NumaNuma · Answer

Hi Everyone,

I am applying to the weekend program at Haas. Can anyone share their experience with the video interview?

Thanks

yushi84 · Answer

Hi! I just did it and from the debriefs I prepared for Why HAAS and why MBA, my question was "what do you hope to get out of MBA and why is HAAS a good fit" something along these terms.
Second question, I prepared for leadership related questions and teamwork related questions, and even DEI, but got the question - what have you read recently/what have you watched recently and to talk about that, I didn't expect this question, so I'm actually thinking the 2nd question might be more randomized, second question definitely tested me on my quick thinking skills lol

Good luck!

NumaNuma · Answer

Thanks for sharing. That helps a lot. They did change the prompt for the video interview question this year. I’m surprised they asked such a generic question.

Are there any applicants awaiting R2 decision or any waitlisted candidates from R1? Candidates accepted in R1, how and when did you learn about the decision?

passion4MBA · Answer

Anyone who was admitted or waitlisted for R1 or R2, when did you hear back from the admission committee?

CO2026Hopeful · Answer

Did anyone else apply Round 3 or 4 waiting to hear back next week?

Finch300 · Answer

Nope I applied in round 3 and still waiting, I guess HAAS updates all application status in Bulk on the decision day (May 23rd) or may be a day earlier

CO2026Hopeful · Answer

Right, the website says decisions will be released on May 23rd. I'm just curious who else is waiting to hear back in the meantime! From past years, it looks like the status will update in the website (unlike calls for FTMBA students?)

passion4MBA · Answer

Applied in R3 and waiting for decision on May 23rd

CO2026Hopeful · Answer

Good luck today everyone ☺️

REGuy2024 · Answer

Hi there,

This appears to be the defacto 2024 intake thread for EWMBA. I’m applying in round 3 and wanted to see if anyone else from the first couple rounds can chime in on admit status, stats, and scholarships?

Thanks!
