Navigating the Reapplication Journey Rejection can be mentally and emotionally draining! No one likes them, but at the same time, it is a part of life. Some of the most successful stories have been from initial failures which were turned around through sheer passion and perseverance. If you encountered rejection in the last application, don’t worry, take a step back and introspect on your last experience. What to do next? First, analyze the reason for rejection. A good starting point can be reaching out to the admissions committee, however, not all would be open to providing feedback. In case they do, admission committee members when evaluating your reapplication, look at how well you addressed the concerns provided in the feedback. Secondly, when the new program’s new class profile is published, benchmark your application against the median to see if you were competitive in the application pool. While historical class profiles can also be a good indicator, do note that the application pool varies year on year and hence there are chances that old data may not yield an effective peer analysis.

Waitlisted: Now What? Getting waitlisted by your dream college can put you in a quagmire at the very outset. It is understandable if the first emotion is one of restlessness before you think about the next step. Once the prima facie disappointment is over, it is time for an emotional as well as an application overhaul. It is necessary to clear your mind, take a deep breath, and examine what is the next step. What is waitlisting? Every year colleges receive thousands of applications not only from the residents of the country but students all over the world. There are usually only a few hundred seats for thousands of applications. It usually means the candidate is a good fit, but the school has reached its admission capacity, and he or she must ‘wait’ until a spot falls vacant. This depends on how many of the admitted students choose to attend the school finally. Sometimes colleges have their internal diversity commitments and profile targets which can result in some exceptional applicants being put on the waitlist. Thus, being waitlisted can also be due to some external factors that maybe beyond the applicants control in that particular year.

The Importance of Personal Branding for Business School Applications A brand helps people know about the company or product or person even before any kind of engagement takes place. Extending this description, we can also understand what personal branding is and why it is important. In simple terminology, personal branding is how you want to portray yourself to the external world. This holds especially true for your business school applications and your professional career. Personal Brand: The right fit In business school applications, the admissions committee analyzing your application wants to know whether you are a good fit for their program, and do you, that is, does your personal brand fit with the school. Each business school has its own mission statement and core sets of values that lay the foundation for its community. While evaluating potential candidates, they often look for people who have exhibited these values in their lives and have shown a commitment to further their mission statement in the future. Thus, your personal brand needs to showcase a strong cultural fit with the school’s community and their value system. That is why it becomes necessary to individualize your business school application, and not copy paste a generic statement of purpose or essay for every program you are applying to.
