Hi, if my referee submits the LOR after the Round 1 deadline, does that mean I will be considered for Round 2 instead of 1?

I don't think so. B-schools are a bit lenient when it comes to recommenders. You can rest easy :)

Technically yes!

BTW, Rotman has rolling admissions, so you can either confirm from the school or stay put and wait!

I have submitted my application. I don't see any tick mark against supplementary materials. I am yet to request Official scored from GMAT to be sent to the school and my undergraduate university needs to send official transcripts. Is my application complete before the deadline. What else should I do?

If you were able to do the payment then your application was complete. Official GMAT score and University transcripts have to be sent before the admission confirmation. They have no bearing on the completion of your application.

Btw, at what time did you complete the application. I've a sense I was the last one to submit :D

Could you please tell us how long did it take for the adcom to revert?

Also, can you share your basic profile info? Work experience, GMAT score and education background?

Thanks man, I hope you're right! My only big disadvantage seems to be that I am over-experienced (7 years). *sigh*
VijayDinanathChauhan I'll write a detailed review with my profile if I get through - no point otherwise. Still, since you asked - I would say the differentiator in my profile will always be my extracurriculars which are pretty unique and would differentiate me in the spark factor essay from anyone else. The chance to share photos also plays to my benefit as I am a professional photographer. Weakest points - too many years of experience and a lower GMAT score.

GoodGuy - I think 55555Raj is talking about the person who reviewed his/her application.

55555Raj - Last year at one of the MBA fairs, I had spoken to one of the members from the Rotman admission team. She told us that till 9 years of work experience, you're good to go. So with 7 years, i am sure you shouldn't face any problems.

However, she also made it clear that it was not necessary that people with 9+ years will not be considered. Its just a tad bit more difficult :)

Hope that helps!

Hey guys. I'm a current student at the Rotman School of Management pursuing my full time MBA (class of 2020). Feel free to ask me any questions you would have about the MBA program at Rotman and I'll try my best to answer all your questions as and when I get some spare time from coursework.

Also, please avoid asking questions regarding profile evaluations as the admissions team will be the best source of information for determining fit for the program (just shoot them an email!). However, if you want to know anything specific about the program or school, I'll be glad to help you out with it. Cheers!

Just adding to it (the above post), a member of the Rotman Admission Team mentioned that 3-5 years of WE is considered a 'sweet spot' by many. However, those figures don't indicate exclusion or inclusion of any candidate because of WE. This information basis 22 Sep MBA Fair in Mumbai. Hope it helps. For those with concerns of their work ex., I would say that atleast prepare your application and 'show up' - otherwise you'll only keep guessing as to what could've been perhaps ? :)

Thanks!

Funny, because on 24th September Bangalore event it was almost a warning to everyone that more experience may be a problem.

"May Be". Same was said then, but just from personal experience, I feel that if one feels highly suitable and can prepare the right pitch then then he/she should atleast apply. At the most they may reject you or offer a seat for their 1yr program :)

Hi,

I was one of the last candidates to submit the application before the R1 deadline. Haven't heard anything post that. It will help if someone can share tentatively by when we can expect to hear from the admissions team and what is the whole interview process.

1. If shortlisted for interview then how much time does Rotman give for preparation?

2. For Indian applicants, interviews are conducted in-person or through Skype?

3. How are you guys preparing for the interview?

Looking to forward to hear from the community!
