doubts-
1. I would like to ask u about my chances of getting into nanyang MBA.
2. I had sent my scores to nanyang through gmat. They sent me an acknowledgement mail of recieving the scores and encouragd me to apply. A couple of weeks later i recieved another mail from nanyang saying that i fall in the category of preferred candidate and they strongly encourage me to apply. They also offered me waiver on application fee. How many students get such mails and what are the chances of conversion for preferred candidates? I am asking this question because i would have to give up my admission in another university if i take risk and apply to nanyang (because nanyang results come late and my session in that univ will start in feb)
I am in a big confusion because nanyang is my preferred institute. please help me.
thanks

:
Dushyant, from the questions you've listed, it seems like you got the concept of part-time MBA wrong.
It's meant for professionals who already have a job, in the same country. Which is why the question of how many part-time MBA students got a job after the MBA is irrelevant.
Don't consider a part-time MBA as an easier alternative to a full-time MBA. You'll be disappointed.

I want to discuss about my chances of getting into NUS and also the chances on scholarships.
I understand that scholarship are very limited and for most of them Indian Nationals are not eligible. But I have constraints on financial fronts so I would like to explore all the sources.
I learned from one of friend that there's a bond system I which you can sign a tie up with the Singapore Govt. and some rebate will be provided on the tuition fees. Though, I haven't had any official source to confirm on it. In case, you people have any idea about the same do throw some light.
Thanks in advance for your reponse.
