Hi, Thanks for the response. I mentioned 16th because I finished my Kira interview on that date. But I get your point, deadline was 14th Jan

More importantly, the interview invite decision will be announced by 14th Feb for everyone? Or can applicants hear about their results earlier than that as well
So, those who have submitted application earlier can hear before as well. We have seen early applications receiving early interview invites 1 week prior to the decision notification date.


Calling all applicants who are looking forward to apply in the "January 2026 Intake".

Please feel free to take a look at this webinar.

Applicants often hear back regarding the interview invites approx. 3-4 weeks after submission. The rest shall also hear back soon. Good luck everyone!

What are the admission chances for a waitlisted candidate that hasn’t heard back on R1 and R2?

Amobnc If you are on the waitlist, you already have a strong profile. From what I can see in your bio, your GMAT might be one of the problems here. Since getting on the waitlist, have you shared any updates with the admissions office about how you are trying to improve certain aspects of your profile? Waitlisted candidates at INSEAD rarely get prioritized unless they show they are making efforts to improve. In your case, I hope the gap is in an area that can easily be worked upon.

I hope this old post of mine can give you some ideas-

Hey Amobnc ! We understand that being waitlisted can be tough, but it’s also a sign that you’re still in the running for your dream program! Stay positive and proactive, many candidates who stay engaged and continue to show their commitment ultimately succeed. Keep pushing forward, and remember, the journey isn’t over yet! You've got this!

Please feel free to take a look at this blog on the "Waitlisted Strategies: How to Navigate the Process". It will help you with the necessary tips and insights to increase your chances of success!

Here are some steps that the applicants can do, post a waitlist:
1. Try connecting with the WL officer incharge for details.
2. Write a supporting email to the WL officer in-charge. Include these points:
- How and why you were not able to present your 100% during the application
- Express that you are still very interested in the program, and how it will be a perfect platform to help you achieve your ST and LT Goals
- Mention how you have improved over the period, add few work promotions or new awards or achievements
- Connect with any current students (or alumni) of the program, mention their names and the best things they said about the program
3. Try to be in touch with the B-school in all possible ways (LinkedIn, email, online events)

All the very best!

The invites are being rolled out slowly, started from January end, can expect more soon, as still there's time. Good luck everyone!
