Applied: UCLA Anderson, UVA / Darden, NYU Stern

Entering Year: 2024

Post MBA Career: Technology Companies: Amazon, Apple, Facebook, Google, Microsoft

GPA: 8.4/10

Location: Brazil

Notes:

Took the EA (162) and applied to schools that accepted it.

NYU was 1 year tech program.

Factors influencing decision: location, % of class going to tech, cultural fit and resources for tech recruiting (specialization, clubs, professors, etc). Already had UCLA as my top 1 and the fellowship was the cherry on top.
