Calling all Schulich MBA Applicants: [Sep 2021 Intake] Class of 2023

Okay, thank you for the information. I almost thought I'd be dinged without an interview since its been so long.

Anyone know when the school would update those eligible to be accepted? Been a few days already since the Oct 29 round 1 deadline

Are you a domestic or international applicant?

From last year's decision tracker, I see a few admissions decisions reported in the first half of December. So, I am guessing it would be around that timeline.

PrafulKashyap Do you know more about this?

According to last year trend they started rolling interview invites after 10days(approx) from the deadline. So we can expect anytime soon from the school

Hey guys, I don't know if the timeline is different for the Master of Finance program (it probably is because there are fewer applicants than the MBA), but I got an interview for the MF program on the 29th of October, 1 day after I submitted my application

"Applications will be reviewed following each round deadline. The usual turnaround time for MBA applications is 4-6 weeks from the deadline"

This is the update I got from Schulich's admission team.

Anyone opted for Schulich India program?

Hi everyone...

I am a deferral candidate, had to move my admission to Sep2021.
So incase anyone needs some help, feel free to connect....

I am also creating a dedicated chat room for Sep 2021 Intake

I see at least one interview invite on the decision tracker

True. That means they have started sending admissions interview invitations.

I am seeing another interview invite on the decision tracker by someone in India

Since the interviews are starting soon, here is what I personally found important

1) You need to have a plan for your MBA. Yes it can change, no one will deny that. But you cannot say I will see where I can fit in the program and then plan my post MBA goals... Generally the best is to have a 70% concreat plan and then 30% flexibility with relevant unknowns.
2) MBA program should be a must for career plan. If there are alternate ways to reach your post MBA goals then you plan is weak. And then fit in Canada and then Schulich. Why Schulich is probably the most important question.
3) Know your strengths and weakness. Your strengths should be relevant to your career plan. And your weekness should be something that can be easily covered during the MBA program.
4) Try to add as many different stories as you can. Don't repeat stories. Tell them about another time.
5) Have some out of the application interesting facts about you to share.
6) Do your Schulich research... Read why Schulich is famous... What is known for... Some of the most recent developments... Such as Digital Mainstreet

The basic aim is to make the interviewer feel that he/she can go out on a coffee chat with you.

Hope this helps.

I had submitted the online application before the round 1 deadline along with all required documents. After submission, the 'unofficial transcripts' and 'Application Complete Pending Official Documents' sections were also marked checked/completed. Recently, when I visited the online portal, I saw that these two sections have been marked unchecked. Did someone else face this issue too? I have already uploaded the unofficial transcripts on the portal. Please share potential reasons for this. Thanks in advance.

the documents might be illegible or the file might be corrupted. Reach out to them through the given email on the application page. Good luck.

Guys, Did anyone from R1 get an interview call yet? Do you know when they might send invites?

Yeah I had my interview last Wednesday. They start rolling out invites 2 weeks after the round deadline so you can expect an invite anytime soon.

When did you submit your app? And those who have received the interview invite did you guys say yes to being considered for the Schulich India program?
