How to build an alternative transcript for MBA programs?

2010-03-15 9:17 pm
I am interested in pursuing my MBA from a top 30 b-school but by undergrad GPA was a 2.5, which is horrible. I have not yet taken the GMATs yet because i want to put together an alternative transcript so i have a chance. How do i do so? Can i just sign up for graduate level classes at a local university or do i need to get accepted to the program first? Would i be eligible for financial aid if these clases are not counted toward a degree yet?
更新1:

let me rephrase that. In addition to my undergrad transcript, i would take 3 - 4 grad level courses to show that i have matured since undergrad and am serious about getting my MBA. Ex. say i took a stat class in undergrad but didnt take it seriously and got a 2.5, if i took a grad level stat class and got a 3.7 it would show that i am capable of learning the material. I think it's pretty common for people in my position to take additional classes and send an additional transcript along with their undergrad transcript. google "alternative transcript mba" if you still dont know what i'm talking about. I just want to know if i can just go to any university around me and just sign up for a couple classes with out joining their MBA program? and if i can get financial aid for those classes?

I am sorry, but as I understand it, your plan does not work at all. For one thing, you must submit transcripts of *all* your college work. If you do not, you will be caught and expelled in the event that you are not caught before you are admitted.

Yup, the person is correct. You *must* submit the records (transcripts) of all your college curriculums. Also, you should start look at the GMAT because GMAT is not easy at all. I have known many people who gave up on it. In your applications, you will have to write many essays, and you can use the essays to explain why you received a low GPA and write something to strengthen it. If you can get a high GMAT score, it will help you to compensate for the low GPA. Trust me, the academic background is only half of the battle. You really need to write some essays to prove you're a good candidate. What can you bring onto the table?
參考: Took the GMAT and admitted to a top business school. Everything from personal experience.
