In each essay, we want to hear your genuine voice. Think carefully about your values, passions, aims, and dreams. There is no “right answer” to these questions — the best answer is the one that is truest for you. Essay A: What matters most to you, and why? For this essay, we would like you to reflect deeply and write from the heart. Once you’ve identified what matters most to you, help us understand why. You might consider, for example, what makes this so important to you? What people, insights, or experiences have shaped your perspectives? Essay B: Why Stanford? Describe your aspirations and how your Stanford GSB experience will help you realize them. If you are applying to both the MBA and MSx programs, use Essay B to address your interest in both programs.

Last year they sent out invitations until mid November according to ClearAdmit. They also stated about the timeline in their email: "As promised, we began issuing interview invitations in late September and will continue through mid-November. Interview invitations will be sent via email. If you have not received an interview invitation by mid-November, you will not be admitted."

I have studied from Delhi University and a Chartered Accountant in India. Is there a need for TOEFL or any letter from institution for confirmation on english proficiency?

I saw this everywhere. From the application requirements section: if the mode of instruction from your institution was English or so the transcripts say, then you need not require an IELTS/TOEFL. I believe UCLA/UC Berkeley were the only two in top 15-20 that ask for it.

UC Berkeley can waive - u just gotta ask

Thanks for letting me know. They didn’t back in the day and were pretty petty about it but it’s good that some sense got knocked into them.

Is there still hope for Round 1 interview invites ?

Honestly once next week hits Set your expectations to 0

When applying to HBS & Stanford, it’s best to keep your expectations to zero. (Although there are some profiles that I see and tell are Stanford personality but it’s once in a blue 🔵 moon 🌚) Yet to see a Harvard Personality though. Oh yeah, that reminds me, if any of you is applying to Harvard in R2 this year, MBA Conquerors is creating a 4.0 just for Harvard given it’s deviation from traditional application process. Under that we’re taking a select few candidate in our feedback group and take their opinions on the experience and they get the MBA Conquerors services + Harvard add-ons free. People will say, "Hey! So does Stanford!! It deviates from the norm too!" Right back at ya, and way ahead, conducted that last year already and we have a 3.0 (Stanford Studs- for the changemakers!!) already running (this one is paid though). Helps when you have personal affiliation. Let me know if anyone’s willing to join, we still have slots until 20th Nov! Pretty much how we started 1.0 when I was a moderator here.
