<p>I saw this program on CMU's website. Basically you get a BS in computer science in 3 years and go directly to CMU's graduate business school to get an MBA.</p>
<p>I had some questions:</p>
<p>1) As long as you maintain a great GPA (3.7+), should it be very difficult to get into this program? How many people get accepted and how many apply?
(i guess that was two)</p>
<p>3)What are my chances to get into the school of CS
SAT: 2200 9(800M, 690CR, 710W (10 Essay))
GPA: 3.72 (rigorous public magnet)</p>
<p>A 3.7 GPA in SCS is pretty darned hard to maintain, so unless you're absolutely sure that you're going to be able to pull it off (which I think very few people are), you might not want to plan on getting into that program. I imagine of the few people that apply to it every year, most are able to get in, though.</p>
<p>I think a lot of SCS people wouldn't bother with this, since they can already get really high offers with just their BS after four years.</p>
<p>MBA immediately after getting a BS would put you as one of the youngst MBA students in the cohort. </p>
<p>S took an entreneurial class with MBA students as a CMU senior. Most all were in their mid-upper twenties, with work experience. He brought to the table, computer aided design skills from ME. If he took other classes with this group, he would be certainly be outclassed in every aspect. He did have a 3.7gpa CIT. Grades were not the issue; Maturity and business (accounting, legal, management fundementals) stuff are more important at application. Many students were married, households, and had cars, something a lowly undergrad would not know.</p>
