Hi there, would it be possible to connect with you? Would appreciate any guidance you can share from your IESE experience. Were you able to convert the waitlist to an admit?
We understand how tough it is to get a rejection from a school. It's a difficult moment, but it can also be a stepping stone to your success. We've put together an article on the " Major reasons why your MBA Application got dinged. " It provides some understanding of mistakes you might have made. Take a moment to review it!
Also we see that you have been waitlisted by IESE. We understand that being waitlisted can be tough, but it’s also a sign that you’re still in the running for your dream program! Stay positive and proactive, many candidates who stay engaged and continue to show their commitment ultimately succeed. Keep pushing forward, and remember, the journey isn’t over yet! You've got this!

We've created a special blog for the "Waitlisted Strategies: How to Navigate the Process". It will help you with the necessary tips and insights to increase your chances of success!
If you plan to apply to some more schools in the next rounds/ intake, we’d be happy to evaluate your profile and help refine your strategy. Together, we can identify strengths, address gaps, and ensure you present your best story to your dream schools.
