Dear Manpreet,

I think George Mason is an appropriate choice for you and that you have a good chance of getting in there. Other programs that might be of interest would be ones with strong entrepreneurship and general management curricula since you will be returning to your family business. You should have a good chance if the GMAT average is below 680 and you submit a strong resume, well-written essays, and good recommendations. Perhaps look at Babson?

Good luck,
Lisa
