Back to school

After seven eventful years, it’s back to the classroom. I have joined a Masters program in Mass Communication at a university here in Atlanta. I have a Bachelors degree in Civil Engineering and work experience in the field of software and information technology. So this is a BIG shift for me. Like all the other *important* decisions, this one also came about in very less time. Less than a week, in fact. I think it was Geetu who put the thought in my head. For some reason, I brought it up with Pinch and we looked around for programs in the city. In a couple of hours, we landed on this one. The application submission date was less than two weeks away. The admission committee had to approve my GMAT score since I hadn’t taken my GRE. Surprisingly, they agreed to accept my GMAT score. Apparently, this was the first time they did this… 🙂 The SOP took its own sweet time but it got done. Finally, Pinch took my entire application package and dropped it at the admissions office a few hours before the official deadline.

Starting first week this January, I’ll be attending classes two days a week and working at my current place the remaining three days. Wish me luck, people!!!
