Hello House

Hi bro, I think its depends on Ur school, my school which is Thompson Rivers University made it clear to me that they only refund in CAD and USD . I went ahead asking them the specific account they want and they choose my Dom account which I have forwarded to them.


However, I still went ahead by calling my banks which is firstbank and Gtb, asking them how possible will that be for my school to pay back to my dom account and fortunately they confirmed that is very possible since they agreed to pay in to my dom account. You can still make inquiry from Banks though.

Thanks brother and yemdogg

The best way to get your money increased is by using a dorm account or a 3rd who has a dorm account or a dollars account. That's what I did. Not all schools allows 3rd party beneficiary though.

Hello Yemdogg I do have a dom account but someone here posted that the money was paid back to the originating account which is gtbanks since I bought the dollars through them.

If I send my dom account details will the school pay me or send to get bank because my difference in dollars is close to 1.2 now and that's no joke to let go now.

Thanks

option for 3rd party refund was stated in my Refund form,due to the fact i didn't use 3rd party sponsor or i don't have a 3rd party to entrust such refund to his/her account,so i bothered not to ask them how to go about that process and who effective it is so i chose the option of Self refund.
I thought someone said the bank will pay you the same amount you paid and not a penny more on the increase in dollars

MichV on your 3rd party option on refund were you asked to state a reason? If yes which reason did you give
Travel / Re: Travelling To Canada Part 11 by lonzo(m): 2:39pm On Oct 24, 2016
michV:
in reasonable light of your above statements,LOE/SOP is not a must nor requirement but in some cases it's demanding and some instances it goes against the applicant by the VO stating STUDY PLAN is INCONSISTENT with previous studies which i see as an excuse by some VOs to discard merited applications. meanwhile police clearance can be a do without requirement although it's a mandatory requirement explicitly stated on checklist. Since it's masters admission..everything is possible as long as the demanding relevant documents for the VO to conclude his/her decision are there.
Congrats..

Hello michV I want to call for my refund. The third party option has a place for you state the reason why you are using such option. Did yours have it ? If it did what reasons did you give. Thanks

Let me contribute to your question

Your asked how the kangaroo traveled from Australia to meet Noah.

Remember during this period no one could say where Australia is or rather that no kangaroo existed in Noah time.

To make it easier, from the time Noah announced the destruction please read the bible and see how many years it took before it came to pass.

For the animals I the sea animals where not included so that will reduce your count drastically

Lol, you don't need to be sorry for aiming so high. Fact is, you should. You don't go for an MBA for the classes, assignments or even projects. You can learn that running a real-time business. You go there for the connections and support long after you graduate. If you get into Chicago Booth, that by itself is an achievement on its own, so that getting a job after graduation won't be much of a problem, because the school would have solved the challenge for you during admissions.

So, don't be shy of going after the Ivy Leagues. Just a caveat though: If your best achievement by the time you'll admitted is that admission itself, then your chances of getting in are very slim. Admission committees at Business Schools tend to admit people who don't need the "school brand" on their CVs - they would've been successful without it. It's like banks lending only to those who don't need the money.

If getting into Chicago Booth would be the best thing that's ever happened to you professionally or personally, your chances are probably pretty slim (because you don't have enough to bring to the table, which is why Chicago Booth would be the best thing that's happened to you).

And one more thing: MBA applications is a whole job on its own. I'll advise you don't start with the GRE.

Try and peruse the application pages of different top B-schools, to have a feel of what they require, so you can determine if it's what you really need now, or will ever need in your career. Check HBS, Stanford GSB, MIT Sloan, Wharton, and also Chicago Booth.

If this feels like it's hard, it's because it is. It's hard, but doable.

Thanks happyday

I did speak with Chicago booth, MIT Sloan and Columbia during the MBATour at Fourpoints.

I appreciate your input besides my family is the best thing to happen to me professionally or personally

Cheers

Okay boss, you've a very interesting and solid profile. But I need to ask, why not the GMAT? Since you're going for an MBA. You've gone very far in business than in Info Systems, so I suggest you choose the MBA. And MBA programs usually take students from all backgrounds, so no worries on that. The only issue is getting into a decent MBA program that will justify the investment, once you finish your program.

As for the GRE, it might be hard to cope with in-person classes, and also take care of the family. You can self-study. Yes, you can. All you'll need is focus and a determination to do important work daily, and make progress in your GRE prep. No matter the distractions you might have.

What MBA programs have you shortlisted? This would help set your target scores, and motivate you moving forward.

Thanks Happy day

The reason for the GRE and not the GMAT is because I found out most schools now accept the GRE for Business School.

I attend an MBA fair last week where Chicago Booth, Columbia and MIT all presented. I did prefer Chicago Booth.

Sorry for this Ivy league schools am mentioning just understand my target is very high

I also read about Wharton and some other crazy Business School.

All the Schools I mentioned accept GRE. So what do you think

issue of refunds is devastating especially when handled like this.since it was an agent that facilitated your application/admission,i feel he has the appropriate contacts in connection of getting your refund.You may have been mailing the inappropriate contacts responsible for that.
Likewise during mine,my admission officer aided the processing of mine,she later handed me over to another lady involved specifically for matters concerning international refunds and student activities.though i just got part of some payment because fee increment made me paid twice,i am still expecting the remainder

Hello michV

How long did your payment take and I want to ask if you used the 3rd party option.

I want to get my refund but when was hearing here that the funds will be sent back to the originating account and I will be paid naira here it just put me off so I am considering the 3rd party option.
Thanks
