I just got an admittance email from LIBRI Estelle, without any indication of scholarships. Does anyone know if any scholarships will be announced at the point of admittance or all will be announced by the May 27 deadline? Thanks.

Congratulations! That was fast!

I was told by a student that scholarships are announced over a period of time, closer to the final date, which in this case is the 28th of May. Hope that helps!

How are they going to evaluate applicants without a GMAT score for R2? When would they ask us to submit a score before acceptance?

We will have to provide the score before they complete the evaluation, I'm afraid that with the current 15 days to book an exam appointment if you have not take it yet they will be getting it by mid-June.

Thank you!

Sure, I actually submitted a GRE score as mentioned in my profile. My background: former big 4 financial consultant, who pivoted into performing music (home and abroad), music education and now music business full time, with long term goals in media entrepreneurship!

Hi all,

I submitted my application for R2 already on 17th April with all necessary documentation (was targeting R1, but received the second letter of recommendation only after the deadline).

As I am expecting decisions from other schools this month I was wondering if Insead might review applications faster before the indicated deadlines if I ask for it?

Can you tell me from your experience if this is worth a shot?

Hey guys, for those applying to this round at INSEAD, is anyone having to switch from the GMAT to the GRE at the last minute because of the situation with the online whiteboard on the GMAT? I find myself seriously considering it. I was one of those stuck not being able to take my GMAT in time before test centre closures, and I'm not confident the test centres will open where I am in time for the R2 deadline. Would love to hear what others have or are doing!

I delayed another school 3 times because of my INSEAD app; therefore, I decided to write to INSEAD, explained clearly my situation and asked for an early decision. INSEAD didn't commit but in reality, they tried their best to support me. So you can give it a try. However, from what they wrote to me, I don't think they can share any result more than 2 weeks before the deadline.
