Being on the Fuqua Daytime MBA waitlist can be challenging, but strategic interaction with the admissions office can make a difference. Engaging with the admissions committee in two to three meaningful ways during each round is recommended. Here are effective ways to stay in touch:
- Attend Virtual Events: Participate in virtual sessions for waitlisted candidates. Gain insights into the evaluation process, reflect on your application, and ask real-time questions to admissions committee members.
- Join Office Hours: Attend individual or group office hours sessions. Be prepared to discuss your interest in Fuqua, share potential application updates, and inquire about the program fit.
- Submit Official Updates: Use the waitlist update form to communicate with the entire admissions committee. Share significant updates, such as new test scores, work promotions, or additional reasons why Fuqua is the ideal choice.
Common updates to share include:
- New test scores
- Work promotions or added responsibilities
- Evolving reasons for selecting Fuqua
Remember, each interaction serves as a touchpoint, contributing valuable information to your candidacy. Keep a balance in engagement, demonstrating genuine interest without overwhelming the admissions committee. Utilize these opportunities to strengthen your position on the waitlist.
