For me the same for SIM, but i was told it's just an error and the application has been forwarded to the admission committee.

Have you checked the compass mailbox?

They gave me the same answer and said they will give me an answer next week. I think it has nothing to do with our applications, they probably just received a ton of applications with no GMAT and the system had technical issues.

Già, mine in primis.
I spent months preparing for it and they cancelled my test in Milan in March. I rescheduled for April but then the center was closed again. I feel without gmat it's even more difficult to get in and you will not be admitted unless you have really spectacular grades/experiences/motivations.

I had it cancelled twice like you in Milan, but I managed to take the online exam on 20 April and got my results just in time on 28 April. Let’s see how it goes

I talked to the University as soon as the got GMAT cancelled - I live in Spain - and they told me that your GPA will be weighted at 60%. Previously, the GMAT was weighted at 30% and the GPA at 30%. Clearly, better grades mean higher chances of getting enrolled, provided that no GMAT is submitted.

I applied after mine was cancelled for the second time before knowing i could take it online. Oh, thank you leftstories. I wonder about the changes in SIM instead. I feel the grades and essay will be valued more. Anyway good luck to everyone and hope to meet there in September!

Congrats to all admits! It may be good if someone takes lead and starts a chat group for MBF admits in GMAT Club chat. https://gmatclub.com/forum/mchat.php

I have been admitted with no interview. I did not even know they made interviews to be honest. Can anyone confirm to have had my same experience?

Hi everyone, I will apply this year, maybe November. Can someone share your profile so I can get an idea of how to be 100% ready for the application?

My background is quite strange, so I do not know if it helps. Anyway, I applied with:
- joint bachelor and master of arts in Law from Bocconi (Gpa equivalent 3.66/4.00)
- GMAT 750
- Exchange Program at Fordham (New York, US)
- no University associations
- few months of working experience in an international insurance firm legal department.
- I am 25 and I think I made a decisive essay where I explained why I wanted to apply there for finance despite my background
