INSEAD January 2012 Intake Waitlist

Just got dinged!!!
Dear XXX,
Earlier during this academic year, you had accepted a place on our waitlist. We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your continued interest in the INSEAD MBA Programme and for the effort you have put into your application.

Unfortunately, we are sorry to inform you that we will definitely not be able to offer you a seat for the MBA Class of December 2012. Consequently, we now have to cancel your MBA application from the Admissions process, as we do not defer waitlisted candidates to a future class.

Please note that we do not generally encourage reapplications from waitlisted candidates to whom we were not able to offer a place on the programme. This is because the Admissions Committee has already made a very in-depth evaluation of your file. Reapplications are rarely successful unless there is a significant change in the candidate’s profile (at the applicant's own discretion), such as new personal/professional achievements. However, please bear in mind the competition at INSEAD is fierce. Even re-applicants that demonstrate significant changes will not necessarily be admitted.

On behalf of the MBA Admissions Office, we thank you for your understanding and sincerely wish you all the best for the future.


Does everyone get the same email or are some candidates encouraged to apply again?
