I know we are a few weeks away but does Sloan call you to tell you that you’ve been accepted or is it just in the portal?

hi, would like to ask what is letter of support you mentioned here? Is that similar to recommendation letter or support in terms of financial support? Thanks!

Letter of support is normally more similar to another recommendation letter! It’s often written by a current student or alumni from the school

Oh, I see, how is this letter of support sent to Sloan? Does the student or alumni send an email or how? I didn’t find any section about the letter of support in the application portal.­

I would send their admissions email the question just in case they’re being strict about accepting additional material. I’m pretty sure they’d accept one though. (I’m assuming it would be sent through email) But ask their admissions committee first if they accept letters of support and if so what’s the best way to send one

My interviewer was almost ten minutes late (and was very apologetic), so it lasted only 20 additional minutes.

At MIT you have the opportunity to get solution in the second year based on your first years performance so upfront would not make sense

I’m considering to apply to Sloan R3, since I’ve recently been laid off. I believe I’ll be able to submit strong materials by the R3 deadline, but I’m not sure what Sloan is looking for in R3 candidates, compared to R1-R2 candidates. Anyone have any insight on this?

I’m URM, 3 YOE corporate finance/strategy at Fortune 50 company (media), LGBTQ, first generation college student, and I have a powerful story of resilience overcoming trauma. However, my GMAT is 30 points lower than Sloan’s median. Would this background help at all in R3, or would it be difficult securing an interview given my below-median GMAT/GPA? I’m working on completing MBA Math, but I’m not sure how impactful completing the course would be.

I think R3 is more competitive because at that point there aren’t as many spots to fill, but I think just put your best foot forward and see what happens! It’s all about telling a good story and conveying why Sloan would be a great fit for you and why Sloan would be lucky to have you. I think the MBA math course is a great idea because it shows that you’re proactive in showing them that even though you might have scored lower on the quant for GMAT you are addressing it with the MBA math course. (If that was the case.) but also the GMAT score can definitely help but isn’t an automatic ding. I’m not sure with R3 being more competitive how that is affected, but I agree with the what do you have to lose? (Besides a couple hundred dollars 😅)
