Does that mean we are rejected or are we put on hold for the time being?

Hey,

Got an interview invite via email last evening (31st Jan). Skype interview scheduled by the interviewer on 16th Feb.
GMAT:720, 3 years work ex at Deloitte Consulting, India

Assistance required for the interview. I have an idea about it, it'll be behavioral. I need help on the areas i should focus on and what exactly do the admissions committee look for in a candidate.

Cheers!

Hi All,

Just wanted to know whether it is compulsory to send hard copy of transcripts to Rotman to receive an interview invite, or just soft copy of transcripts are enough to initiate an interview invite, given the candidate has an ideal for profile?

Thanks!

In the website they say that is compulsory to send them the transcripts.
If I'm not wrong, it is one of the 5 parts that they need to receive (LOR and GMAT scores are other 2 parts).

Yeah, but I emailed the admissions office and they said the unofficial copy is sufficient to start the review process, you can submit the physical official transcript at a later stage.

Does anyone else have the same thoughts?

Also, could that be the reason for a delay in interview call?

Thanks!

So, I reached out to the admissions team and they confirmed that the physical transcripts can be sent at a later stage, and they are still reviewing applications of R2 as there has been a surge in applications volumes.

So, I believe we should let it play out, and wait for our calls. In the meanwhile, we can probably work on our interviews and relax a little as I know the ride so far has been very exhausting for a lot of us.

All the best folks!

I got interviewed a couple of weeks ago. I applied at the end of deadline 2. I'm still waiting for their answer.

As for the interview, I thought it was pretty similar to other schools.

Hi,

Most probably the interview will be an interactive one. They will start, usually they do, with asking you to run through the resume and then will star the questions. They will definitely ask, Why MBA and Why Rotman. And yes, at the end of the interview they will ask you for Any Questions for Rotman. Please do ask them a few.
You have to be yourself and as part of preparation you will need introspection so that you can answer the WHY MBA question.

Cheers,

G'ge
