Calling all ISB PGP Applicants - (2023 Intake) Class of 2024

Will the R1 waitlist be cleared with this round results?

As per the time that our computers are indicating, it’ll take about 8-9 hours to collate the result. So you can all check from 7 30pm onwards. Should be out after that only.

The waitlists in most scenarios will clear with round 3, unless it’s a very positive case where the waitlist is more inclined towards a positive side.

ISBpgpOfficial, can you also guide on the tentative timeline for R3 including R3-xmas applicants? A timeline update on the ISB website is still awaited

The R3 timelines are updated on the website: https://www.isb.edu/en/study-isb/post-g ... sions.html

Applicants who applied on R3-xmas and were interviewed on 4th and 5th Feb, will also get the results today?

Today only R2 results will be announced.

Is there a ballpark figure for the distribution of the number of acceptances spread across the 3 rounds for each of YLP, EEO and PGP applicantsISBpgpOfficial, ?

It would be great if you can give some timeline on waitlisted candidates as well. R1 Waitlisted candidates have been waiting for almost 3 months now. This is honestly very pathetic candidate experience. ISB seems to be treating the waitlisted candidates as their backup options right now.

For a top school their entire admission process needs improvement. Some people got interview invite on 20th Dec, some got it but without location, some got just 5 days before their interview date. Suddenly amidst all this chaos, R3 early invites start getting interviews.
Too much confusion.

So, no result for the R3 applicants who were interviewed along with R2?

I think we can cut ISB's ad-com some slack. The process has been far better than the chaos last year.

On top of that adcom team is just plain ignorant and irresponsive of every thing.

6.5 hours to go

*unresponsive

Have a heavy lunch , sleep tight and wake up to results. For those of us at work, let’s just stay anxious XD

Yes, last couple of years it was chaos, more so because of covid related complications. This year things are much much better..can they improve, absolutely. Comms is still not at the level that you’d expect the best b-school in the country to have, especially for WLs

At the same time you have to appreciate the sheer number of applications ISB gets every year, gets difficult to manage. Also, the applicant pool isn’t very patient either. One small information puts everyone in a spiral of anxiety and the worst unnecessary analysis! Those who are on other B-school groups can see the difference vs ISB in this regard.

Things are not perfect, they are getting better on all fronts. Let’s just focus on staying calm today. There are a lot more and bigger anxieties coming your way once you have an admit in place. The party’s just getting started. All the best folks

Good Luck Everyone
