­I apologize for not using the correct email address. I noticed the instructions after signing up for the MBA Spotlight Fair, and I own that mistake. However, it is imperative that I use my other email address for my applications. Do you think the admissions committees from the different schools would be willing to assist with this?­

Hi. Sorry about that. I trying to warn as many people as possible ahead of time. We had a bit of the same situation last year and I was trying to apply lessons learned.

I’m sure you’re not the only one who was busy and potentially change their mind about the email address they will use. You can check with the admissions team. I bet they’ll do it though I doubt they would be excited doing it 😇

This would be a case by case basis - some programs do offer them across departments, but in general I would assume that they are only for the MBA programs

Hi,
When can we get the final list of app fee waiver winners and other prizes by Gmat?
Sorry for the impatience, but it's just too good of an offer to pass up!

Application Fee Waivers at MBA Spotlight Fair
That's over 💸 $800,000 in App Fee Waiver Money!

Wednesday November 13, 2024
To be eligible to receive a waiver, attend a session with the AdCom from the program and you will be eligible for the App Fee Waiver (the instructions will come directly from the MBA Program after the event). For the schools that have only a handful - e.g. Tuck, stop by their booths to enter to win the app fee waivers.

Waivers are valid for the entire 2024-2025 application season including Round 2 and Round 3 (Jones only provided R2 waivers)

Hey bb,

I have attended multiple Q&As with Adcom. Will I get a guaranteed fee waiver on my application by December 5th? If not, I will mail a request to Adcom with the document available in the application form.

Thanks & Regards.
