Is Haas Receptive to Re-applicants?
Most of the top MBA programs are receptive to re-applicants if a re-applicant makes certain to correct the perceived weakness(es) in their prior application. We have written a long article that discusses 7 Best Practices for Re-applicants, located here:
https://gmatclub.com/forum/7-best-practices-for-reapplicants-214756.html
But what specifically about Haas?
Some top business schools are rumored to be less receptive to re-applicants than others. In our experience, Haas is receptive to re-applicants as long as you fix the prior shortcomings of your candidacy or application. We have seen candidates go from rejection with no interview to admission the very next year.
Therefore, if you had a solid overall application but one flat recommendation, you need to reapply with a stellar application – including the essays – and stellar recommendations. If your GPA is solid but you applied with a less-than-ideal GMAT score, say around 620, you should strive to secure a much higher score, ideally in the 700s. If you did not put enough effort into your essays, but otherwise your credentials are competitive, you need to present a new application that shows clearly a great deal of effort in preparation and excellent content.
With Haas in particular, the timing of an application can make a notable difference particularly with foreign nationals. Haas is a popular school with applicants from East Asia and South Asia. If you were an attractive candidate from one of these areas and submitted an application in Round 2 rather than Round 1, you may find that you have a much better chance for admission if you submit your re-application in Round 1 next time. In such a case, the timing of your application is one of the factors that needs to be “fixed”. The same can be true of Americans of East Asian or Indian descent. Because there are such large populations of Americans of these backgrounds in the Bay Area, with large numbers seeking admission at Haas, your odds can be affected. The timing of your application can therefore be important. If you submitted a Round 2 application unsuccessfully, consider Round 1 if you intend to reapply.
With all candidates from over-represented backgrounds (ethnicities, industry areas or foreign countries), it is also important to use the essay content to distinguish yourself from the pool in order to achieve a good outcome with Haas.
Success is possible!
