Woah! That was quick! I know people who have applied mid-July in time for the August 4th deadline and haven't heard yet. I myself applied by the August 4th deadline and recieved a mail from AdCom saying that the admissions process is going to take longer than usual because of the high number of applicantst this year. 12 days now since the deadline and still waiting to hear back.

Anyone else on here who has applied for R4? Would love to know if you've heard back from RSM

just got admitted for the 2021 jan intake via email with scholarship. But I have been requested to sign the agreement and pay the non-refundable 5000 euros admission fee by no later than 20th sep (20 days later) as indicated in the offer letter. Anyone know that if i could negotiate with the adcom to extend the deposit deadline? i am waiting for other school's feedback.

Hello!
I received an email yesterday that I got an admit offer from RSM with a 4000 EUR scholarship as well. I applied prior to the Aug 14 deadline and was interviewed last week. But given my financial situation, might be difficult to get a loan or raise enough money for tuition.

Just worried that if I don't accept this that I might not be able to get another offer from other schools.
Would it be possible to defer my admission or do I have to pay the deposit?

Hi,
Congrats for the acceptance.

My advice is call admission directly by phone not email and describe your situation clearly. They are considerate people in RSM. But in general for any MBA program, you might lose the scholarship. But ask them if you pay the deposit this year, would they freeze the tuition of this year. This might prevent you from any increase in the coming year.

Good luck

Hey everyone,

I wanted to apply to RSM but I'm not sure if the October deadline is available for international students? Can anyone clarify?
Also, Since it is so late, are my chances of receiving any scholarship marred?

Please let me know.
Thanks!

U can apply but notice 2 things:
1- You will be in hurry for visa processing, if admitted

2- the scholarship may be less but won't be marred (this is my direct experience in October application)

Hope it helps
