It happens every year. It’s always more rejections.

But will be great to see some invites

Any other invites?

Getting several other interviews and acceptances. I think HSW in particular don’t take older people. Plenty of other T15s seem to.

That’s understandable to think that way. It’s just that it’s a game of options.

They want to create a class they see fit and I’m speculating that it’s mostly a game of options in many of the cases. They do admit people with higher work ex, just the number isn’t that high. With other programs the trade-offs don’t really give them as many options as HSW. (This is mostly speculative based on some facts disclosed by school and just the numbers)


Ultimately, don’t let the rejection bother you (easier said than done but rejections are easy to get over, just the pain of settling for less and not getting any value out of it... That is something you might want to avoid in the future)

Just got an update from the waitlist. HBS is requesting the "March Update" to actually be submitted by February 28th. No decisions will be made on the waitlist until after February 28th. The word limit is 400 words.

wow... Interesting. Not sure whether it is a good thing or bad. The updates are usually endless, sometimes stretching 3-4 months and people run out of anything meaningful with WL managers and emails demanding more content. It is hard, so maybe getting it over with is actually a good thing.

For those who got selected during Round 1 - what happens after the interview and the PIR? Does the final acceptance or rejection come at the decision date itself or are the individuals who are finally accepted post the interview told beforehand?

Interviewing R2 but HBS drops all decisions (admit, reject, waitlist) on the same day at the same time as a portal update. Same as what they do for interview invites.
R2 decision date is Mar 26 at 12:00 pm EST
