<p>For a long time now, I've been harbouring the thought of transfering and gaining admission to Wharton,Ross or Mcintre after my first year in McGill. I really wonder if this is achievable.</p>
<p>Hey.. Just got my Letter of Provisional Admission for the BBM course today!!! Happy Happy Joy Joy!! Well, now it's just waiting for the board exam results! (which were not that great ) Anyways.. I herd that Board Marks are the criterion for a scholarship.. any idea what a good score wud be?</p>
<p>@anirban88 : How many days after the interview did you receive the offer letter? I had the interview for BBM last Thursaday on 11 May but till now haven't hears anything of the result yet :( ...so nervous</p>
<p>Hey dandelion86. Don't worry. I had my interview on the 9th of May, and got my letter on the 19th of May. What had happened in my case was that the professor who had intervewed me, had given the admissions office the interview report only on the 18th. So they cudn't assess my application till then. So I'm guessing the same has happened in your case. Where are you from? Could you post your stats.. Mine are posted on this thread already.</p>
<p>@anirban88:dandelion86's from vietnam and so am I. I had my interview on 25th April and still waiting for the result. Have you guys known anyone who was accepted to the BACC course? My stuffs are definitely not so impressed as anirban88's and I didn't do well in my interview.
I guess they take the best applicants first...
I'm thinking of taking the bridging program...extremely nervous T_T
oh,I forgot... Congratulations anirban88 ,you're so happy!!!
no wonder why they accepted you because I think with your stuffs you could apply to some unis in us also!!!</p>
<p>Hey Beaver.. Thanks a lot! Don't worry.. I'm sure you will hear from SMU soon enough. They must be finishing off with applicants from India first, and then Vietnam. Just wait till the end of May, and hope for the best :)</p>
<p>@anirban: Thanx so much for your encouragement ..I feel better now.. As you say : hope for the best ;)
@Beaver : you live in HCM , right? Poor us for having to wait for so long :( Last year , my friend had the outcome only one day after the interview . I have just written a letter to the admission office to inquire ... Have you written one yet ? As someone say, it's time we pressed the panic button ;)</p>
<p>@anirban:thanks so much...as we haven't been rejected till now , there's still hope!
@dandelion86: yeah, I've already emailed them and Miss Melissa said that my "application is currently still pending review by the admissions committee"
and asked me to send them my "final exam results as soon as they're available"
I don't know...what do they mean by "final exam results" ? Are those my 12th grade's results or high school examination results?
as for 12th grade's I've already have but can't take them right now
as for high school examination results, I will take the exam at the end of this month
oh, so upset!!!!</p>
<p>@dandelion: ay, one more thing, their responses' re real quick, let's me know if there's anything new</p>
<p>@beaver : today i emailed them twice on a row but they are still quiet : I will let you know as soon as there' s st new, hope it's good news.
By the way, good luck to your high school examination ;)</p>
<p>@dandelion :yeah, thanks so much. I guess your result'll come sooner than mine(as I have to wait for my high school exam results) so good luck for you!!!
this year, they claimed to received 10000 applicants for about 1200 places available for all programs, and 5000 appls for BBM only, god bless us!!!</p>
<p>@ beaver: yeah, lol.. Even I was pretty freaked out by that! BBM seems to always have the highest applicants. But then again, BBM takes up 550 places among the 1200 places they offer. So about half of SMU students do BBM.. not to worry!</p>
<p>You guys make me worried because I didnot even have an shortlisted email for an interview :(
Btw, do any of you know the email address of an adcom so that I can email straight to them . Too bad I often email to <a href="mailto:admissions@smu.edu.sg">admissions@smu.edu.sg</a> and they responsed kinda slowly.
anirban88: I sent you my stats :).</p>
<p>Anybody called for the scholarship interview?? How was it?</p>
<p>today I received a letter from the admission office . I will quote here so that you guys can have a glance on it : "Currently, your application status is still pending. For international students, you may expect a reply anytime in the month of June. Thank you."
What does "pending" mean ? Does this mean that now I have very little chance to be admitted?</p>
<p>anybody intends to enroll bridging course ?</p>
<p>No I dont think so... basically it means that priority is given to the Singaporean students... and international students will be admitted if there are spaces opening up. :)</p>
<p>Dandelion86: Don't worry.. They told me the same thing when I had sent them a mail long back. And now, its only May 25th, and I already have a confirmed place in SMU, after I submitted my High School Results. So not to worry. They will get back to you much before the end of June. </p>
<p>And for the others, any idea about the scholarships? When do we get to know if we have been selected for a scholarship interview?</p>
<p>anybody know any case getting interview call was rejected? Last year , all my friends interview were accepted. I really do not know what's the problem with my case ....so anxious....:((</p>
<p>dandelion.. As far as I know, nowadays for SMU, an interview call means Admission.. unless you REALLY screw up in the interview, which I am sure you did not. Just keep waiting.. My friend back in India also had his interview on the 11th of may, and he hasn't yet got his letter. Maybe something has happened for all the interviews that day.. don't worry..</p>
