Hey Himanshu :) Is the Whatsapp group for the FT program or the Co-op program? If it's for FT, do you have any idea about any groups for the Co-op program?

Hello Guys,

I submitted my application in early 1st week of March. Kira came out after a week of constant reminders. Coaching Webinar invite and the webinar itself came out in the 3rd week of March. Finally, the interview took place on the 10th of April where I was told I would hear back in 2-3 weeks. Does this mean I got a Ding already? (Maybe some extra time being taken while being compared to other candidates/ depending on the seats remaining) ?

Anyone who's had an interview on or around 10th of April and heard back his/her results?

Thanks,
Arijit

It's normal for the to tell you around 2-3 weeks. They're very busy right now so it'll likely take a while.

If it makes you feel better I was told less than 2 weeks and it ended up close to 3 because of a holiday week in the middle! Don't worry it doesn't mean anything bad.

Haha it indeed does. With your GMAT Score ; 3 weeks is something. They should have given you an admit the next day!

Hahah it got a little stressful! There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason as to how quick people are admitted, so no news means nothing really. Whether it's a rejection or acceptance it can come right after or weeks after, they don't take longer/shorter intentionally I don't think :)

Just completed my kira interview, I think it went pretty well. The questions were all really long and I only really anticipated one of them. Also, the first and second overlapped a lot so it was hard coming up with another concrete example. Overall I think I did well and most importantly I did not come off as robotic - which I think is key. Hopefully they call me for an interview at some point over the next week or two.

Hi All!

I submitted my application to DeGroote on April 18th, I then heard back from them on April 20th to provide a few additional scanned documents. I completed this on April 24th/waiting for the KIRA link to be sent still. Today, April 26th, I received the exact same email that I received on April 20th. I forwarded my original response back to DeGroote and explained how I had already received this email and am waiting to complete my KIRA interview...

I am aware they are receiving a high volume of applications and am just wondering if anyone else experienced issues with communication? Or waited a bit longer for the KIRA link.

Any info would be great! Thanks

Hi everybody, I received my interview invitation from DeGroote today. Should be interviewing in about 2 weeks. Just one question. It says that if I live outside of North America the interview will be done over Skype. I live in Montreal just 6-7 hours east of Hamilton. If anybody was in a similar situation where they lived not "too far" from Hamilton, were you expected to travel to McMaster?

Thank you,

Emilio
