alpmba fb group is official and held by ad com members. Once you approve your offer, they will send you the link. Also, there is not much going on in the fb group.

It’ll be great if I can get added to this group.

Are they still rolling out invites? Submitted video essay on 18/1. Still haven’t heard back

Same here! My Application status still shows "Submitted".

My status has been ‘Under Review’ for over a month (R2 applicant). Has anyone mailed the Adcom? Also does the portal let you know that you have been invited for interview or not?

Have you been interviewed?
Mine went through "Invited to interview" and only changed to "Under Review" a week after the interview. Also an R2 applicant.

No! Mine went from ‘Submitted’ to ‘Under Review’ a month back without any info about interview.

Anyone else had the same situation?

I emailed the Rotman Adcom and their response was:

"All is in order, we are just a little behind on our file review at this time with the volume of applications we have received during this time. You will hear back from us before the March 11th deadline, and I will follow up with my colleague assigned to your file to see where the review is at. If you have a competing offer from another institution set to expire before the March deadline, do let us know and I will further see if we can expedite the review process."

Okay great! That’s helpful. Thank you!

Hi guys,
I wanted to share some resources that I found useful in terms of preparing you for what to expect from your Rotman FTMBA experience once you've been admitted to the program. I am a current first year student and I love it here. Totally get what you guys are going through. I don't regret my Rotman experience at all. Feel free to share with others in your cohort!!

For those who are still waiting, BEST OF LUCK. For those who have been admitted, CONGRATS! And I hope to see you in-person in Toronto in the summer! Here are some of the resources:

https://medium.com/@perennialinternationalstudent Current Rotman FTMBA student, active blog so you can follow and request for specific content. Covers range of topics relevant to the international student experience
https://wondersuite.blogspot.com/ Covers many of the same topics, but not so up-to-date. More comprehensive.

Will update with more if I remember/find them. Just remember how stressed I was after admission because I couldn't envision what I was getting myself into, and wanted to share.

ONE LOVE

Hi, just got my Rotman interview invite and its scheduled for Wednesday March 9 with Richard Feliciano. Any wisdom/tips/do's/dont's to share?

Please send links to interview prep webinars or sessions I can join. TIA. 🙏🏼

Also is there an advantage in getting interviewed earlier? I have option between Mar 9th or Mar 18th and I am confused.

swebahjaved, hi rotman offers admission spots after interviews on a rolling basis so definitely an advantage to interview earlier than later.

Swebahjaved, I gave my interview to Richard Feliciano around 3 weeks ago. I have 5 years of consulting experience at McKinsey & Co. and applied to Rotman MBA program in R2.

Feel free to DM if you wanna chat!
