Hey Guys,

Sauder promises an admission decision of 8 weeks from submitting complete application.
However, I got mine after 10 weeks.

Did anyone else faced the same issue?

Hi,

Thank you for the update.

You got interview invitation after 10 weeks or final decision? Can you kindly tell me in which round you applied and when you have got interview invitation?

Thanks and regards,
Sarah.

I applied in R1. I got an interview invite at the end of 8th week. Final decision at about 10th week.

Hi Raagini,

Congratulations!

May I know when you have submitted the application? And when you received the interview call? And between the submission and interview call did you get any other mail or update or communication from the University?

All the best.

Regards,
Sarah.

Hi All,

Does any R2 applicant applied for a GMAT waiver? If so whether you got any update about the waiver approval (approved/not approved) or been invited for the interview?

Thank you!

Regards,
Sarah.

Thanks for the reply! Let's update this thread as and when we get some response from the school :thumbsup: . (And yes, I've also heard that Sauder is pretty slow with its application processing)

Do you guys think they will delay entrance this year as last year? The August 2020 was moved to Jan 2021...
Wondering as probably the pandemic will be more controlled on Jan 2022 with more vaccines circulating by that point..

Hey Sauder Applicants,

Sauder guarantees an admission decision within 8 weeks of application submission. However, my decision took way more time than that.

I have raised my concern with Sauder and requested an application fee refund. They have obliged with my request.
I believe that when students have a deadline to stick to, the colleges must also reciprocate the same.

If your decision is delayed as well, do raise your concern.

Wondering what kept them so long. Is the volume really that high? 🤔I am sure everyone is concerned about ROI given high possibility of online studying instead of coming to Vancouver...

Of course, the volume is high. But a majority of colleges did stick to their deadline. So, that is not a good excuse really.

But they will still consider your application right? You haven't withdrawn, I am assuming.
