Just to echo aim-wsc's comment--yes, Canadians are more than welcome to apply, as are any international candidates!

Look forward to reading your application. I'll also set aside my bias toward the Detroit Red Wings. :)

If you are a scholarship winner, you will find out on May 22. On that same day you can sign up for your MGMAT class if you'd like. :)

Good luck!

2009 Deadline

by Radrads » Sun Mar 08, 2009 9:01 pm
So I noticed that the 2008 scholarship deadline was 11:59 PST ... is this the same timing deadline for 2009? :)

References

Thanks to Manhattan GMAT and Stacy Blackman Consulting for providing this amazing opportunity again this year!

I am wondering about the two required references. What sort of references is Manhattan GMAT looking for? I haven't yet told my boss that I will be applying to business school and possibly leaving my job, so I would prefer not to use references from my current place of employment if possible.

PayPal Account

Is it mandatory to have a PayPal account?
I am not sure how that works so although I googled it, did not find enough.

Yes, it's a requirement to have a Paypal account. This is the only means we have at the moment to transfer the cash prizes safely to you. We have lot checks and cash in the mail before. :(

More info at https://www.paypal.com. It should be free to open an account.

Thanks,

Eric

Good question. This isn't defined in the instructions and we aren't going to be picky about subject line. But one suggestion:

Scholarship Entry: YOUR NAME

Thanks!

MGMAT prize

by weipei » Wed Mar 25, 2009 10:30 pm
Quick question regarding Manhattan GMAT prize.

Hypothetically speaking....If someone takes the Manhattan GMAT in March and wins the scholarship in May. Will that person get reimbursed for the class?

Thanks!
