I applied in round -2 and today received the mail from SMU that I have been put on waitlist for diversity reason. Is there anyone in the same boat or all get the interview calls from SMU.
Hi Ashish,
I got the opportunity to attend an info session at SMU and managed to caught hold of people from career services, current students and SMU's marketing manager. The later was very candid and told me, they already have selected quite a good number of Indians. And they wouldn't want a classroom to look 'un-international'. Having said that, he also pointed out, like Varun mentioned, if they get good number of quality applications, they may consider expanding the class size. So all I can say is hope for the best.
To others - my general observation is that switching careers in Singapore is a tad difficult. Nothing to do with SMU (I have a close friend in NUS as well), but that is the general trend in Singapore.
Hi folks, have received an admit with a 10k S$ scholarship. Need to communicate final decision and pay first installment this month now. Anyone else in the same boat?
Congratulations! for getting in. I had applied in R2 and have already paid the 10% amount to accept the offer. Trying to fix up a place to stay now.

I'm an engineer with 2 years of experience in Market Research. I'm giving my GMAT in October. Would it be advisable to apply in R3 of the 2013 intake? Or should I wait and apply for '14 intake? Also, are there any resources available that I can refer to for my essays? Just a general reference on how to word my essays in accordance with the standards acceptable to the ad-com at SMU. Any help from current students or aspiring applicants would be highly appreciated!
I don't know if this is the correct forum for my query or not , but would really like to know more about the Msc. in applied finance course offered by smu,
I am applying to final round mba admissions for jan '13 intake..i had a query reg reco letters. Most of the forms I filled ask reco letters to be filled online by the recomender at some links mailed to them.However,I wanted to know how does it work for SMU. Dont they mail online links to recomenders. Will I have to get the reco template manually filled from recomenders , signed and scanned and mailed to SMU ?

On need for them to sign and scan. They can just send it from their official email.
This seems to be a good option. I was thinking of staying in commonwealth PGP hostel or this one. But being a vegetarian, was wondering if any of you here are vege. If so, probably we can select one apartment
I am planning to apply for SMU for MBA in 2013. My GMAT score is 590 and I am yet to receive the final score. Will this score be considered too low for eligibilty?
Hi, I'm planning to apply to SMU (Not yet sure of 2014 or later) but I'd like to know what is the avg total expenditure in INR for a FT-MBA student (all included) and what is the avg duration to recover the expenditure. I ask this because I'll most likely be taking a loan to cover a large of the expenses.
Also, considering the expenses and recovery time, is the investment worth? (Question for existing students and alumni)
