Congrats to all selected to Merage MBA. When did you submit your app? I submitted a day before deadline. How can I check the status of my app?

Hey, congratulations! I received fellowship information at the same time as my admission notification via email. I will not go into specific amounts but if you have any other questions regarding the school or Southern California in general I would be happy to share what I know, so feel free to message me directly here.

I submitted about a week before the deadline and sent my official transcripts so that they would arrive before the deadline. They should have sent you an email linking to an application status page that allows you to log in and check the application status. This is the same "portal" that they use for interview scheduling when they extend an interview invite.

Hi,

I have received my transcripts in a sealed envelope from university . Can I mail only the transcripts as getting the degree notarised from university would take another 2 weeks.

Would only original transcripts work for international
applicants ?

Hi, I was recently selected for a video interview for UCI. Does anyone know what kind of questions they ask?
Thanks!

Hi,
The questions are purely behavioural in nature. You can find sample questions on the KIRA platform once you register. Practise those questions and you'll be fine. Although the actual interview questions will differ but you can be sure of the type.

There are couple of things that you can do-
1) Raise your score, if it is below 700.
2) Take some additional responsibilities/projects at workplace that supports your post mba goals.

Do not forget to communicate these changes to the school.
One thing for sure, if you do not take steps to improve, things wont change. If you sincerely feel that you cannot add anything to your profile, then probably wait and watch.
All the best!

Thanks !
I feel I will wait and watch.
Just wanted to know about the school trend i.e. whether waitlisted people are given a call generally ?
I guess I will wait.

What is the admission acceptance deadline for all admitted students?

I submitted my application on 1st Nov. I was confirmed on 7th Nov that my application is now complete. But I have not been invited to the interview since then. I mailed them 2 weeks ago and they said it can take 4-6 weeks to review the application. I'm still waiting to hear from them. Any suggestions what to do at this point?
