They are known for putting more emphasis on “fit” and less on test scores/GPA than pretty much any other top b-school

Goals matter as well bro. Most of those people are going into social impact. They "are not expected to make a lot of money" like consultants so lots of scholarships for them. Also the hiring barrier for social impact is less. Bain or BCG may ask for your test score and GPA but not so much for social impact. You may get away with sub par GRE/GPA for social impact but no so much for consulting/ finance

I don’t even know what they’re on man. I got invited to an interview and was rejected: not even waitlisted.

So wild, we move.

I think getting interview invites meant the fit was there. Getting waitlisted means a demand and supply problem 😅

"Demand and supply problem" sums up the fate of over-represented candidates almost perfectly. lol

Hello all

Good morning

I was waitlisted in R1 without interview and yesterday I received an email from fuqua admissions on the confirmation that my application still remains waitlisted

but the same has not been updated on the portal

Anyone with similar scenario ?

Does it say waitlisted in the portal? If so, I guess there is no need to update it again?

Portal doesn’t upate every time your status remains waitlisted. You’re good

Did other people get a package in the mail with a Fuqua shirt or hat or some gift? I saw a few people on LinkedIn get something random when they were accepted. NBD.
