Anyone know what percentage of interviewed are accepted at Anderson? My interview went okay. Neither great nor terrible.

Anyone know what percentage of interviewed are accepted at Anderson? My interview went okay. Neither great nor terrible.

Based on last year's data, it appears that Anderson interviewed approx. 44% of all candidates and ultimately accepted approx. 29% of all candidates, which would indicated that about 2 out of every 3 interview invites got admitted last year. That being said, the info session I went to mentioned that the entering class was too big, and they were looking to reduce the size this year. That coupled with the increase in applicants will most likely reduce the % of accepted candidates. Whether they adjust the % of interviewed candidates remains to be seen. My guess is the percentage of interviewed candidates accepted will most likely be in the 50-60% range.

In terms of your interview, I wouldn't worry too much about it. The Anderson website even mentions that the interviews generally just reiterate what's already in your application. As long as you didn't stray from your story, and came across as mature and genuine, you should have a good shot! Let us know how you end up and best of luck!

Just logged into my application. It still says "Your MBA application is being reviewed by our admissions committee and we will contact you if we have any questions."

The MBA Blog on the Anderson website says that the interview invites are going to be rolling out till mid-jan so am not too worried. Plus no international applicant interviewing outside the US seems to have received any interview invites.

Did anyone just get the email that was just sent out?? There is a bullet point on the email that says:

"Our largest-ever group of December admits will be announced before the holidays to spread good cheer -- then more admissions and interviews will come after our school's winter-break closure Dec. 22 to Jan. 2"

Does that mean that people who already interviewed will be notified by Dec 22??

Just saw the email. I just think this means most but not all of the admit notices will be sent out before the holidays. I also think this means that there may not be any new interview invitations until the new year.

Dear ****,

Prospective MBA students have responded enthusiastically to our innovations at UCLA Anderson -- so far this year our applications are up more than 20%! Clearly, changes in our curriculum and application have attracted strong attention, while our culture and location remain ever-popular.

We are also happy to share news that:

Paperless evaluations are going rapidly on our new iPads, as we zoom in on each candidate for a closer look

Our largest-ever group of December admits will be announced before the holidays to spread good cheer -- then more admissions and interviews will come after our school's winter-break closure Dec. 22 to Jan. 2

Admissions interviewers are excited by the quality of candidates this year, and we will continue to meet others through students, alumni and Skype

We anticipate receiving plenty of Round 2 applications by the Jan. 11 deadline, shortly before announcing our Round 1 decisions

Candidates have until April 18, 2012 to apply for the last round that will fill the amazing MBA Class of 2014

Updates will follow as the season unfolds. Meanwhile, we wish you the happiest of holidays and a prosperous New Year!

Cheers to you from the best side of LA --


Robert Weiler
Assistant Dean and Director
UCLA Anderson MBA Admissions and Financial Aid

I love the title "reasons for cheer"

There will only be reasons to cheer if I am admitted.

Good Luck everyone!!!!!!!

That email made me suffer. For us international applicants this can mean we will not be included in this early release...?

Good luck to all and me!
