'm pondering that as an option for myself in the future, if not Stanford.
Yoga!

Yea, I was researching the school a bit. 100k a year is the average pay post graduate. They got a brand new building for the business school that is opening up this fall or so.
Oddly enough, shit if you are considering it, you got about 6 months or so to take gmat and apply to be in the same time as me which would be kinda cool. The program is a cohort program, so you basically take the same classes as the group of people you start with for the next two years.
I got in with a gmat of 610, i would easily suspect someone like chip to break 700, josh at least break 650 (stanford is 700+).

Six months is too short for me to plan that out, considering my other work at the moment, though the idea of joining you in the class sounds cool. 2010 is when I expect myself to be in grad school.

Evening only program. *shrug* could work while attending (I think it is what they expect) if that helps at all. Application would be due in 6 months or so, class itself wouldnt start till january.
Looks like they are going to require at least 1A for calc, maybe 1b so thats what annoys me the most (rather focus on accounting courses like mad).
Application itself is stupid easy. Once I had my gmats out of the way it was just a matter of 3 essays which with chips help was done in a week'ish. If you work a lot after 5:30 or 7:00pm regularly might be worth a shot to try getting in on same time as me if its an option.

No, evening only doesn't help. Actually, grad programs need to allow its students to work while they attend it, or a lot of people are F'd. I was kind of talking of planning my life for it, not so much of a daily schedule. Between figuring out what to do for NexusBridge, the Junior Olympic Ambassador camp, and of course, Legend, I don't have the capacity to worry about a grad program yet. The hardest part of this is NexusBridge, because it all depends on how long the development of the website and its content lasts. If it somehow crashes and burns, then, well.. I'll start doing grad school apps after the 2008 Olympics. If it doesn't, I am, quite frankly, just getting the degree for extra show and fluff.
