HEC Paris Sept 2011 - Intake

Hi,

I am in a similar situation where one of my recommenders was not able to submit the recommendation within the timeline.
Do you know if this is an issue and the applicaiton is labeled incomplete or if HEC has a window during which recommendations can be submitted even a week after the deadline or something similar?

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Dont worry about it. Over the phone, I was explained that recommendations could be submitted little late.

for those who applied for the sept and oct deadlines, did you hear your decisions on the decision date?

i'm in. thrilled.

is the linkedin group strictly for students commited to attending, or can admits still undecided join?

You raise a good question. It will be interesting to see who else is headed to HEC.
I just got the admit email too.

i requested to join the gorup and wrote a msg asking this... will let you know.

I'm admitted. Hello, guys. :)

congrats! where are you from? decided yet on attending?

Thanks!

I'm Russian from Finland, and I'm 90% sure that I attend.

Answering earlier question: the decision came one day before deadline.

Hi Jsonali,

I am prospective student from India. I am quite keen to attend HEC Paris but am quite skeptical about financing support from HEC. The loan limit in India is around Euro 34K and that too with collaterals. What help does HEC extend to help the prospective students in securing loan?

Thanks,
RKCM

Does anyone know what the exact tuition will be for the class entering in Fall 2011? A number I've seen floating around is 45106€ but I think this was for last year's entering class?

Hi everyone!
I want to apply for the September 2011 intake. Do you think that I still have chance of getting in or should I wait September and apply for the September 2012 intake? Also, I'm French so I will probably be in the most competitive applicant pool (I assume that a big part of the applicants are French...)

@bseb

I will also be applying rather late for the September 2011 intake. I had initially thought that applying this far into the cycle wouldn't be a high probability venture but most of what I've read states otherwise. I've read that HEC gets the bulk of their applications around February (unsubstantiated at this point) so I don't think we're at a significant disadvantage applying for the Feb 8 deadline. Having said that, as an international I'm not situated in the most competitive applicant pool and I don't know exactly how that will affect your prospects but I recommend you apply anyhow. If you've got other apps out this cycle its worth the approx. 150 euros for the app fee just to give yourself some extras options should you get accepted. Worst case scenario, you can reapply for 2012 intake.

As a Frenchie, do you need to apply with the GMAT or is there some other selection scheme? If no, what is ur GMAT? Have u considered applying in the last application session or you reckon that the chances are pretty low then ??

GMAT and TOEFL are both required. I have a 720 GMAT score. I'm debating whether I should apply for the February deadline or if I should wait September and apply then to increase my chances...

Not sure if this helps or if it's a good indicator, but there's only 48 people on the sept'11 intake group on linked in. very few are french, though I'm not sure how popular linked in is in different countries. Also, this is for admitted students, not students who have committed, helping further support the case that it might not be a bad idea to apply even if it's a later round?
