Hey everyone!

Welcome to the Fuqua forum! I am an incoming student, starting in July, and I had a ton of help from this forum when I was applying last year. I will be happy to help if you guys have any early questions on the application. Drop your questions here or send a PM. I won't guarantee prompt replies, with an impending move to another country, but I will try my best.

Happy applying!

Thank you! I have removed the deadlines of 2012 intake which appeared by mistake. I think deadlines for 2017 intake are not yet available, right?

Great to learn that kushagra10 Why won't you apply? As long as you can tell the school that how can you be a pertinent candidate to the Fuqua community, you are good to rock and roll! Please make sure that you apply in EA and take the chance to interview in person at the campus. This isn't mandatory but putting in your application early tells the admission committee that you are serious about the school especially when you are a 're applicant'. Also, make sure you tell them what difference have you created in last 6-9 months and how it has improved your candidature. This is really very important.

Let others key in their viewpoint as well.

That is why I specifically wrote-" Make sure you tell them what difference have you created in last 6-9 months and how it has improved your candidature. This is really very important."

Also, do you have any reason to believe something was lacking specifically in your application?

I understand what you are trying to convey here. But, just know that admission process is totally subjective. The application is checked in entirety and there are multiple reasons that are looked into. So, it'd be pretty difficult to comment unless we know more about your profile. I think anupamgupta2112 can shed some light here!
