Calling all Rotman MBA Applicants: 2022 Intake [Class of 2024]

Yep

For awards and achievements three categories are given- professional, academic and community. Can someone suggest which category to choose for sporting awards won during undergrad.

RahulSha, Did you play it as a professional player or player in a university team ?

It will go under professional only if you played as a professional player

It should go under extracurricular ideally.

In a university team

yea but such a category is not given so I am confused.

I did not put it, I also played at dist. level but from my svchool’s team

I think the categories are very specific

Quick Debrief for fellow applicants:

paid today morning, the link came after 2 hours

was pretty seemless

practice qns from Kiratalent post of gmatclub, qns from there are getting repeated

Hi tyildirim92, mohammadfaraaz123

I submitted my complete application yesterday (including video essays + TWR + recommendations). I have a few outstanding questions and hoping if you can help me with the answers:

1) How much time does it generally time to hear back after the application is complete?
2) How do we get to know if we are not selected? Do we wait until the decision date to figure out automatically?
3) If shortlisted for the interviews, how much time do we get to prepare and schedule?

Thanks in advance

In the same boat as you are in!

I have just hit submit on the application and the video essays module.
When I go to application portal -> checklist item status, I'm getting the following:

• Reference 1 - Complete - Unreviewed
• Reference 2 - Complete - Unreviewed
• Official Transcript - Incomplete

Is this how it is supposed to look, correct?

Hi, kudos to all those who have applied to Rotman already!!

Can anyone post the types of video questions they asked?

Niyati801,Fyi: This is a really great thread for all of you looking for Kira/writter questions. I would also like to request you to share your questions on this thread as well. rotman-kira-video-essay-written-questions-336794.html

1)Depends on the volume of applications they have received but you can expect to hear within 2-3 weeks.
2)You will receive an email from them before the decision date if you have already applied. You shouldn’t have to wait this long.

3) tyildirim92, is the best person to answer this.

@MogammedFazaaz123 This Thread is amazing!!! Thank you so much.

It depends on your profile. If it is unique compared to the other applicants, they respond even in hours.

During your interview, they tell you when you will hear from them. Typically, 3 to 4 weeks.

The ad com member shares her/his calendar and you pick a slot for the interview. It's flexible, but don't exceed 10 days, otherwise the ad com member may think that you are not interested in that much.

Best of luck.

Hi! Is there any specific place on the Rotman application where I can show that I have passed 2 levels of CFA? Or are they supposed to infer that from my Resume?

On the academics page, there's a toggle under the GMAT/GRE and English Language Requirements to add professional certifications. I believe this should go in there

How much time on average they will take to call for an interview after submitting the video interview?

Guy I need some assistance. How far can we go when it comes to achievements? For instance, I have a significant achievement back from 2013. I really want to mention that. But I was in High school back then. Is it irrelevant or should I just go forward and mention it ?

Guys **

This is just my opinion so take it with a pinch of salt, I think general rule of thumb is to leave out things prior to university. It might be outdated and 2013 is a while ago. However, if it is something significant and especially if it’s something you’ve continued to date, I don’t think it’d be wrong to include it either

I understand. Thanks for your opinions.
