Also do we get to choose our schedule? Evening vs weekend?

Posted from my mobile device

I think we’ve all chosen or mentioned our preference regarding the schedule. They’ll assign the cohorts and there’s a process to request a change which includes a justification for the change, etc. I believe I found that in the new admits webpage .

Click the "New admit website" and there is a new admit enrollment checklist. There it says scholarship information will be available April 18th

Thanks - hopefully they can provide some info earlier as that just leaves us a few days to evaluate the offer in full if any $$ is given.

I was wondering about that too. I had also applied for the need based Shapansky grant and got an email asking to provide some proof of financial status- tax forms etc. anyone else got this? Also it’s hilarious, the email seems to have been copied from last year- they were asking for 2017 W2 and asked to submit before June 2018.

I haven’t heard anything - no email or update to the portal. Do they email and update the portal for denials as well?

Yes. They should update the portals even for the denials as well. Did you find out yet?

If it doesn't update by tomorrow AM, I suggest calling admissions for status.

Try calling them. I am not sure if they'll pick up as it is already weekend but email them as well.

I just got the admit to the EWMBA, yay! Not so yay- I’ll be moving to San Diego in the next couple of months for a job change. So far I had only considered going to Haas being local to San Francisco.

Now that I may have to commute every week from SD I’m trying to evaluate my experience in the program. Can any recent admits or current students who are commuting in for classes every week comment on this? What is the effect on participation in networking events, happy hours, group projects, study groups etc if you’re commuting from somewhere as far as a 1-2 hr flight?

Just got the admit in R2 as well. I'll be commuting from OC every weekend. I've talked to a few others currently in the program who are flying from OC/LA area. Feel free to PM me.

I had also been admitted from WL. In terms of things you can submit to strengthen the application- I think Haas will accept new test scores, resume update. if they need anything else including additional recommendations they will contact you. I heard of some people even getting a second interview request.

I had not been asked for anything else to submit. I attended a couple of events on campus and talked to Admissions directors at the events and also sent a new resume. Previously candidates mentioned they send additional recommendations but Haas specifically said they don’t want recommendations unless asked for.

I suggest going over your application and determine any parts that maybe below average: test scores, essays, work exp etc. It may help to send a new resume and talk/email with Ad com about your motivations. There’s no correct answer, give your best shot. Good luck and hope you’re in soon!

For those admitted in R1/R2 and have been through background check, etc, is there anything I need to get ready for the background check? Like paystubs/W2s, proof of extracurriculars, etc.
