I got accepted into the GAP program! Anyone else please PM me
Accepted!! someone PM me if they’re considering going
Alhamdulillah! ACCEPTED with financial award of $51700 (need-based mainly)
SAT:2060(superscored)
Weaknesses-SAT
Strengths- the ‘why babson’ essay. Started the essay by narrating a story about an insanely successful woman who owns her own CA firm, NGO& research center. The woman discovers a new field of study and wins renowned accounting awards with the help of babson! At the end, I wrote ’ this woman could be me if Babson accepts me’
To those who get accepted, did any of u have this statement ‘Our decision was based on many factors, most important of which was your academic achievement and personal integrity reflected in your candidacy. Our offer of admission is contingent upon continued success for the remainder of your senior year, and we ask that your final grades be sent to the Office of Undergraduate Admission by June 30, 2016.’ on your decision letter?
@msdfan I had the same thing literally
@frizzle333 guess they don’t personalize their letters. So, you going? If you don’t mind, may i know ur stats?
Nope no personalized letters, I have taken a gap year and they say the offer is contingent upon my senior year grades XD
did anyone get any scholarships or grants from Babson? I got accepted today but i didn’t apply for financial aid because my situation doesn’t really call for a need based grant…but are there any opportunities to receive grants at this point?
yeah got $51700(mainly need based). talk to student services if u want grants
Do you mind me asking what your parents income are? I only recieved $35000 and that’s definitely not enough
@Canadialand it’s approximately $30000
Ok that makes sense, my parents earn approx $100000
is the aid for one year or four years
may I know your stats. i got waitlisted too.
Do any of you guys know if Babson sends any physical mails?
Yup I got a folder with everything including acceptance letter. Takes a week or so
DS got a $7000/yr Arthur Blank scholarship for four years. Got a nice paper package today in mail.
I got in with a 1580 SAT… I don’t know how to feel about this
@jiggle wow congrats! Do you mind telling us what on your application you thought stood out? Like what made up for your SAT score?
Definitely my EC’s I dedicated my life to them and had a ton. Also, countless leadership positions and was the founder of organizations that gave back to the community. I honestly couldn’t believe they accepted me. So happy!
