Why didn't anyone tell me?!?!??!
I thought that the application bit, followed by interviews, were supposed to be the hard part of this whole MBA thing. Sweating over the GMAT prep, then some more sweating on essays, then some more (proverbial hopefully this time) sweating at the interview. Handwringing whilst waiting for the results. And then: aaahhh, bliss. A few more months of work, selling the house, coming up with good thank-you prezzies for the recommenders, throw a goodbye party and then I'm off!
NOT!!!!!!!!!!! WHY DIDN'T ANYONE TELL ME ABOUT THE HUGE, AND I MEAN HUGE, AMOUNT OF PAPERWORK REQUIRED FOR LOANS???
Honestly, they want to know everything, in triplicate. Bank statements from the day I was born, salary slips from the first ever time I got my allowance, every single penny I ever used of my overdraft and why I used it. OK, so I'm overreacting just a tad, but the amount of paperwork astounds me. Honestly, it is going to take me more time to get the paperwork organized for the loan than crafting the whole MBA application ;-)
For all of you able to get BBC2 on their tellies, a new series called 'How art made the world' is starting tonight at 9 English time, it promises to be quite interesting.
Plus, the Muppets return!!! Disney, which has bought the rights to the Muppets, apparently have big plans with the Muppets, amid widespread concern that Disney and the Muppets are just not going to be so funny a combination.

so i called Chicago last week and asked them what I need for my loan. they don't yet have the paperwork ready - but in essence it was don't worry, the money's already there. seems like it's almost a formality, though i don't know how many forms i'll need to fill yet. sounded it like was like a walk in the park. then again ... take gmat+write essays+go to school also does sound like a walk in the said proverbial park :)
PY, I envy you.... I actually asked my mum to go to two different banks today to get my photocopies stamped and signed (thank god for mums!). Big hassle, I hope HSBC comes through with the goods!!
