UIUC Illinois MBA Class 2014 aspirants

I just sent you a PM.

Well in that case I shall make it a point to attend them :)
are their some recordings or records of these old sessions that I can check out ?

Sorabu,

I replied to your PM. Let me know if you don't see it again.:|

Hi all,

I am asked to attend an informal meeting with a current student. 😃 I understand from the posts here that this is to evaluate if I am a fit for the MBA program. Any tips and pointers are very much welcome :):) I had to reschedule the skype meeting but I have not received any replies yet confirming on the new dates. Would it take time?

I have been a keen follower of this thread. Congrats to all those who are admitted. Hoping to join the club. Keeping my fingers crossed. :)

Regards,
Sindhya

Hi Sindhya,

I am undergoing the exact same thing. I guess they are a lil busy for now so hopefully we will hear back early next week.

@nmmbaabroad
Yup, got it this time. Thanks for the input. I have sent another message to you though, hope to hear back soon.

Sindhya/Sorabu..

Can you please put in your GMAT scores n profile please?
Since, I have been waitlisted, would like to know whether was it the GMAT score because of which I did not get a interview call...

Hello

I would be joining UIUC graduate college to pursue MS degree (Not MBA). Was trying to find admitted students and could not find better place than pagalguy.

PM me if interested to catch up - MS or MBA - we would be going to same place for higher studies ! So no harm in knowing each other :)

Btw, I am from Mumbai, but am working in Pune.

Any other links where I can find UIUC admitted students - pls pm me the links.

Good luck to all of you and sorry to post this in MBA thread .

Cheers!

Hi all,
I have been offered a place on the waitlist of Illinois MBA. Can you please share ideas on how the process works for waitlisted candidates. Is it very close to rejection or.... Any ideas on this would be helpful at this hour of anxiety..

Any one received interview invite from Illinois....I did submit my application on 15th Jan but still no revert

Received interview invite. Interviewed and communicated the decision - Waitlisted for admission...so now wait!!
Can anyone on the forum help me know when is the next date for committment fee payment for admitted applicants. May be, this will make the picture more clear for waitlisted candidates like me.

Hi- Waitlisted after interview....I think they have less seats available now and more candidates in pipeline...hence they might take a decision after interviewing all the candidates...

In the mail it states waitlist process might go till June or July but my question is if we get a decision in June or July....we will not be able to get Visa and other documents in place to attend fall session this year

I got waitlist without interview. So, I got in touch with current student who has posted in this thread.. He said the school is not keen on taking indian students as of now and is concentrating on europe n china...I asked him whether I can set up a meeting with Ben... He said, Ben is in china to recruit china students and wont get back to you in near future.... These were his words...

I was so frustrated with this that I even do not look at this thread...
I was so following this school and wanted to get into this one but now have no hopes...
This is not a holistic review process followed by the school...
Yes, there would be admits for indian students in the second round only if you do not belong to the curse called INDIAN IT MALE APPLICANT WITH WHATEVER GMAT SCORE YOU HAVE !! Now I ask myself why the hell I did engineering and went into this IT industry !!
I also got to know that gals are being preferred to boys just to show better numbers :sneaky:

So, those wait listed, there are gonna be at least 50 wait listed applicants fighting for one or two seats left out by our fellow desis... So, there is no point in keeping any hopes :nono:

Hi Everyone,

After my interview with the adcom, I was put on the waitlist. Post that, I sent across an additional essay.

I got my admit mail yesterday !! With a bit of $$ as well.

So looking forward to getting in touch with the other admitted candidates.

Cheers,

Hey Guys,

I was at the University of Illinois at Champaign last weekend.

The campus is brilliant and people are friendly! Go Illini!

Hi,

I received an e-mail from UIUC stating that I am waitlisted. I have two questions -

1. Are there cases when they wait list a candidate and then interview or vice versa.

2. Need suggestions on how to strengthen my application.

Are there any other candidates who have been wait listed currently?

please contact.

Hi Puys,
This is my first post.Did anyone receive interview call from UIUC?

Thanks
