Is this the only school u applied to? A school with less than 5k enrollment just doesn't cut it. Stop setting yourself up. Most of these private schools r an easy way to get screened out.

U also didn't write GMAT or TOEFL.

Also, u said u are a CEO but your uncle who is another CEO will pay your fees. What kind of a CEO can't pay his own school fees?

I am just been blunt here, no hard feelings.
