Hi everyone. i applied to Booth in R2. just three questions:

1. Does Booth have a verification process for admitted students (ie to verify employment info, dates, university grades, etc.)?
2. If so, how long does this verification process last? How much time between the day you are accepted and when the verification process is fully complete?
3. If i am accepted on March 27, and then voluntarily quit my job in the first week of April, could this jeopardize my acceptance? Should I wait to leave my job until the verification process is complete or does it not matter?

thanks

Hi there, you've got a straight forward question and, thankfully, they come with straightforward questions!

1) Yes, they do (all do)

2) It can take approximately 3 - 6 weeks (depending on school, components verified, and company) and takes place over the summer after all deposits are paid for the mostly final round (so e.g. R3). That way they know with 98% certainty what the class will be and they're not wasting their resources.

3) No, it won't matter. They are verifying that you worked there with the appropriate title and salary and role. They are looking for falsifications or fraud, not natural progression. Want to feel more comfortable? It's VERY common for people entering an MBA program to do a pre-MBA internship which requires the person to obviously leave their job voluntarily. So you wouldn't be the only person doing it by any means!

Hope that helps,

Bhavik

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
