To Queenshope and EMBAapplicant:

Did you receive the invite via email or phone call? Also, I believe both of you are applying for the Saturday program, correct?

It was pretty simple. Done in 40 mins. Was with an admissions AD. Went through my resume and she followed up with questions around why CBS and now and how it will help. She already had reviewed my application so had knowledge of my background. Mentioned that I should hear back in 2 weeks.

Anyone know what the acceptance rate is for CBS EMBA?
Is there any difference in acceptance rate between Sat and Fri/Sat?

Thanks

Quick update. I had my interview this week, lasted about 40-45 minutes total. The AD was very gracious and I believe the interview went well given the conversational nature of it. Hoping for a good result! Best of luck to everyone.

Hey guys,

I applied for the Fri/Sat EMBA, class of 21. Early Decision

Application completed - Jan 26th

No answer yet, but I've been emailing admissions back and forth and they said I should expect an answer this month on whether I get an interview or not. I attended the class visit last weekend, which went very well.


Has admissions reached out yet?
