Hello,

I’m very interested in applying for the macc programs at several schools in the US. I got a few questions regarding the admission statistics/process.


is it HARDER for International students to get into these programs, compared with domestic students? do colleges require higher standardized scores or gpa from international students?
how big of a factor is internship taken in college in getting admissions?
is internship in finance, (but outside accounting-auditing) viewed favorably by the admissions office? how about enrollment in the cfa program? currenlty, i’m a level II candiate. Can they offset a low gpa (around 3.0)?
Considering the facts above, what is my chance of getting into schools such as university of texas, uiuc, vanderbilt, or boston college assuming that i score around 650-700 on gmat? FYI, I went to a top 30 univ. for undergrad.


Thanks.
