Hey Guys

Do we need to send official scores to the college? or self reported scores are fine?

I am applying for R2

You need to self report and then also send the official GMAT/GRE or any English language proficiency scores to them. They must be sent before the round deadline. You only have to scan your transcripts for your four year college degree.

Thank you for the detailed answer.

Another followup question - do we need to complete the "video interview" before the deadline? or that can be done after the deadline as well?

The video interview link will be sent to you after the deadline for the round. You will have a few days (I think a week) to complete it. I am not sure if the video link is sent out ahead of the deadline in case someone applies weeks before the official round deadline since I only submitted my application a couple of days ahead of the R1 deadline.

Hey Guys,

Does anyone know the recommendation questions along with the word limit for Fosters? I checked their website and found out that Fosters doesn't use the GMAC recommendation letter template

Lol, the name itself says it's optional.

Those incomplete items that have a * against them are required. Note that optional essay isn't followed by a star. Hence, it's not mandatory. It's just how the application portal is coded by the developer.

Go ahead and submit it. All the best

Thanks abhimahna for the lightening quick reply as always.

I was wondering why there is no * for optional essay. Ideally, there should be one as others have it
