Dating a Kellogg MBA Student?
Dating a Kellogg MBA Student?
I met this guy online 2 months ago, he moved to my area to goto Kellogg Northwestern for his full time MBA. He is from Argentina, we got very close while communicating online and when I picked him up at the airport it was like I was seeing my soul mate for the first time. He stayed with me for 2 days and then we needed to move him into his apartment on campus. I live 30 miles away and its kind of a pain to get up there but I am willing to make the effort. I work full time downtown and have my own life an schedule. I really want this to work out, but I am terrified of ruining it by maybe being overbearing. I helped with basically arranging everything for his move, I didn't do this expecting anything in return, I just did it to be nice. He is away at the moment on some school trip with his classmates which makes me feel a little weird. Does anyone have any POSTIVE advice about how to make this work? We have great chemistry and so much in common. I am just scared that this MBA program is going to change him, I know there is no controlling this, how do I stay active in his life without looking like a jealous girl?

You met him on line so you communicated quite a bit. Continue the on-line contacts and see what he has to say. If he invites you to visit you'll have an idea that he is interested. If he asks to let him visit you, same thing. Don't get pushy but stay in touch. An MBA program is demanding, and you have a job, but there are weekends. A meeting one or twice a month may be enough initially. Don't rush things. good luck.

There are seperate international roaming features for airtime, data and text messaging. The World Traveler package is $5.99/month and gives you a discounted rate when placing calls while roaming in Argentina. The discounted rate is $1.99/minute. If you didn't have the World Traveler package, the calls would cost $2.29/minute. If friends and family from back home call your cell phone they are not billed anything additional but you would be billed the $1.99/minute to place a call home because you are roaming on international towers. Text messages you send cost $0.50. Any text messages you receive count against what is included in your current text messaging plan. If you have unlimited text messaging, there would be not deduction for text messages received. If you don't have a text messaging plan, each text would be billed at $0.20 received. Picture and video messages are $1.30 per message sent. There are several data packages available for the iPhone when travelling internationally. The $30 data unlimited plan you currently have does not cover international travel, so you will need to look into the available international data plans in order to avoid overages. $24.99/month - 20 MB $59.99/month - 50 MB $119.99/month - 100 MB $199.99/month -200 MB To figure out what data plan would suit you best, you may want to call customer service at 1800-331-0500 to ask what your typical data usage is like. A customer service rep. can add these international plans for you.

Nobody will stand you at college if you try going to UBA ( University of Buenos Aires). Because is free for argentinians. We don´t like foreign people at our free colleges. Because that money the state puts in your education will never go back to the people because u will return to the states with a high level university education that was for free. When at the states u have to pay a large sum of money to study medicine ! Seriously think about this. Choose a private university. Buenos Aires is a dangerous city and I have no doubt only in a private university u will feel comfortable and out of danger. I suggest you UB ( universidad de Belgrano- Belgrano University), UP ( universidad de Palermo - Palermo University) or Maimonides University to study medicine in this order. You can rent an apartment close to the university previously paying six months before taking it. And as you are from abroad, price u will pay is the price for foreign people. ( Argentinians and foreign people have different rates, of course yours will be much higher !) If u find it unfair or you expected a free college education, you always can keep at the states.

Well, i will be short. The best university to study medicine is UBA. which is public you dont have to pay anything. then you can also go to UNIVERSIDAD BARCELÓ, UNIVERSIDAD MAIMONIDES, UNIVERSIDAD FAVALORO, UCES, UAI, AUSTRAL. but the best ones are UBA, BARCELO AND FAVALORO. =)
3 :
Public Universities are free for anybody. Private ones, off course not. Belgrano is private, but not expensive compared to USA prices. But I recommend the UBA, which is public, free, and produced a Nobel Award of Medicine (Houssay). You will not be rejected, looked down, or being misstreated. You are welcome, because as as student, you are like an all-year tourist. But you will need a Student visa, (or become an Argentine citizen). Rate crimes on Buenos Aires are on the same level than in New York. In particular, if you behave like a tourist, dressing like a foreigner, and showing your Rolex, and iPhone, you will become a robber magnet. To enter to the UBA, you will need to do the same exams that any native, and also a Spanish course (or just Spanish exam if you are already fluent). Argentines are friendly and welcoming to foreigners. The problem is that on Argentina, real state guarantees are asked to rent a house, and foreigners generally don't own real state on Argentina so you will need to pay a bank to provide one, or share a rent with another Argentine student who owns real state on other city, or pay an unfair high rent.

EVERYONES ANSWERS WERE VERY HONEST AND EVEN THOUGH IT UPSETS ME I HAVE TO FACE REALITY BUT IM GOING TO ADD SOME MORE INFORMATION MY DAD LIVES ILLEGALLY IN THE UNITED STATES TOO, BUT I HAVEN'T TALKED TO HIM IN 4 YEARS I'M NOT SURE WHERE HE LIVES BUT MY MOM SAYS HE LIVES IN NEW YORK BUT IM GOING TO FLORIDA.

I would say it definitely makes you chances even much more slim.No US embassy will also approve a Student visa if you want to go to High school here. The only good news is that you should be able to gain a US visa at anytime provided you can showcase strong ties to your home country but provided you have lived here for that amount of time in the US before no consular officer would want to take the risk. You're also not going anywhere without a US visa which in likelihood is not within your reach until you have good grades from where you are currently located & you can afford a tertiary institution in the US while showcasing strong evidence that you will return when your studies are finished.

Getting a student Visa is hard and a final part to get admission in school. You have to go through the Student Visa interview process. They will asked you absolutely about your capability to complete your studies in the U.S. and your financial resources or your parents financial resources to cover the cost of your education in the U.S. It is very important: don't ever dare to Lie for the questions asked just to get a Visa because if you do and they will catch you, your chances of getting a student Visa is not possible.
4 :
To go to high school in the USA on a student visa you have to pay the cost of providing the education. About $10,000 per year. As well, the people sponsoring you and providing you a place to live must be legal US residents or US citizens. High school is only free to people already living in the USA.
