Hi,
I applied to CBS for the full-time MBA program and received a deferred decision on 11/2/11 saying that I can expect to get a final decision anytime by the 2/1/12 deadline. Can you please elaborate on what exactly is a deferred decision? Does this mean I'm wait listed?
Thanks,
Arsalan
Hi arsalanask,
Thank you for your question. We do waitlist some candidates, but it sounds as though you are going to be considered later in the process. This means we will reevaluate your application with the larger pool of applicants. ED applicants can sometimes receive this decision and are no longer bound to the ED commitment if they are then admitted. We give this decision to a very small percentage of applicants.
Best of luck!
Hi Matthew
I got this deferral decision, too. And I wonder can I submit updated essays, resume, or recommendations to improve my candidacy?
Or, I can not re-submit materials, but can share some update on personal and prefessional achievements via email?
Best,
Bonnie
