Well just a few days before the big news. I choose Singapore.
Good luck to R2 applicants and have fun with that video interview! At least you guys now have some insight from us!

Hey everyone,

I've been following this thread for a while and thought it's high time I make my first post. It's so nice to know that other people are suffering with the wait as much as I am and panicking at the sight of the INSEAD newsletter!

There are a few other schools I've applied to but I think INSEAD would be the absolutely best fit for me and I'd love to start in Singapore

Does anyone know if the decisions are announced at the same time for everyone on the 25th? Or can it also come in a bit early?

Welcome to all newcomers !!!!

It seems that it is the same process as during the call for interviews. you are notified between 21th and 25th.
I bet fredrust89 and I will be the last to be call (as it was for interview :-) )

Hi everyone, as with a lot of people, I have been stalking this group/thread for a while :-)

To those awaiting final decisions, I wish you all the best

To those like me who will be saying "submitted" on this day in 2 weeks time (R2 deadline) , all the best in crossing those T's and dotting those i's

PS - The news of 60% increase in applications is not the kind of news we want to hear... ha ha

Welcome newcomers :), and good luck to you R2s, we will be the ones lurking you soon hopefully :)!! The 60% news is indeed not good. We can also add the FT ranking effect to that. Would be interesting to know the number of applicants at INSEAD, but it seems the school doesn't disclose.

If you haven't seen this already, here is some reading to keep you dreaming and waiting :) : https://poetsandquants.com/2016/10/12/insead-dean-talks-b-schools-past-present-future/

Judging by what is said in previous years' posts, I would say that we can start hearing news from next Wednesday. Fingers crossed!
