Rejected at Anderson but my letter said to get in touch with the FEMBA admissions group to consider part time. Does everyone rejected get this paragraph?
Rejected as well. Here is the paragraph regarding FEMBA in my status update:

"Based on the strength of your work experience and other credentials, I would like to share your application with my colleagues in our Fully Employed MBA (FEMBA) Program. If you have ever considered working while pursuing your education, FEMBA is a highly-ranked option offering the same faculty, courses, and UCLA Anderson MBA degree. My colleagues from FEMBA will be in touch very soon to explore this possibility with you."


I'm guessing this FEMBA goes out to everyone then. Oh well.

Got waitlisted in R2.

Anyone in the same boat? I see a specific thread for waitlist candidates but not much traction there: https://gmatclub.com/forum/ucla-anderso ... 55719.html

Would like to know how others approached this and if anyone was able to successfully convert to an admit.

Congrats to those who got it! And all the best to everyone!

Hey Agadodia, I'm with you - waitlisted in R2. From what I've been able to gather the waitlist acceptance rate at Anderson may be a little higher than other programs, although waitlist acceptance rates are not particularly encouraging overall. None of the schools seem to be willing to share any stats (I sat in on a Haas waitlist admissions chat this morning), so we're left trying to pull stats from forums such as this one.

If you want to chat or vent feel free to DM me. I feel your pain - I currently of the mind that being waitlisted is almost worse than a ding, as it allows for a certain measure of hope, misguided though that may be . . .

You summarized it well Asteroid2020. All the best to you for Haas and Anderson. Will contact you over DM.

For anyone who's curious about the Re Vera timeline- mine was just checked off. Took about 8 weeks.

Probaly depends on the location to some extent at this point as well. If you are not a US citizen / permanent resident / don't already have an F-1 visa that you are looking to transfer, it probably is too late for you to apply in this round. That being said, I fall in this last category, and I had indeed applied to R3. But I haven't heard back anything yet, and was told the interview invites are rolling. Whether that means there are still more going out, or that is a way of letting me know I didn't get one, I don't know. Do you know people who have already got R3 interview invites?

I saw a few on ClearAdmit a couple of weeks ago, but I do not know anyone personally.

Ohk, then that means they probably gave it a pass. However, when I emailed them, they said it's happening on a rolling basis, but I also personally think this is a little too late for them to be sending out the invites. Just my opinion
