Hi Experts,

On HEC website I see that they have now a started rolling admissions process . I am confused with the dates posted here.

Regardlessly, I am appearing for GMAT in October last week. The test timeline eventually pushes my application to Dec'19. Considering the schorlarships offered, would it be beneficial to apply for Sept 2020 or wait and apply early for Jan 2021.

Thanks

Hi,
Both of the information that you saw on the HEC website and in the post above are true. HEC has a rolling process. HEC has 4 deadlines from August to November for 'September intake' and January to November for 'January Intake'. You have to decide which intake you want. You will give the GMAT in October last week and 'Jan 2021' intake would be best for you (application starting from Jan 2020). Scholarship offers are not fixed in relation to the rounds but it's recommended to apply early to have more chance of having it. Also, you will have enough time to manage things such as Visa process, accommodation, serving notice period, etc.

Hi All,

Had a query regarding the dual/joint degree with partner university option on application.
Will this option require me to apply separately for the other university?

Thanks in advance!

Hey!

I applied for Sep 2020 and had my two interviews (alumni in Argentina). Waiting for the final decision! Interviews were pretty informal, common questions, with the presentation being done in the middle of our talk.

Good luck everyone

Thanks! Sure. The interviewers asked me: Why MBA; which schools and why HEC first; my contributions to class; my main achievements; my failures; how will I finance the MBA

About the presentation (I talked about an experience in an NGO) they asked me the reasons why I volunteered and what were my contributions there.

Congrats!

In my case interviews were pretty informal, with alumni. Basic questions: why mba, why hec, strenghts, achievements, how to fund it... and my presentation was about an experience I had in an NGO (I heard other candidates that presented about new tech in their industries, their vacations, some interesting facts about a hobby)

Good luck!
