hello
Yes it is a rolling process but there is a deadline. Please check the website for details.
I got shortlisted 2 days after my documents reached. So I think they wait for the documents before shortlisting. They will give an option for face to face on 25th in Mumbai as there team is travelling to Mumbai on that day or a skype interview. So most probably you will hear as soon as your documents reach as in my opinion they would want to call maximum candidates to Mumbai.

Hi Guys,

Any idea how to get the official true copy of the degree certificate in India ?
Can I get this attested from anywhere apart from my university. They took 25 days to mail me the transcripts, getting a true copy from university will again take 25 days, so that's not an option for me.
I have applied for R1

Regards,
Shubham

IF you have a provisional degree certificate, you can notarize that and drop a mail to HKU MBA admissions that couldn't arrange that you are sending a provisional as of now. I had a discussion with MBA admissions office at HKU, the person said you can send the physical documents to HKU till December. So , I guess you have pretty much time to apply for your original degree certificate.

Was your application complete before they released the decision? I mean did you send in your transcripts and references?
