Hi all,
Creating a thread for INSEAD January 2026 round 1 applicants so we can keep each other posted about the interview decisions from the adcom.
Has anyone gotten a response yet from the adcom about an interview, rejection or waitlist?
Cheers!

That's right, we can expect them starting from April.

Applicants often hear back regarding the interview invites approx. 3-4 weeks after application submission.

From official website: "Applications are reviewed on a rolling admissions process within each round. This means that the Interview and Final Decision deadlines you see on the website are the latest dates by which you would receive your decision." Good luck everyone!
