[quote=Anonymous]Yes, I know people in this boat. Some had parents that were paying but would only pay for a certain major and the kid couldn’t emancipate to take out loans. Others had a medical hardship before their school’s recent reform of their leave policy. In all of these cases, they were able to get jobs just fine but mostly outside of the on-campus recruiting pipeline, since many of those recruiting opportunities require a certain GPA. So they obviously weren’t going to Google or investment banking, but were able to break into other industries just fine. All of them are currently in professional school and got there by doing post-bac classes to show academic ability and dedication to their graduate school plans. It doesn’t need to be a formal, full-time post-bac program, either. Evening classes at NYU and Columbia were what one grad I know did and they even got their employer to reimburse tuition![/quote]
