Hi guys,

Any updates on W/L status ?

llpbrace · Answer

waitlisted....
on the web it says "We look forward to receiving relevant updates such as improved test scores, transcripts from additional courses, details about career developments, or an additional recommendation letter. Please send these updates to Kim Szpiro..."

I have no plan to retake gmat(my score is already above the mean score of Johnson). I have no transcripts from additional courses and I don't have "career development" compare to 1.5 months ago when I appied Johnson. what should I do?

dtse86 · Answer

I would update them on something that would seem significant professionally or personally that has happened since applying or may not have been on the original application.

If there is still nothing, I would at least send an email expressing your interest in the program.

pratikgupta · Answer

No updates on r1 waitlisted without interview status.

patartob · Answer

Just sent Kim my updated TOEFL score, and asked her if there's any particular timeline for the waitlist applicants...She only replied with thanks for the update and didn't respond my question on the timeline

anyone successfully got off the waitlist? new updates anyone?

ankitsachdev · Answer

None yet. I got waitlisted in R2 without interview, sent one major update email in mid-march and received a thank you note. Since then I havn't heard anything. Would really love to see some posts of people hearing back on their waitlist offers. Since I am an international student I am wondering if they even consider international waitlist students beyond R3.
