IMD 2013 - Calling All Applicants

Indeed. And today is the deadline for the payment of my batch's reservation fee. A few seats may free up soon.

Colleagues, I wonder, have you heard of any loan opportunities for IMD students besides the one offered by IMD itself? I crunched google in and out but didn't find anything of note. Banks themselves don't list anything on their websites (or alternatively, I may or may not be pretty bad at googling things).

I have the same question conserning independent scholarships. I know of the one provided by QS World MBA Tour, but those are only available for those who attended their even, and the closest is in October. Has anyone heard of any other independent foundations, available for students from non-US (aka IMD)?

I'm particularly interested for those available for Russians.

Thanks guys! I know that It's really annoying to be on the wait list...but as I have learnt, there's always hope, u just need to be persistent, creative in your communication with IMD and of course be positive and consistently re-emphasize your drive and reasons to go to IMD......it's obviously also a good idea to look at alternatives, IESE was my next option........but looking forward to starting with IMD next year........

that is very true and you're 100% right

Does anyone have some updates on R2 applicants (accepted/ waitlisted)?

I guess all the results of R2 must be out by this time. Did any of the waitlisted students get an admit ( I saw Menonvic got an offer), anyone else. Did IMD send reject letters also to the waitlisted/interviewed candidates. I have not seen anything yet in this forum.

@spynxx how many of the people interviewed in your group got admitted?

Here is what I have when I try to aggregate the numbers. Feel free to update the list!

Thanks so much for the update....all I know is that this wait for the call is killing me ( am an R3 applicant)...fullest sympathies for the R1 & R2 applicants

do we know the split between nationalities - accepted / waitlisted

For March 8th it is 2 confirmed other 5 denied the offer

For April 3rd both of us are matriculating (Scott from China and myself from Ukraine). Other guys are still waitlisted AFAIK.

Hi Lorina, you seem to have missed my interview date:
- May 11th - out of 7: 3 accepted, 3 waitlisted, 1 unknown

Thanks for compiling that info, it's great to have it summarized in one place.

There was an interview on may 22. 8 of us. So far 3 accepted. 2 wait listed. 2 rejected. 1 unknown.
