<p>lol I read ur post wrong, I thought u were talking about colleges in India for some reason, haha. I know that the majority of the people at IU are from Indiana, a big majority, so do u think it will help me in the admissions process that Im from California?</p>
<p>A2wolves - from reading the boards we must have applied to many of the same undergrad business schools. my brother goes to IU (the main reason I didn't apply there). It a great school with one of the nicest campus around.</p>
<p>I think they give preferential treatment to in state residents. So being OOS hurts you in the admission process.</p>
<p>Thats lame. Especially since I'll be giving them more money. I dont see how it could hurt me since thats what IU seems like all they want to do is make it more diverse, and they can do that by accepting someone like me who is not from Indiana.</p>
<p>Most state schools have easier admission criteria for instate. Anyway you'll be alright get a 3.0 at your college, and you'll easily get accepted if you apply early enough.</p>
<p>Im not in college yet, but I have a 3.9 weighted, so hopefully I can get in direct admit.</p>
<p>Tripperian...IUB isn't difficult to get into. They have a high acceptance rate, but they plan on tightening up standards. Direct admit to the business school isn't much different than if you didn't get into it. You don't start classes until sophmore year. Direct admits just don't have to apply after freshman year. I'll be going next year and I didn't get direct admit because I missed the cutoff on my ACT score by 1 point (28..needed 29) but I have a 3.7 unweighted GPA. A 3.9 weighted should be fine. I even applied late (february) and heard back within 2 weeks w/ a scholarship.</p>
<p>I saw on the IU Kelley site that as long as you have a 3.5 GPA and 1270 SAT Score you are accepted?

<p>Does that mean that I am essentially guarentied in? Even out of state I dont have to worry about it?</p>
<p>What kinda scholorship did you get? Are you instate?</p>
<p>Yeah, you need a 3.5 and 1270 SAT or equivalent ACT (29) for direct admit. Like I said before though, direct admit doesn't mean much since you don't take any Kelley classes freshman year. Everyone takes the same classes freshman year no matter what major you are taking. Direct Admit only disregards applying into it after freshman year.</p>
<p>I'm from NYC (OOS) and got the Faculty Award which I know a bunch of people got on here, which is $24,000 for 4 years or $6000 a year.</p>
<p>If I were you, I wouldn't worry too much about getting in...if you are, just make sure to send in your application earlier (rolling admissions) and you'll be guaranteed acceptance. What other schools are you looking into? Indiana was my safety and a school I thought of last minute which is why I ended up applying late January. It turned out to be one of the top schools I applied to for business, besides UMich and Cornell.</p>
<p>If one wasnt able to get in direct admit, is it hard to get in when u re-apply?</p>
<p>Yea IU is kinda a safty for me to but I would feel better if I knew I was guarentied acceptance bassed off that kelley admissions web page. I would be a legacy at IU so that was my main reason for thinking about applying (parental pressure) but it also has a really good bschool and ibankning placement.</p>
<p>I am thinking about applying to UPenn ED (super reach) USC, Georgetown, UMich, IU, Santa Clara, San Diego, and mabey UVa? What do you think about Santa Clara for Ibanking? It seems like a good location for internships ect, being so close to menlo park where all the BBs have offices? </p>
<p>My stats are 3.875 Weighted GPA 1900 SAT (640 CR and Math 620 Writing) and really good ECs</p>
<p>corporatelaw, are you resident of California? If you are, i would suggest UCLA and UCB... SDSU isn't that great of a school and neither is Santa Clara (not to put them down but in a state full of great schools there are so many better options.)</p>
<p>no actually im from Arizona otherwise I would definatly try for UCLA or UCB. I was actually thinking University of San Diego (the private one)...How hard is it to get into UCLA from out of state? I really would like to go there but have heard that its not even worth it to apply because unless you have perfect SATs and GPA from out of state you cant get in? Is it comparable to UVa for out of staters? </p>
<p>I figure at least at UVa not that many pepople from AZ apply as opposed to the cali schools where everyone want to go to get away from the heat.</p>
<p>Early admission is automatic if you meet the requirements. If you meet those requirements, expect a 6-7K scholarship, with other oppurtunities. Check out the business website, they have lots of endowment.</p>
<p>Indiana isn't hard to get into. Unless you have below a 3.0, or below a 22 ACT, you're probably going to get in (although you wouldn't get any money). For the Business school, if you don't get direct admit, you have to have a 3.0 at IU, then you are automatically admitted. For scholarship continuation, if you have a 3.0, it's renewed.</p>
<p>Actually, there is some misinformation. IU really doesn't discriminate at all against OOS students. It's actually about 35% OOS students, a large population compared to most public schools. There were kids from all over at my Freshman Forum, for the B-School, Music School, or for the party school, lol.</p>
<p>A2Wolves, it says in my application to get admitted OOS need atleast a 3.0 to be competitive, Instate a 2.5.</p>
<p>mssales - ur going to be a transfer to IU right? If yes, would u recommend going to a JC first and then to IU for money reasons? For one or two years? Do u miss out on a lot of stuff, like clubs and whatnot, if ur not there for the first two years?</p>
<p>I think if you could go there to start off then by all means do so, but if not I don't think you miss out on terribly much. Most students start looking for jobs and internships there end of sophomore beginning of junior year and some are fortunate enough to get them during freshman and sophomore year. So when you transfer you'll be a junior(?) so you have plenty of time to find a summer internship then senior year to look for a full-time position upon graduation. I've joined clubs on this campus, so I've been involved, and I'm sure you can get involved junior and senior year on IU campus.</p>

<p>In jobs u mean work study?</p>
<p>Go to Indiana they have pretty good Ibank placement, but there are obviously better ones too. I heard they were good for putting people into corporate finance.</p>
