Hi guys, Starting this thread for waitlisted applicants to stay connected and share their experiences / updates. I would really appreciate if any WLed candidate comes forward and manage this thread. Good luck folks!

Thanks Naren for the dedicated thread. I am interested in managing it. Sharing a quick intro about myself. 740 GMAT. 7 years of experience in Operations in Automobile Industry in India. Targeting Consulting post MBA. Waitlisted in Early Round. Scheduled my Waitlist appointment for 17th October. Has anyone waitlisted candidate had the feedback call with the AdCom? Please throw some light on what to expect.

Hi all, I'm a little confused on something and was hoping to get some clarification. I was waitlisted for EA and was told during my call with adcom that I could hear back before December or into next year. However, I was also told that the deposit deadline is Dec 2. If I am still waitlisted, do I have to put the deposit down? I feel like that can't be right since I don't know if I am getting in or not. Can anyone elaborate please? Thanks!

Did any EA Waitlisted candidates receive an update on the portal? Mine isn't updated yet. Does that mean I'm still on the waitlist?

Did any of you had the chat with the adcom after being waitlisted? I have scheduled mine tomorrow.

Has any of the Darden EA waitlisted candidates heard back?

Nope. My interviewer clearly mentioned that I'll hear back at the end of Round 1 process. No update on portal yet. I have mailed my Interviewer. Hoping for a reply soon.

Hey guys, How’s the conversion rate of waitlisted applicants in Darden? Will we be evaluated in the Waitlist conversation with the adcom? Posted from my mobile device

They told me to send an aditional essay showing teamwork and leadership.

Anyone with any good news?? R2 decisions are a week away. Haven't heard anything till now. Wondering what to do now :D

I think the accepted candidates from the waitlist will be called up on the day the R2 admits will be called up - March 18th Does anyone have an idea about the acceptance rate that we can expect for the waitlisted candidates this time?
