I have a merchant navy background+ startups in India+ internal consulting role in Canada with a GMAT 740. I have been rejected at Ross, Cornell and Tuck - something about my profile which they don’t like that is why I am a bit pessimestic about visiting.
I completely understand about visiting especially in an awkward position on a waitlist. Frankly, you can probably achieve a similar effect by continuing to supply updates and telling them that Fuqua is your first choice and you will take admission if you are offered and you will attend. at the same time, if you have no other options and you need to go to school, and you don’t want to have regrets later that you could’ve done something and you didn’t, you may throw money at just so you don’t have regrets or doubts down the road.
PS. What sounds like a great background to me but schools may also see a lot of activity so you may want to make your résumé more focused and your post MBA goal as safe as possible or as logical as possible I should say.
