I don’t think waitlist is the endgame. Maybe the ball isn’t in your court, but you still hold the cards. Good Luck!

Does no reply mean waitlist or is there any mail confirming the same?

Thank you for the good words buddy. I’m unsure how to pick myself up and work on my rest of the applications, NUS was my top pick and a WL (that almost never converts) has shattered my confidence for the upcoming applications. I guess I’ll just have tp take some time off to clear my head. Would appreciate any suggestions on coping with this.

I hope so man, though I am not really sure if a WL ever converts into an admit. The way I understand WL works for a like to like replacement, that is, ONLY IF, someone with my profile type doesn’t take up their offered seat, I shall be given a chance. And I don’t know if or when would anything like that happen.

Sidenote: I may be completely wrong in my understanding of how WL works, in that case I would really appreciate to be corrected.


Hi - You are partially correct in your understanding but its not only the profile. Factors like what diversity you getting in the cohort, which country you coming from also add up. Clearance on WL continues till April end/ May 1st week. I was also initially waitlisted after round 2 (last year) but then go a convert/ admit after 2 months. Later i did defer it to 2023 admissions. So dont lose hope, it will pave out if your application is well acknowledged by NUS. Regards - Ankit

Hi,
Hope everyone is doing well!

I had a small query.
Would you be able to advice me on how to convert Indian college graduation percentage to GPA as required in the application form?

Thanks

You don’t have to convert it. The field isn’t mandatory and they do understand there is no standard for conversion. Your transcripts will help them evaluate your undergrad

Hey - I too was interviewed on 14th. Waiting for the result. I think it’ll be out by 11th Jan latest (considering the interview invite was also delayed by about 1.5-2weeks)
