The entire year??? Do you have a link or is this something they only shared with the admits? Judge is a 12-month program, correct?

By the way, here are my thoughts and predictions. Though most are for the US schools...

Thank you so much for posting and sharing. My guess this is primarily focused on the undergraduate students. They have for years and plenty of time to catch up in person. Most of them will also live on campus and eat on campus.

I am also guessing, there may be a different rule for business school. I am frankly very surprised this was announced since Judge did not say anything about this at the AIGAC conference and MBA fair.... Sloan said the MBA students will be some of the first folks to come back on campus. I would guess since some “study groups” are allowed, there may be room for small MBA classes. I would wait for the official Judge announcement .... and pray it is not online MBA.

So Cambridge has announced that it will take course delivery online for the next year.

Although this makes sense with the on-going situation, I think many or most B-school applicants would want to have an actual (face-to-face) B-school experience and thus B-schools might see a sharp decline in admission applications this fall (if more B-Schools follow suit).

I wonder how the experience for the class of 2022 (especially 1 Year MBAs) will change due to online course delivery.

What do you guys think ? Will you be up for a commencement-to-graduation on-line 1 or 2 year MBA ?

Haha bb true that. On the other hand, No one knows how things are going to pan out, why should any B-school agitate the ‘customers’ then. Lol

Well well well. Poor Cambridge had to give another statement. In-person classes this fall, after all, Y’all!

Cheers to Judge admits.

Update from INSEAD.

INSEAD has extended the application deadlines for the January 2021 intake.

Round 2: 06 May 2020 May 20th, 2020

Round 3: 24 June 2020 July 1st, 2020

Round 4: 28 July 2020 August 5th, 2020

Additionally, INSEAD is allowing at the moment to submit applications without a GMAT/GRE score until test centers reopen.

Warm regards
Alex


Hi ARLeeConsulting

Would you be able to share more about some of the requirements of the ideal INSEAD applicant? (Years of work experience, Age, Nationality etc)?

Just letting those interested know that our latest "B-Schooled" podcast episode is dedicated to COVID-19 impacts for admitted students and those applying this year. It can be found on all major podcast apps. I'm the host. Feel free to DM me with anything you'd like us to cover in future episodes...

I know this is a mega-late reply to you question, but in case anyone else might find it helpful, we did an entire episode on COVID impacts on MBA admits and applicants on our B-Schooled podcast (I'm the host!). It's Episode 11 and can be found on all major podcasting apps. We cover a lot of questions and scenarios in it. Hope that helps.

I am pretty sure this is not the right forum but I don't want to create a new thread.

Can some expert share thoughts on MBA this year vs next year? A holistic approach keeping in mind : someone who already has a good score/someone who was thinking to take second attempt to apply for next, schools that are still decent/good options, implications of economy/job market..

If that makes sense!

Are IIMs or any Indian colleges waiving off GMAT Score for 1year MBA due to the pandemic?
