All, I have been waitlisted since round 1 and nothing has changed in my application but I was recently notified by my AO that my AO has been to changed to someone else. Is this common? Is there a reason why they are changing AO right now?

Nothing so far, I am on the waitlist since R1 as well.

It would be very useful if someone who has been admitted from waitlist could drop a line here below, since I guess any positive news should arrive in the course of these weeks.

I think you guys should get news once the deadline for deposits for R4 has passed (22 October I think).

Do they ever notify you when the class is full? So that’ll be the end of the waitlist

The class is likely full. Now you need to wait and see if anyone changes their mind and turns down the offer, or if they don’t pay the deposit on time. That’s what I’m guessing is happening.

Is it an option to send a message to the interviewer’s mobile number? The one provided by the AO. It’s been a week and my interviewers have not responded to my e-mail. I understand that they are busy and are only doing these interviews as volunteers. But I’m also thinking of the possibility that my e-mail went to their SPAM folder.

I see someone got cleared from waitlist in the decision tracker. Has anyone else received updates from INSEAD?

I just got off waitlist. In the email, INSEAD did not mention scholarships. When do they mention the status of the scholarship application?

hola15 yay congrats! They told me if you don’t hear regarding scholarships within a week of your acceptance decision then you probably were not selected.

I also just got off the waitlist. I applied in R2. Funny though as I was about to send an update letter and then I received an email from my AO. Patience is indeed a virtue :)

Hey! Did you do anything or update them on anything since you got waitlisted? They really just emailed you out of the blue?

Hello! I didn’t do anything at all apart from sending my initial response that I’m willing to be put on the waitlist. :)

Hey guys - congrats! Once you’re admitted they’ll send you an invite to create an INSEAD email. This can be used to access the https://gmatclub.com/chat groups where you’ll get to chat with others in our intake.

I look forward to speaking with you soon!

Just got admitted after being waitlisted since round 1.

Things is, when I was waitlisted, I thought that was pretty much reject so I accepted another job offer from a newly set up consulting team. Not as lucrative as the MBB consulting gig INSEAD MBA is known for, but not bad either. My new employer which went through hell to get my 2-year work permit was explcitly against me taking 1 year leave so I pretty much close off the MBA chapter. Not as if I will be admit right?

Also paid my student loan and unload my tuition fund to some big expenses/investments. What could go wrong right?

Yeah, now either I write an apology letter to INSEAD and pretty much give up my chance, or I burn bridge with my new employer and take up further loan.

I am dumb.

Explain the situation and ask if you can defer.
