Hey Codedlord,


Surprisingly no.

I was told that it will be out by the end of the week for sure.
Now hopefully in the first week of Jan 2020.

This is too confusing!

sj24,
That is super weird and unnerving. The school official reopens on Jan 03, I doubt anything can/will be done until the following week. Sending interview invites 9 weeks after application deadline is not the best way the school wants to protray itself. But one can only wait

Hi Ishan95

Given that you received your admit could you detail a bit on your profile(work experience, fields, GMAT score etc)
Also how was your interview experience?

I second that.
I am more than surprised by this.
They must have their reasons, I guess.
Let's see, what the new year brings!

Hey,

As you have already noticed, I have shared some details on my profile and work experience. I've worked primarily in the marketing industry in very different roles. I have a 700 GMAT.

To answer your question on my interview experience, it was very conversational but at the same time very professional. In your interview you will have the opportunity to talk about all your experiences in detail. I think as long as you genuinely believe that this is the right school for you and if that desire to join comes across as authentic, you should be fine.

Hey sj24,

I'm sorry to hear that. It must hurt.

When did they email you?
Did you apply anywhere else?

Hey, first of all, apologies for the late reply and happy holidays!
I got an email on 23rd evening IST time.

I have an admit from Schulich and from a couple of schools from the US.

How about you?
Did you hear back from McGill?

Seriously is McGill even interested in having a 2022 MBA Batch? Cause it sure does not seem that way.

Hi everyone,
I need some advice...

Although I have completed my side of the checklist, one of my recommenders has still not uploaded their letter and therefore I think my application is still listed as incomplete.

Does anyone know if there's a grace period for recommenders to send in their letters? Most schools usually allow for an extra week?

Hoping I don't get pushed into R3 because of this.

If you can shed some light - that would be so helpful.
Thank you!

To all my dear friends striving to get into Desautels. I meant to be more active here but I've been busy over the holidays. I'd like to follow up sj24 I am sorry you didn't get in, but Schulich is still a good school and has an amazing reputation in Canada if that's where you want to be. abhishekbansal14 be assured that McGill is very actively forming it's class of 2022, but also understand McGill is actively changing it's program to make sure it remains competitive and unique. McGill is a smaller program then some of you major schools which means they are not looking for someone that checks the boxes but someone that rounds out the program, I hope you'll get in but if you don't it doesn't necessarily speak to your quality as an applicant.
mba2019girl McGill is a rolling admissions program if once you're application is complete they'll begin to process it. I know they have rounds on the website but that's more guidelines than anything. I hope you get in and get to meet you in August.

Good luck to all who applied in R2! Since Desautels has rolling admissions, many of you may already have received interview decisions, right?

Hi everyone! Just wanted to come back here to check if anyone else has heard back from McGill with good news? Interview invites/admits should be rolling out now that the holiday season is over.

Hello there, I applied for Desautels fall 2020 intake on 4th January (R2). Took some time to complete all the items from the checklist. Haven't heard back anything yet. The status of my application still shows as 'Submitted' on their applicant login. Can someone, who applied in R1 and got the call for an interview, share the timelines of the events?

So I submitted Sept 18, I had a phone call with recruiter Oct 7 I had my interview Nov 8 and I found out Dec 2. I think mine was extreme because I submitted so early. The end of round one was Nov 1. Also they are undergoing certain restructuring so sometimes it takes a little longer. Hope to see you august 2020

Between those schools I'd say it depends where you want to live.
