I applied in R2 and just got an email telling me they need more time (upto 2 weeks) to review my application. Looks like a soft way to waitlist me for an interview.

I received the same e-mail. Maybe they just really need these 2 extra weeks to process all applications. Has anyone received an interview invite after applying in the 2nd Round?

I read about a guy on this forum who got an interview invite in R2. You seem to be Indian (so am I) - maybe they will limit the number of Indian applications they interview in R2.

Hey!
I am from India too, but working abroad. How much time did they take to inform you of your admission decision after your 2nd round of Interview?

Hi, I got wait listed without an interview. They said that need more time to review my application. So should receive the interview decision in a couple of weeks.

Are there any Non-Finance Background applicants who have received Admit into HKUST. I am one, and I received the admit last week.
Lets get in touch, if any.
Thanks!
