Hi @prtkbns,

Thank you for your reply. The opportunity to get an MBA is special, and if Warwick and Manchester do not excite you, then you should not accept the offer. Wait for RSM, and if they return with a less than ideal response, you can re-apply for 2019 intake.

It is difficult for me to asses the two schools (Warwick and Manchester) without knowing why you have applied to both those schools. What are your career goals?

Hello,

Thank you very much for your valuable reply. I didn't mention that I also have an admit from Warwick Business School with a scholarship. I am very keen in attending RSM but since I see very less probability of getting an Admitted offer I think I should accept the offer from either Manchester or Warwick. Keeping in mind the strict visa regulations in UK and the current job scene, I am reluctant to accept the offer. The deposit amount is quite large so I do not think I can keep that option. I need some solid guidance as to which school you think is the best amongst Warwick, RSM and Manchester.

Thanks.

Hi prtkbnsl,

Congratulations on your admission to Manchester. The way I see it, you have two options: (i) decline offer at MBS, and wait for RSM's decision - if RSM comes back with a "not admitted," you would lose the chance to attend Manchester instead (if you choose to reapply, then you must go through the entire process again) - and (ii) accept the offer from MBS and make the deposit. Should RSM come back with an offer of admission, you have the option to accept that offer instead, albeit losing the deposit at MBS.

There is also another option, defer admission to Manchester if approved (https://www.mbs.ac.uk/study/masters/how ... plication/).


I hope this helps.

Good luck!

Hello,

I recently had my interview with Rotterdam School of Management. Unfortunately, the interview didn't go quite well as I expected. I am not sure whether I will get an admit from RSM. I already have an admit from Manchester Business School and my deadline to accept the offer is 28th May, 2018. My interviewer at RSM informed me that they will inform me about the admission's decision by 10th June, 2018. I am very confused as to whether I should choose MBS or should I let go MBS and wait for the decision from RSM. Please help.

Thank you very much.

Hi prtkbnsl,

Considering Rotterdam has not materialized yet, it is logically out of consideration (till you receive an admit). Hence, if Warwick and Manchester Business School do not appeal to you or do not inspire confidence in you, it is best to wait to hear from RSM. Should the same not work out you could always apply in the next cycle.

All the best!
