<p>hey guys, I am an international pre-admitted by Ross. I know both Ross and Wharton are fantastic undergraduate business school, but in my country, Wharton seems to enjoy a much better reputation. That's really important for me since I will finally return to my country after graduation. Can anyone tell me how difficult it is to transfer from Ross to Wharton? Any strict requirements? PS: I am a gap year student and in last year's application I was waitlisted by Upenn's Management and Technology Program. </p>
<p>hey, i don’t know that much about transferring, but i would say that your GPA at ross would be the main deciding factor. i did go to Penn’s summer program for M&T, however, and know that the regular program is pretty much impossible to get into- the statistics are so low that they won’t even publish them. getting into wharton would be much easier!</p>
<p>if Chinese students come to the US and study in our best universities, that is fine, but if they go back to China, and work for a criminal government that opens suppresses free speech, abuses it’s own citizens, tolerates massive government corruption, then all the US is doing is helping support a corrupt government.</p>
<p>I challenge BizInt to say anything negative about what his goverment is doing here, obviously he would be afraid to do this because his postings are monitored.</p>
<p>I understand the social-political realities of the PRC, the government leadership lives in fear of social unrest. they then do everything they can do to suppress in free speech.</p>
<p>I met a women this weekend, she was the new wife of an american, and she was quite vocal about the corruption in China and how the government employees are taking bribes.</p>
<p>I am all for immigrants attending our universities, this is what has made the US great but we should not be supporting a corrupt goverment that is actively hacking our computer systems.</p>
<p>“but if they go back to China, and work for a criminal government that opens suppresses free speech, abuses it’s own citizens, tolerates massive government corruption”</p>
<p>Oh before I read the whole thing I thought you were describing the Obama administration.</p>
<p>hey!Thank you for your words.Well I think you take that too seriously.Corruptions happen everywhere in this world, and certainly in China it could be much more serious than in Hongkong,China and in Singapore.(I have actually never been to US so I will not take US as an example until I really experience it and see it).</p>
<p>There are many tragedies in Chinese history, including the Cultural Revolution in the 1970s, the 6.4 Tian Anmen Square disaster etc in the 1980s. The Google Problem until recently. Every Chinese knew these. However, China is developing too fast, so the most important thing is to keep a stable environment, mainly political environment. Let me give you an example, Ukraine’s Orange Revolution pushes the country to Democracy, but the economy stops to grow because the political conflicts replaced the economic constructions to be the country’s most important thing. </p>
<p>China is still on the way. The censorship system will finally be replaced. I think I understand China is too far away from the standard of US democracy. I will go to the United States to absorb the advantages of a more efficient system and go back to change China in the way that suits China most. </p>
<p>As a wise young man, I hope you can go to China yourself to experience it. The flight ticket is only about 1,000 dollars and your full trip will not cost you more than 3,000 dollars. No one will keep an eye on you like in the North Korea. Jump out of the news titles of CNN. You will find more.</p>
<p>By the way, do you know anything about transfering? ^_^</p>
