Calling all UCLA-Anderson Applicants(2015 Intake)Class of 17

Thanks, and likewise!

As for the generic Round 1 update e-mail... Yes, I just got that too. I thought it was funny that I got an update about when interviews will be going out AFTER the fact. I personally like how they are rewarding the early birds with an early review. As for everyone who submitted near the deadline, don't worry too much about not getting an invite yet. I'm tracking that only 3 people on this forum have claimed getting an interview... 2 of whom submitted at least 3 weeks before the deadline. I have a strong suspicion that UCLA sends out invites on a rolling basis... from now until mid-December.

As the great Aaron Rodgers once told Packer Nation: R-E-L-A-X

Not sure if this was posted yet... but stumbled across this recently: https://blog.clearadmit.com/category/int ... -anderson/

A whole bunch of statements from last year's applicants of what the interview was like for them as well as what questions they were asked.

Hi,
Even I got the same mail. So I guess it was generic. Nothing new in that mail. However,I am surprised to know that they "anticipate" to send bulk invitations by mid december !! That's way wayyy afterwards from now..

This was the e-mail exact content:


Thank you for your application!

Dear <candidate name>,

We appreciate receiving your Round 1 MBA application, and look forward to getting to know you better through our process.

For your reference please note:

We anticipate sending the bulk of our interview invitations by mid-December. If you are selected for an interview you will receive an email from our office with details. Interviewing on- or off-campus carries the same weight in the admissions process, so you can choose the format that is most convenient for you.
If you would like to visit campus we are always ready to welcome you -- please start by scheduling a class visit and/or group information session.
If you have any questions about UCLA Anderson or the application process, please reach out to us or visit us online.

We will be sure to keep you posted!
Best regards to you,

UCLA Anderson MBA Admissions and Financial Aid

Yep. Got the same mail. It's more of a confirmation mail than anything else.

Hi guys,

Long-time lurker here. I just received my interview invite from Anderson on Friday. I was surprised because the deadline had not even been closed for 48 hours! For all wondering, I submitted my application on 10/20, 2 days before the deadline.

When I log into my Anderson application account, it says my GMAT Scores were not received. However, I do have confirmation from Pearson Vue that they sent my scores to Anderson electronically on 10/1. Do I need to have my scores sent to Anderson again, or could it be that the Anderson adcom just hasn't accessed my scores yet?

Congrats on the invite!

I would write a mail to the adcom with a screenshot of the Pearson Vue email.

Hi ! First of all congrats. Btw when did you take your gmat exam ? 2 days before the deadline ..hmmm.. wel in that case the adcom is catching up fast..did I read december in the mail ?

I took the GMAT on 9/26, and the score report was fulfilled less than a week later. And thanks for the advice guys, I'll reach out to Admissions on Monday to double check. I'm super excited to interview - I'll be traveling to Anderson for what will be my second visit. I can't wait, I love it there and can really feel the spirit in the air (cheesy I know, but every bit true!)

All the best! Looking forward to the debrief (no more lurking )

Hey HealthcareMBAGuy, congrats on the invite! Are you doing a class visit or anything when you come to interview?

Congrats! Which are you going to do?

Does anyone know if Anderson looks favorably on those that interview on campus v. off campus? Especially if you are in a West Coast state.

Congratz!!! All the best for the interview.
When did you submit the application and your brief background?

App submitted on 10/18.

State school, average gpa. Good extracurricular.

4 years work experience at 2 bb banks. Promoted 3 times. Managing role now.

Will do live interview. Really don't think it matters which they do emphasize in the email.
