Hi guys!

I got the admit from Rotman today with entrance awards. Over the moon to get the news today.

My advice would be to make efforts to get in touch with the admissions committee. I recall reading an article from one of the adcoms where they specifically said that the application process is a lot like dating. You need to make efforts to show your interest and the the strengths of your candidacy for the program. And obviously, know the program more than just the website.

All the best to those awaiting admits!

Not quite sure what the question means but I understand you want to know the approach with Quants?
Well, I didn’t have a fixed approach per se and had already appeared for some other standardised tests in the last 4 years which gave me enough time to grasp the topics. But one thing that did help me was maintaining a serious error log and reviewing it diligently. That helped me a lot and I am sure there are a lot of folks who’d echo that.

Hi Jalaj
Congrats on getting the admit. Could you provide a brief on your profile containing your work experience and other factors. Also if you could elaborate on the interview process

Thanks

Can R1 applicants shine some light on what kind of questions were there in the KIRA interview?

From my experience with Schulich, the interview questions and the practice questions were widely different!

Thanks,
Aditya

After setting up an account for Kira interview, you can practice as many times as you’d like. Once clicking the final step, you will be prompted to the real written essay and video.

The video questions are quite random. They’ll ask you 2-3 questions. Mine I got “How do you think your colleagues would remember you when you leave for an MBA”

So, I have been waitlisted by Rotman at the end of round 1. I have been able to improve my GMAT score and want to update the adcom about it. Any suggestions on how to proceed?

Thanks!

Shoot an email to your interviewer with new score report. I also retook my English test and update it through email to the adcom after interview day.

Waitlisting usually means they are on the edge about your profile. If I were in your situation, I would try to connect with current students to understand what Rotman is all about, and with the admissions team once in a while to continue to show my interest. It can't hurt unless you really overdo it. And of course, share your updated GMAT score, along with your keen interest.

Anyone have an idea of what the turnaround time would be for Rotman for an app submitted on the deadline Jan 13th? Around what date could one expect to receive the following:

- Interview request
- Accept/Reject/Waitlist decision
- Deadline to submit deposit

Any insight from people who submitted R1 or last year on these timelines would be awesome.

Hi iv got a problem in my application.
In the diversity and inclusion survey section, I had mentioned all the details but on submitting the application, for all the sections it says I choose not to answer.
Will this create a problem for me?
Should I send an email to the adcom stating this problem?
The remaining application is all ok

If so , how?

Does the MBA tour help with that?

I attended one a while ago and Rotman was present

Not that I am aware of. I don't think Rotman requires waivers, they are one of the most in demand college right now.

Rotman does not offer fee waivers based on attendance at the MBA Tour. The colleges offering waivers send emails specifying the same post the event.
