Calling all Johnson Cornell MBA Waitlisted 2019-2020 Applicants

Hello to all Waitlisted applicants! Creating a place for Johnson waitlisters to share information, updates, concerns. Be welcome and please share any information, tip or concern you may have regarding the whole WL process....

Here is the official Johnson WL Information:
Quote:
Information for waitlisted candidates
If you have been invited to join our waitlist with or without an interview, it means that you show potential as an applicant but may have one or more areas in which you can strengthen your candidacy. While a visit to campus can be very helpful in understanding the culture and community here at Johnson, it does not have a direct impact on your candidacy. If you voluntarily choose to visit us on campus, we encourage you to make the most of your experience by reaching out to current students and clubs that you are interested in or attending a class, information session, or Coffee and Convos session with our current students.

I was waitlisted this evening but I don't see anything about an action plan in the letter. Where did you see this?

It's not stated in the WL portal update but it's on their website. Google 'Cornell Johnson MBA Waitlist' and the first result should be the school's own page regarding it, and it says to email them an action plan. I haven't done this yet even though I received my WL decision about a month ago since I am balancing work and an infant son, and I am working on extra cirriculars but I don't want to send anything to Cornell until I've made some concrete progress. Also, they have a webinar for waitlistees on January 7th which I will attend first before writing the action plan.

Hi,

I was waitlisted this week for the two year program at Johnson and would appreciate any tips on how I can improve my chances of receiving an acceptance.

Thank you!

I am in the same boat, the letter didn’t give much other than to attend the Waitlist webinar and identify areas of weakness. In my case I know I need to retake the GMAT. Does anyone know if they look at waitlist applicants during each round?

Did anyone receive an email today from Cornell confirming whether remaining on the waitlist was of interest? I replied to the email but wasn't sure if I had to send it to waitlistcornell instead.

Does anyone have a ballpark figure of how many candidates Cornell waitlists?

Not sure about ball park figure for waitlist candidates. Only thing I've seen is historically they have accepted around 10-12% of waitlist candidates. Has anyone heard anything since getting waitlisted?

Was anyone else on the Johnson Waitlist webinar two weeks ago? There were supposedly over 90 applicants in that waitlist - is that a lot? Do they accept a lot of people off the waitlist?

I just got waitlisted at Cornell today. Looks like getting waitlisted is the story of my life! For anyone from the January round who got waitlisted, there's a Waitlist webinar on April 14.
