Received an admit about 6 hours back via portal update. India based. No mention of scholarship yet, does this mean this is the final decision on scholarship?

Hello everyone,

Congratulations to those who have received an admit. For those who haven’t received one yet, I hope you receive positive news from other schools you have applied to.

As part of GMAT Club’s continuous efforts to improve the forum experience, we’re introducing a revamped version of our "What Are My Chances" tool. To accomplish this, we need the help of you awesome folks! If you applied in R1 this year, it would immensely benefit us if you could fill out the following survey. The survey will not take more than two minutes but will significantly contribute to our research efforts, allowing us to provide more accurate evaluations to our future candidates.

Best of luck!

I think it means just to wait until R2 when your application will once again be evaluated with all R2 applicants

That means they will interview first or direct decision with R2?

Same. I’ve had responses after a while, but most either ignore or don’t follow up with responses to set up time to chat. If anyone here is willing to chat, that would be great!

Join us LIVE on YouTube with Guido, a Fintech professional from Argentina who got into four prestigious MBA programs: Harvard, Stanford GSB, MIT Sloan, and Yale SOM. In this interview, Maria Wich-Vila (HBS Alum and Founder of Applicant Lab) will try to understand his motivations for MBA, what makes his story unique, what contributed to his success, and how he approached essays, resume, recommendations, interviews etc.
