The scholarship has nothing to do with the tuition fees of any b-school programme, however it'll help you a lot to get there Wink

The scholarship is worth $15000 & more is not in cash dollar but in terms of GMAT registration consession and some coaching (GMAT & MBA application) services.

Do follow the link of GMAT scholarship page or click here where your most of the queries will be resolved.

Are you interested in applying for the GMAT sholarship?

PostPosted: Sun Apr 27, 2008 5:55 pm    Post subject: Three questions regarding the 2008 Beat The GMAT Scholarship Reply with quote

I submitted my application about three hours ago and have the following three questions:

First, about the attendace requirement for ManhattanGMAT, I live in Tallahassee, Florida where the Manhattan GMAT does not have an office. If selected, is it okay to complete the course on-line, provided there is a time limit to complete it?

Second, whille I included the phone numbers of my references, I did not include their e-mail addresses. May I re-submit a revised application?

Third, I just re-counted the words and noticed that one essay is over two words and another is over three words the limit. I don't want to get disqualified. May I also change that?

I think that I speak for most applicants when I say (write) that you are providing a tremendous opportunity to help leverage the playing field for MBA applicants who don't have the financial means to get professional help for a dramatically competitive endeavor that is applying to graduate business school.

Thanks for the Beat The GMAT Scholarship.

Sincerely,

Isaac

Thanks for your very kind words, Isaac!

With regard to your questions:

  • Yes, it's perfectly fine to redeem your Manhattan GMAT prize as an online course!
  • With regard to word counts and references--feel free to re-submit your application to comply with the rules. We'll be more than happy to review your latest submission.

Good luck to you!

I resubmitted my application today in the afternoon and did not get a confirmation e-mail this time. Is this normal?

Thanks,

Isaac

Waiting for the announcement of winners is like doing the quant section in a test. You know you have done your part, but even if you wins it (aka get a good score in quant in the test), the battle has only begun for the GMAT and the admission process (aka verbal section in the test)!
