Congratulations to all who have secured admit in RSM.

Unfortunately for me, I submitted my application for Round 1 but have not received anything from them.
I followed multiple times with adcom but I get the same response that they have not made a decision. This waiting time is making me anxious... It would have been far better had I got a decision... even if it is a rejection as its impacting my other plans

Just wondering... Is there anyone else in the same boat as me!??

Hey, same case for me. I am sure they have reviewed our applications. Seems like its heading towards wait list.

Hello All. Congrats to all the successful applicants. I am planning to apply in round 2. Can someone suggest what's the maximum words for the essay? It says approximate 500 words in the website. My essay goes up to 700 words. Is that too much?

Hi Syed Kaleel Awn yes, unfortunately 700 words is too far over. If it's a firm 500 words, the rule is to go no more than 10% over and when, "approximate" I feel 20% would be permissible if the content is necessary and compelling all the way through. But 40% shows a lack of concision and judgement. I am pretty great at getting word count down so feel free to contact me.

I asked an admissions manager a couple of days ago about scholarships, and she answered me that I am been offered a 5000 EUR scholarship and that I will receive the official scholarship offer letter this week

Hi Guys,

Did anyone else receive an admit recently from RSM?

I was interviewed on the 27th of May and awaiting response from adcom. I am not sure if it's a good idea to contact them

If anyone has already contacted adcom please let me know their response

Thanks

Hi.. I talked to adcom people. They said that those who have not yet received the response are mostly in waitlist and it would take an another month before they give out final acceptance or rejection mails.
