Hi guys! Does anyone have any data on what are the chances of getting converted into an admit from the waitlist? Any typically by when can one expect to get off the waitlist (either accepted or rejected)?

ajtmatch there is no stated time for the conversion to happen if at all. There are many posts of how to get the conversion done. They may be helpful to you.

MsInvBanker , yep found those. But I wanted some data on the convertion rate. Read somewhere that the yield at Simon is just 30-33%. So, I think still some chance at a seat. Also, most of the people who have secured admits in R1 have a score of 710-30. I assume many will be leaving Simon for a school of their first choice as well.

Nice & detailed step by step application guide for R3 applicants We know getting ready to apply to business school can be hectic. There’s a lot to do, and while you’re writing essays and collecting transcripts, you’re also juggling professional and personal commitments. To simplify the process a bit, below you’ll find what you need to do each week to complete your application by our next full-time application deadline on February 15. This week (Week of January 12) Prepare to submit your standardized test scores electronically through our online application: – When submitting GMAT scores, use the “Official Test Taker Copy” – When submitting GRE or TOEFL scores, use the “Examinee Score Report” – When submitting Executive Assessment scores (MBA only), use the “Official Test Taker Copy” – When submitting IELTS scores, use the “Test Report Form” If you are an MS applicant, consider scheduling an InitialView interview . InitialView provides you with the unique opportunity to enhance your application by including an unscripted interview and a writing sample with your application. This adds an additional dimension to your candidacy and ultimately provides the following benefits: – A guaranteed opportunity to showcase your English language skills. As you may know, admissions interviews at Simon are conducted by invitation only. By providing us with an InitialView interview, you are guaranteeing that the Admissions Committee will assess your skills during the application review process, rather than waiting for an invitation to interview. – Potential to waive your admissions interview. Depending on the strength of your InitialView interview, the Admissions Committee may extend you the courtesy of waiving your formal admissions interview; we have admitted candidates based solely on the strength of their application and InitialView submission. Week of January 19 Write your essays. Stick to the word limit and be sure to answer the question being asked. Also, don’t forget to use the optional essay to explain anything you don’t want the Admissions Committee to make assumptions about, such as employment gaps or a difficult academic period. Collect your academic transcripts for undergraduate and graduate study as well as from any transfer institutions. Attend our “Financial Aid Prep” webinar on Tuesday, January 21, at 9:00 a.m. EST for an overview of the financial aid process and options available to students. Attend our “Q&A with MBA Alumni” webinar on Saturday, January 25, at 11:15 a.m. EST. Week of January 26 Update your résumé. We require a business formatted résumé and recommend it be no longer than two pages. Focus on quantifying your accomplishments and keep the formatting clean and easy to read. Attend our “Round 3 Application Tips” webinar on Wednesday, January 29, at 9:00 a.m. EST. Keep in mind: If you apply early—by 11:59 p.m. EST on Saturday, February, 1—your application fee is waived! (Look ahead to the weeks of February 2 and February 9 to be sure you complete those steps before applying!) Week of February 2: Select who you will list as your references. Professional references are recommended, but if you have limited work experience, you may prefer to choose a professor who is familiar with your passions and work ethic. Review the MBA or MS application checklist to make sure you’ve gathered all the required elements of the application and are ready to hit submit. Week of February 9 Proofread all of your materials. In fact, have a friend or family member proofread your résumé and essays with fresh eyes. When you’re ready, submit your application. We encourage you to not wait until the final hours of February 15 to ensure everything is submitted on time. As always, if you have any questions about the application process, your candidacy, or Simon in general, please email us at admissions@simon.rochester.edu . Best of luck as you continue to work on your application!
