Notes:

I'm looking to minimize my loan amount.
I have a scholarship from Kelley but none from Johnson. I can ask Kelley for more scholarship leveraging Johnson but on the other hand, Johnson is a better fit for my goals, also no doubt a bigger brand too.
I also got waitlisted at Fuqua so looking for tips on scholarship negotiations and waitlist convert

Notes:

My goal is to start my own business, though I’m still defining what. I want an MBA with strong entrepreneurship program and hands-on skills. As a Plan B, I’d like to pivot to IB/PE or VC, where I lack prior experience. As an international student, brand matters and living in NYC is a preference. I’m really in doubt on what to choose. Thoughts?

Pre-MBA Career: Job lined up at DHL Consulting
Post-MBA Target Industry: Entrepreneurship, Venture Capital, Private Equity Companies: Andressen Horowitz , Kleiner Perkins , Sequoia Capital , KKR
GMAT: 705
GPA: 7.38
Location: United States
Notes:

I'm an MiM candidate at Kellogg expected to matriculate in June 2026. I have an undergraduate degree in engineering from IIT. I will be joining DHL Consultings Americas office as a Mgmt Consultant post graduation from Kellogg.
My undergrad GPA is 7.38/10 and am expecting a 3.7+ from Kellogg at the time of applications.
I have a lot of internships ( 5+) at start-ups across various roles(strategy, marketing, Product Management, operations), industries and sizes. From dorm-room stage to unicorns. Also held multiple leadership roles during my time at college. Founded and headed two social initiatives on sustainability and women empowerment and informally mentored underclassmen from underrepresented backgrounds.
Plan to exit consulting soon into a start-up. Post MBA goal is investing ( not sure if VC/PE/Growth equity ). Longer term goal is entrepreneurship in India ( Inspired by family legacy and want to give back to country )

Years of Work Experience: 6
Location: California
Post MBA Location: Austin or Southeastern US due to family
Notes:

- No excuse for low GPA, I was simply didn't have the necessary drive or subject matter interest in school, was more interested in playing music and doing enough to graduate. Pursued that simultaneous to my conventional job for a few years after school and actually had a couple cool licensing deals with corporate brands but in last few years decided to focus on career.
- unfortunately had an illness at the end of last year that led to me have serious vision issues, being laid off and subsequently on disability for the first part of this year. Have since mostly recovered except for an operation I should be able to get next spring.
