How much time do you get once you have become accepted?

I've got until February 15th. I was accepted on December 18th, but I think the two month timeline isn't going to apply to everyone. My guess is anyone who gets in over the next week or so will have until then.

Hope to see you there too ProfessionalKazooist. They just updated my status to accepted in the system today, hence, I accepted the offer today.

Brothersharp - Are you planning on attending UCLA if you get admitted? Or are you sticking with McCombs? Good luck either way!

today I really surprised. I didn't pay the application fee only submitted GMAT and TOEFL scores in McCombs. I decided not to apply and they earlier mentioned that they'll not consider my application unless fees are paid. Today I got a rejection email! If a person doesn't apply how he/ she can get a rejection email. I really don't like the complex way of paying and non responsive nature of Financial Aid office. But my query is that as I don't inform McCombs that I'm not going to apply and as they have rolling admission then how can they reject me? It could have been possible that I can apply later stage!! Anyways I feel not to apply there might be right because for an international student (not domestic or in state) the cooperation from the adcom is very important and that was missing in this school. This is my personal opinion.

if you finished your application and actually clicked on the submit button, then its treated as if you have applied. Im sure you would have accepted their honor codes, etc also before submitting.

The application fees, supporting docs, etc are all parts of the application that are required to complete it. Since you didnt submit them, your application was not complete and you have been rejected. If you did not wish to apply, you shouldnt have submitted the app.

Sometimes I almost think schools in the range of McCombs love to be able to reject people with high GMAT's, just so they can say they did.

Probably a stretch, but my mind wanders as I wait....

Obviously the gmat is just one component but I find it hard to believe somebody who scores a 770 puts together a mediocre overall application....

I think people with excellent numbers sometimes need to make a really strong case why they want to attend certain schools (fit)--especially those that aren't as highly ranked. Yield is an important number for demonstrating desirability to prospective students. Schools don't want to lower their yield by admitting students they aren't reasonably confident will attend. That's my thought. Either way, I'm sorry to hear it.

I agree. Lower ranked schools know that someone with 770 will probably get in somewhere in top 10 and consider Texas as a back up if everything else goes wrong. They don't want to drop their yield, and hence the overall ranking (specially if you are struggling to stay in the top 16-17).

I don't know guys, I don't think McCombs is out to punish those with higher GMAT scores just because they're afraid they'll have low yields. In fact, I think the opposite, Olin offered me a full scholarship to tempt me away from a higher ranked school, and its a very effective tool.

Though vyomneeraj's profile looks very impressive, I think he has to compete against much tougher Indian candidates. Also, I have a friend who was admitted to Stanford but rejected from McCombs, but it was by his own admission that he thought he was a shoe-in to McCombs so he didn't put in as much effort. Keep in mind that McCombs acceptance rates still are around the low 20%s, so people can't be taking it lightly. (though I'm not suggesting that thats what vyomneeraj did, just a thought)
