hi everyone,
i am an accepted candidate (with $) from this year, however, i am a reapplicant so i know EXACTLY what you guys are going through right now. i applied jan round last year and was dinged. i did not receive any sort of special note suggesting that they highly encourage me to reapply or to receive feedback. i just emailed the adcom on my own and requested a feedback call, and they were kind enough to give me a detailed 20-minute call that explained the weaknesses in my application and what they would like me to address if i reapply. so i have a few thoughts for those of you that were dinged this year:
- if tuck is your top choice, as it was mine, by all means reapply!
- if you did not receive a "special" letter, do not be disheartened, be proactive and you will most likely get the same call and chance that any other reapplicant gets
- if you plan to reapply and want to hear my story, i am happy to share it and help anyone who wants to get in next year. just personal message me and i will help you on the reapplication journey.
good luck!
I got a rejection letter from TUCK this year and TUCK is definitely my top choice. However, I found myself did a great work during the application and result was such a great shock for me. Your post is really a great encouragement. Now I'm really confused if I should reapply TUCK or choose to pursue other school in the 2nd round this year. Can you give me some advice or how can I get contact with u? Much thks.
