we are looking for a candidate who is unique, motivated, and more. During the application, you should be able to highlight your experience, academic performance, and more. We want someone who understands our program and is a good fit. - Eddie Asbie, Associate Director of Admissions and Financial Aid at Cornell. We look at your application holistically. While a weak undergraduate record can be a concern, we do look at your work experience and standardized scores as well. In the end, your application will be reviewed along with all other applications in the round. The stronger your application is overall the better. - Kim Szpiro, Assistant Director of Admissions and Financial Aid at Cornell. I chose Cornell for a few reasons. Firstly, I knew that a large part of the MBA experience was learning from your classmates and so to get the richest experience I'd want the most diverse class. I felt that Cornell offered the most diverse class between my choices. Secondly, I enjoy outdoor activities and Ithaca offers a great variety of fun activities to keep me active outside of the classroom. Lastly, from a personal point. My wife could not relocate with me to Ithaca and so we'll have to travel back and forth from each other's locations. She'll remain in the NYC area and so frequent trips back and forth from Ithaca were much easier than my other option (Tepper) - David, Current first year at Cornell Download full Cornell chat transcript here.. calling-all-johnson-cornell-applicants-2016-intake-class-of-200239-20.html#p1572119

Waiting.. A long weekend Posted from my mobile device

totally got what you're talkin about my minds runnin like a wild horse these days

Off the waitlist and status changed to schedule interview sometime a week or so ago .... 1 year MBA .... is anyone missing the schedule interview email ? I don't see it in my mailbox at all ... searched through all my emails ...

They took about 2 days to send me the email with interview info after status changed on website...

Any 2year MBA applicant heard back anything in some time? Are there any more seats left. I was interviewed but my status says under review since a long time. Posted from my mobile device

I had my interview in November 2015 and have been waitlisted since Dec 15th. Already sent 2 updates with volunteer work, international experience and promotion and a former manager sent an additional letter to Cornell. No news... Ding?
