any idea on what are the chances of converting waitlist?
Hi @venram ! The chances of waitlist conversion depends on various factors (applicant pool, communication with adcom and proactiveness). Here are a few suggested steps that you shall follow post a waitlist:
1. Find the officer in-charge of the WL and connect with them.
2. Write a supporting email to the WL officer in-charge. Including the points given below:
- How and why you were not able to present your 100% during the application.
- Express that you are still very interested in the program, and how it will be a perfect platform to help you achieve your ST and LT Goals.
- Mention how you have improved over the period, add few work promotions or new awards or achievements
- Connect with any current students (or alumni) of the program, mention their names and the best things they said about the program.
3. Try to be in touch with the b-school in all possible ways (LinkedIn, email, online events).
