They periodically review the waitlist along with the applications of next round. But since many are kept on waitlist, not very hopeful

This is mainly because of the new financial times ranking. They are evaluating applications after the revised ranking

Okay. But since we are waitlisted, I guess they do find our profile interesting.

Have you sent any mail to the AdCom or the Admissions Director regarding this yet?

Or anyone else here who got waitlisted as well? - Ray503 advd39

­i just got finished with my interveiw with Donna , interview was good, no behavirial questions was asked, evrything went smoothly until the last minute , where she gave a disclaimer that seats are limited in march now, and they have alot of other canidates left to interact with, and that i might be kept on waitlist, and not to be disheartened, if it happened.   Although it does not feel good to hear, but ican understand there point of view as well, and seeing the same responses from other indians here boost some confidence, that i am not only one getting this type of reposne in the end.   As for now anything is better than outright rejection. Hoping to get a admit response and not ( waitlisted/ rejected).

I will update once i get a response.

Glad to hear that your interview went well Arnav, hope you get a positive response. Did you ask any follow-up questions about that? Like how are the waitlists managed? Nothing as such was mentioned during my interview though.

Up till now, I have heard mostly optimistic things about ESADE's waitlisting procedure, but what concerns me is that I know a few folks from India who even got in the last round a couple of years back. So it's confusing why there are such high chances of waitlists in these early rounds.

AgoshB i did not asked anything from my side regarding waitlist procedure ( because i have not even been waitlisted yet), although she mentioned that there are very limited seats left, and from the way she was speaking i felt like applying in feb and march is not early ( i also previously thought that only).

Blair15 Interview experience was really great and friendly, and no out of the way curved-ball questions were asked, she already knew about my profile, only basic questions were asked, like tell me about yourself, why mba , why esade.

If someone in this forum has been accepted into the ESADE FTMBA program in Round 3, please share your interview experience.

I got an acceptance confirmation today. Had applied around the 3rd round.
My interview went well. Quite conversational. Only two questions were asked - Why MBA? And Why Esade?
It was a very easygoing interview, maybe since I had met Donna as part of the meet and greet held in Mumbai.

Congratulations Devika! That's amazing! Were you waitlisted initially, or are you receiving your result today itself?

My interview experience was similar, but I assumed that fewer questions meant something might be wrong and ended up talking a lot :P Probably not the best strategy

Thank you! I received my result today itself. Yeah I was a little scared too coz the interview was more like a chat.
I wonder when they respond on scholarships though.
