Tepper application asks for 12 font size Resume. Is it mandatory or suggested?
It’s mandatory, i am reapplicant, and they are very strict in this case.

Tepper is asking for contact details of HR. Is it mandatory field? I don't want my company HR to know about my MBA dreams yet. Is there any way possible to avoid it?

Using a 12-point font size for your resume when applying to Tepper is mandatory.
In the recent adcom admission event, they did not mention it as mandatory...more of a suggestion to keep everything readable
Also, they stressed more on the fact in the app itself that each position needs to have month+year

Do we need to title the essay as - main essay / optional essay in the doc ?
Will that count to the total word count?
What about essay title?

Can someone please tell me if I should send them an email with the same essay with a 12-point font, or just be ok with the fact of submitting an 11-point font?

After having completed the ’chart your path’ series and attending an adm event in which they mentioned that attendees will be receiving fee waiver - my status after submission still shows app fee due...
Any one else in the same boat knows any next steps to take to get the waiver before R1 deadline in a few hours?

It says 12 point font is just fine... it’s not mandatory right?

Posted from my mobile device
I’m not sure if it’s mandatory, but I would keep the font size 12 if it is mentioned
I think the same but I want to keep the font 13

i have the same issue and i’ve sent an email to adcom.

after you complete the chart your path, the email will mention that if you are instructed to pay the fee, you can use your email address as the Tartan Code to waive the fee, but I am unsure where to input this code since there doesn’t seem to be a field for it at checkout. lets wait and see what the adcom says

Once you complete the process, the last email from Tepper confirms about app fee waiver and at the time of submitting the application, your app fee will be waived. Yesterday I have submitted my application with fee waiver.
