That's great news.<br><br>The 150 of us are scattered across 24 of the 31 colleges the last time I looked. Typically the graduate-only and the newer colleges tend to take more MBA's, so if you'd like to be with fellow MBA's those are the ones to look at. If you'd like to be in a college with a bit more history, there are also plenty of those! They tend to take fewer MBA's on average, though. I'm at Jesus, which is one of the older colleges (founded 1496, though some of the buildings are from the 1100's). I actually chose it based on their rowing club, since I've been a rower for a number of years in London.<br><br>Let me know if you have any specific questions; my e-mail is jed *dot* christiansen [at] <a href="http://gmail.com" rel="nofollow">gmail.com</a>.<br><br>Cheers,<br>Jed First of all, Congratulations! That's great news.
