Do anyone know what is the minimum GMAT score requirement ?

There is no average score for ESSEC application. But having 650+ is good for application. The higher the score the better the chances of getting in school.

Hi All,

First of all - please to be making you acquaintance! I hope to be seeing some of you on campus in the fall of 2021.

I was wondering whether anyone knows how strict these official timetables typically are? i.e. is it likely that ALL Round 1 admissions results will be released on November 30th?

Also can somebody please explain to me the 'shortlisted' aspect? I am unsure what this means for a course with no interview stage.

Thanks!

Hey, Glad to have you here.
As much as i would love to clear query i myself have no idea regarding this,
But we are having a Chat session two days consecutively tomorrow and on the day after tomorrow, with HEC and ESSEC Candidates, you must take the most out of the given opportunity.
The Chat session will held at Main Chat room only, Check the following link for the same: https://gmatclub.com/forum/live-chats-w ... 32306.html

Regards,
Yashika

Hi guys! With roughly a week away from R1 deadline, I'd be glad to know how your apps are going! Feel free to ask questions or post a discussion about anything pertinent to the ESSEC Mfin App

Hello again, hope you are well!

Out of curiosity, do you know if ESSEC's applications are rolling? i.e. will they look at all Round 1 applications at the same time or do they review them as they come in?

Thanks

Hi Matt! Hope you're doing well too
As far as I know, ESSEC looks at all apps after the deadline. Hence, I believe it's not rolling (i.e - doesn't matter when you end up submitting your application before the deadline)
_________________

And to think I applied two days after they opened the round! Gladfully, I was able to make small amendments to my key documents after I had submitted. (or at least, it appears as if I have been able to - perhaps adcom will only view my original forms...)

Has anyone from R1 recieved any response? Roughly when can a response be expected?

Posted from my mobile device

You will get the response by tomorrow

Hey, what makes you think it will be tomorrow? I was told it would be 30th Nov.

I did not recieve any response on 10th. I know the final decision date of 30th November is official. Is the 10th November Interview shortlist date official as well? I didn't come across it on the website.

That's correct. There's no such 'admissibility' date for ESSEC MFin. Results should be expected roughly around 16h00-17h00 CEST on November 30th

I'm curious if anyone got a scholarship alongside their admission letter. Or will we hear of it later?

wondering about it as well.. no such scholarship offer here though
