What is exact time for the application deadline tomorrow? Would it be 11:59 PM CET on Oct 07?

Also will it be okay if the recommenders submit over the next 2-3 days?

Also, regarding the recommendations:

Ideally, schools like it if they get all the application details by the deadline but since recommendations are not in your hand, schools are a bit lenient on when they receive them. So, you can try to reach out to the school and see because each school has its own policy on this

In Past rounds, RSM encouraged applicants to send application without recommendations but applicnats can send later with certain period. I do not know about this round. Time is tight.

Hi everyone,

Yesterday I applied to RSM and today I got an email stating that I am invited to the next phase of the admission process. Does this mean that my admission now depends only on the Kira assessment and the official interview? or Can my application still weaken my chances of being admitted? (my GPA is not high 14.95/20)

Regards,
Delmer

Hello! Have you taken/started the Harvard Business publishing coursework? If so, which particular topics do they cover and how easy/hard is it to study?

Sleepygal

Hi all,

I got offered conditional admit and need to submit my GMAT/GRE score or take Harvard Business publishing coursework. And along with the mail they sent offer letter mentioning that I need to register for program and send admission fee by October 1st.

-Does this mean my score in the test is not going to be a factor in my admission?
-Also can someone tell me about the HBP coursework?
-Lastly, can I ask them to waive the test requirement based on academic performance? When I had spoken to Adcom back in June I was told I would not need to submit the score.

Thanks!

My recommender has checked if it will be useful to add a detailed letter in addition to the questions asked for RSM since there is a space constraint of 375 characters. Will it be worth their efforts to attach a separate 1 page letter along with the questions asked?

Hello Everyone,

I have been a quiet observer of the discussion ever-since I decided to pursue an MBA from RSM.

Just today, I have received a conditional admit with a scholarship for the International Full-time MBA and would like to thank all of you for the help!

I wanted to reach out and ask if anyone of you has decided to give or already given the HBP coursework. What is the level of difficulty? Should I prepare a bit before even enrolling in the coursework?

Cheers,
Utsav

Congrats AnandMan

My advice to you is to connect with FB page and focus on visa processing and also to secure housing before starting.

Good luck

I completed the HBP coursework recently. The level of difficulty is average - if you follow the coursework given properly you'll ace the test. You don't need to prepare even a bit before enrolling because you can access the coursework any time - you can log on and off however many times you'd like. I would also like to mention that the test itself is open book and it is also untimed. While doing the test, you can go back to the slides that teach you about the course to remember things you've studied. For example, I did the coursework and test over 2 weeks at my own time. If you have any questions you can PM me.

I don't thing anyone can answer you this question right, it surely depends from the pool. But jus to know this year the average gmat score for masters fall. Rotterdam accepted me with just 610 for a Msc in Finance and Investments

Hi Guys!

I got Kira interview invite today, and I applied in R2.

Could someone please tell me if I will be getting the interview invite after I pass my Kira assessment?

I have seen replies in this group where people mentioned that they received both Kira assessment and their interviews together.

Thanks in advance!
