Admit packets are being sent in the mail -- look out for some nice big envelopes (hopefully will reach you before the December holidays if you celebrate)!

And don't forget to change your profile accordingly over here

Hi guys I'm in as well (: really happy here. I expected the call all day long but I only learned it on the website. It was cold but the best news ever. Congratulations to all accepted and for those who didn't work out, good luck, I'm sure you'll get great news over the next weeks

Does anyone know how do I check whether I got any scholarships? Would it be on the online plataform/ on the welcome e-mail or they would only tell this by phone? Thx!

Congrats to all the new admits! Lots of awesome things being planned for you guys so get ready for it!

Also, whether you're an admit or a prospective, look out for upcoming Winter Socials around the world hosted by current students during their winter break. There are over 50 of them being planned right now. I found it extremely useful when I got accepted in R1 last year to help me make up my mind, especially since I didn't do a campus visit.


As tinkered mentioned, the Winter Socials are now listed on the Admissions website. They start as early as next Monday, so don't miss out on the one near you!

Winter Socials are run by current first- and second- year students and are casual ways for you to get to know people at SOM. We have them from December 15 through January 9 at over 50 locations all around the world (every continent represented except Antarctica!).

Open to interested applicants and of course, any recent admitted or waitlisted students!

Registration Link: https://som.yale.edu/our-programs/mba/admissions/events

Upcoming events just next week:
  • Orange County, California
  • Los Angeles, California
  • Oakland, California
  • Washington, DC
  • Chicago, Illinois
  • Charlotte, North Carolina
  • Mexico City, Mexico
  • Tokyo, Japan

Additional events coming in: India, Indonesia, Brazil, England, Germany, Spain, Australia, Taiwan, China, and more!

Woops... the LA event is still getting a confirmed location so registration isn't open yet.
The Orange County one is in Corona Del Mar on Wednesday: https://som.yale.edu/event/2014/12/coron ... ter-social

Hello all,

Trying to gain some clarity on the Why MBA now short answer question. Have you guys explicitly answered Why Yale SOM within the response for this question ?

Cheers!
