Thanks for the reply but i do not see any email on this link and this too redirects to the link to create an enquiry which takes time. Also, do you have an idea if we need to submit our gmat score and if yes how ?

When you email (study@durham.ac.uk) them, you get a response recommending to create an enquiry. Emails do not get a quick response as compared to an enquiry (my experience). GMAT is not mandatory. In the online application, there is an option to submit your GMAT score. I sent you a private message with the email id of an admission personal.

Yes. Looks like it. How did the interview go? If you apply before the Application deadline for a particular stage, you will normally receive a response on or before the Decision by date. In some instances, it may be necessary for team to roll applications forward to the next round. - as per their website.
You must hear before 22/02/21 UK time.

I did hear from Durham -

"As you know, the round two application deadline was 25 January 2021. Unfortunately, we've not been able to issue you an offer on the occasion. However, in line with our staged admissions process, your application has been rolled over to round three and will be reconsidered before the next offer deadline of 19 April 2021."

I don't understand this. I submitted my application within the deadline and had an interview as well with the professor which went pretty well. Have they WL me? And if so, have they considered my interview performance or is it due to some miscommunication in my submission of application?

How about you? Did you hear from them?

It looks like a waitlist and you can expect to hear back from them again on or before April 19th. I agree that their wording is strange.

This year has been so so competitive. I just wonder if it was even worth putting all those efforts to get to 720.

And I am generally very truthful to my performances. My interview was actually very decent. It was very conversational and I didn't feel nervous even a bit. I and professor were literally having conversations on few of the strategies and case studies.

It's just the competition and being an Indian with a mediocre profile may be hurts a bit too. Nonetheless, I have Warwick and WHU to look for in the next week.

Wish everyone luck.

Don't worry, you shall hear soon as well. All the best!!
