Sure thing, will update you on MBAConnect as soon as I access it.
The first deposit is normally 4 weeks after deadline. Still waiting for official info on that as well.

Honestly, I doubt that any of the admitted students read the "waitlisted" section. Try asking on the 2 separate threads....

Thank you Icecream87!

I thought there would only be movement in the waitlist together with 2nd round's final decisions, specially because there is a holiday break until Jan 2. From what you know, do you think INSEAD might reassess the waitlist before then?

Wish everyone a happy new year!!! :-D

Well, all AOs just return from holidays. So let's give them some time to refresh their minds and reread our applications from new perspectives :-D
But then again, the wait is nerve-wracking...
