I asked for feedback and got the following response - "Thank you for your email. We understand you spent a considerable amount of time on your application. Yale SOM offers candidate feedback every summer. Due to the way we conduct our admissions process, we cannot provide you with feedback in the middle of our admissions cycle."

Wonderful to hear that Yale SOM has joined the ranks of programs that provide non-admits feedback on their applications. This feedback can be really helpful for subsequent applications, even if you decide not to reapply to SOM again because if SOM has apprehensions about your stated career path given your past career history (i.e., goals aren’t in line with demonstrated interest & accomplishments – a common reason for rejection), then that’s probably going to be a sentiment shared with other top-tier programs.

In response to the candidate who was told that past academic performance was the reason for rejection, Yale’s averages for GMAT and GPA are around the same as other top-10 programs, but the distribution is tighter (see top bottom 75th and top 25th percentile numbers). This may be in part because of Yale’s quest to climb the rankings ladder or because the program is small so they are more risk-adverse re averages of admits (full time programs that are 3 times the size, like HBS or Wharton, can afford to take slightly more risks on the margins, perhaps). Other schools may be more forgiving about academic performance if you have other metrics associated with your candidacy.

Another school that has historically given good feedback to non-admits is Tuck, which will usually give feedback immediately after decisions are announced if it is requested (so you don’t have to wait until the summer like SOM).

Hi Guys, I’m Prudhvi from India

I’m planning to apply to Yale in R1, I’m a re-applicant, rejected without Interview last year. This year I’m applying with a relatively higher GRE score, a Promotion at work

The most I like about yale is how they integrated their curriculum around business & society, which I believe would be helpful for long-term goals of working ESG/Impact policy advisory

Do post, your brief profile & your reasons to apply to Yale. We can explore ways to help each other.

I am a computer science engineer who’s been working in the healthcare industry for the past 4 years. After working in different verticals, I have identified that the industry, in order to grow, needs an adoption of digitalization and a series of operational changes. Inorder for me to implement the needed, I need a certain level of experience and expertise managing people and driving transformational initiatives. This acted as my motivation behind an MBA and subsequently working in consulting, especially in the healthcare practice post-MBA, and working with different sectors in healthcare. Yale’s emphasis on social impact and strong consulting pipeline (especially with MBB; I think ~80/310 odd students went to MBB this year for full time) drew me towards the school.
