Hey Soondoobu,
Thank you so much . Yes Im extremely happy as Fuqua has always been my top choice and I will be enrolling for sure.
So a little history here, I was waitlisted in R2 and I made sure I had something to update the admissions committee with periodically(I put in 5 waitlist updates).
I visited the campus in the first week of April and constantly kept in touch with Victoria Shuler by scheduling 1:1 during her office hours ( I met her 4 times in the past two months in total, kept her updated about my interst in Fuqua, about my work and anything that might add value to my application in general)..
As I felt that my GMAT score might have been the factor that got me waitlisted in the first place and as I have an extremely busy job, I took the Adcom advice from the waitlist webinar and completed the MBA math assignments (rather than giving the GMAT again )proactively and uploaded the unofficial transcript along with my final update. (Im guessing this was a major factor).
Last but not the least , I kept in touch with alumni and current students, and got a couple endorsements!
Are you waitlisted by Fuqua at the moment ?
Please let me know if I can help you in any way!
Hope this helps!
