Congrats!! I have the same question on Scholarship. Nothing was mentioned in the mail as well as the links provided. Will the scholarship results come out separately? If yes, then by when?

Based on last year's thread, it sounded like they would send some info about that in the next 2 weeks....Wonder if anyone has emailed and asked the school?

Does anyone know if there will be another Welcome Weekend at a later date, besides the one in December? I don't know if they have a welcome weekend for each round of admitted applicants...Unfortunately, I can't attend the Dec Welcome Weekend. If there is a meet-up in the US, I'll definitely join :)

Based on the research I did, it depends on the class diversity and your profile. For eg., if there are many consultants in the existing pool, the odds are in favour of non-consultants. I spoke to my interviewer and she told me that waitlist means you meet the high bar of acceptance but there aren't enough places available right now for similar profile like yours. She herself was waitlisted at INSEAD but was eventually offered a place in Singapore campus. The best advice will be to reach out to admissions committee and ask if they can share any feedback on your profile and take it forward from there.
Hope that helps.. Fingers crossed.

What's the yield rate for round 1? Also total number offered vs those who enroll? I'm waitlisted so this is very important to know where I am. Thx.
