Can anyone confirm we dont need to send official gmat score report until the interview decision
scformba
It's a straight mail saying "UCLA Anderson MBA decision available now". I think based on my observation of available time slots for interview, there should be more invitation coming out.

I submitted the application pretty much at last day of deadline and my official test scores are not sending yet. (Which they asked me to send after I received the invitation)
Congrats on the invite

Did you get any message or mail before the invite that they are reviewing your application?

Just want to know if it is straight to invite mail
Cos currently i have no idea if they have even started looking at my app

A handful went out, two on Clearadmit and two here. I'm unsure if there's any crossover, but it's not a large cohort yet.

Do we need to submit our GMAT and Toefl scores through official channels, otherwise our applications won't be considered complete? Or can we do this later as well?

Hi NaveenGJ ! As per the information given in the official website (https://www.anderson.ucla.edu/degrees/f ... quirements)

"Official GMAT score reports are sent electronically upon your request from Pearson VUE to UCLA Anderson MBA Admissions (with the School Code 2NZ-2F-24). Official scores are required for admission but not for applying."

"Official GRE score reports are sent electronically upon your request from the Educational Testing Service (ETS) to UCLA Anderson MBA Admissions (with the school code 0771). Official scores are required for admission but not for applying."

"Official TOEFL score reports are sent electronically upon your request from ETS to UCLA Anderson MBA Admissions (with the School Code 4837-02). Official scores are required for admission but not for applying."


Your self-reported scores should be good for application evaluation. Just to have a clear picture it's best to check with the Adcom directly via email for the latest updates.

Hi!

I applied for R2 and got an invitation to interview.

The school is requesting my official diploma (I have sent the official transcripts), however, I do not have my diploma yet since it's in process (I have to write and submit a thesis), but will have it by the time classes start.

Most schools allow this (HBS, Duke, etc.) but I am unsure how to handle UCLA as the request is within 15 days of receiving the interview.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to how to handle this?
Thanks!

I would say it would be best to send UCLA Admissions an email and a phone call to set-up a meeting to explain the context. Often times they can be very accommodating as long as you give them a heads up with as much time as possible.

Congratulations manuelalegorreta , on your interview invitation! The best way is to promptly contact the adcom via email and explain that your diploma is pending as you still need to submit your thesis, but it will be awarded before classes begin. You can ask if they would accept any docs. or a letter from your university confirming completion of all coursework and the expected graduation date. Additionally, provide all your official transcripts confirming your academic status. Good luck!

Hi, is it advisable to apply to R3 with GMAT waiver? I am an Indian Female, total 4.5+ years of experience. 3 years as Healthcare consultant and last 2 years I have been exploring. Doing different entrepreneurial things. I really want to give myself a chance because I have been too scared of my profile, and always doubt my self. I couldn’t score well in either GRE or GMAT, hence going with waiver. Any advice would be appreciated. I wouldn’t wanna wait 1 more year for my MBA as I will turn 28 and by the time I get out, I would be 30.

Not advisable. Do not rush. Do not apply with a waiver. Aim for R1 with a score. Thinking of age as a barrier is a self-inflicted wound.
