Does the admission process mandate two interviews? Can a decision be made with only one interview also?

I have heard that there are 2 interviews for Indian and Chinese candidates(Other nationalities such as Pak, Bangladesh etc. included) untiland unless one has a really impressive profile.

Folks,
One of my referees called me and asked she was asked to answer a few questions by the college, and there was also the option of submitting a report. It apparently was not very clear about whether she needed to do both, or it's either questions or the report(one of them). Would anyone here know?

They need to fill in just one of them. Either submit the letter or fill in each questions separately. Since my referees didn't have much time, they just submitted the letter.

Hey guys,
Do we have to do anything extra for the Double degree program or just the normal NUS application will do?

Thanks

Hi Paras237,

I submitted my application to the MBA-MPP program a couple of days ago, and I was told that all we have have to do is select the double degree program we want to apply to in the list of the options for courses when filling out the form. Hope this helps.All the best.

Thanks. I appreciate that. I was concerned because I read on the internet that for double degree programs one has to get an admit from both the universities.

Same boat. Got an email this morning. Hadn't done well in the second interview so not surprised. A bit dejected however.

Hi everyone

I am planning to apply for NUS and already have an admit for ISB, where session starts in April.
I want to know how much time NUS take to decide on admit/scholarships, so that I can plan accordingly.
Can I expect a decision from NUS before April, if I apply this week ?

Hey
I think if you apply before 31st...you have a fair chance of getting a decision before April
In any case, they are quite considerate and if you tell them specifically during the interview they might send you a decision early

Hi Guys,
I had my Preliminary Interview on Wednesday 17th Jan. Today I have received a mail mentioning that my application has been "Waitlisted(Interviewed)" and that they would review my application again at a later stage.

Has anyone been Waitlisted after the preliminary interview itself? Also, as they have mentioned "Waitlisted(Interviewed)", if they do call me again, would it be for the second interview or the final result?

Thanks,
Ankit
