I got accepted to the WP Carey MBA program for the fall 2006. Specialization in Sports Business. Anybody else here an ASU grad, or ASU MBA grad? Anybody gong there now?

 

End of my Sophomore year as a Finance student at WP Carey.

Congratulations on getting accepted!

 

1994 Grad!

Congrats! Good place to be.

 

I was thinking about it.... I've got in's at ASU and Thunderbird.

I'm going to a Kaplan Session today to lean about the GMAT.

If you don't mind me asking.....

Where did you undergrad?
What was your GPA?
What did you get on the GMAT?
How many times did you take the GMAT?
How would you describe the application process?
What program did you select? (Night, Weekend, Full)

If I decide to do this I might have to switch jobs. My company pays dick for post graduate education.

 

PMd you seminole.

 

the poison spreads ...

 

Oh shit! Elitism!
I'm in Texas all over again.

 

Congrats, by the way!...
MBA is a splendid degree considering the offshoring of manufacturing, engineering, and technical labor.

 

Yeah, but I plan on outsourcing professional sports to India and China. Cheaper stadiums, cheaper broadcasting technology, and of course cheaper athletes!

 

Didn't you tell me FSU is awesome, and ASU sucked?....You need an "in" to go to ASU?

MBAs are dime a dozen these days, understand that just because you have an education doesn't guarantee you a well paying job. Most of MBA school is networking and making friends....so you have a deep bench to call on when you need a job.

If you do what you love, the money will come.

Good luck with Thunderbird, you need to have a second language and a desire to work abroad, possibly experience in doing so already. Del went there and she had already studied Chinese in Taiwan/China for a few years.

Thunderbird is like $20K a semester....not sure if they allow you to work during school.
