The dreaded round 3 application......

by Orion007 » Sat Dec 20, 2014 11:02 pm
Hi guys,

I'm new here so I apologize if this has been asked before (did read the "Round 3 Attracts Maverick MBA Applicants" thread though)

The idea of getting my MBA came to me pretty late in the game. Due to family reasons, I need to stay local and do part time, making UCLA part time ideal.

However, at this point, I can only really make the 3rd round application deadline and I'd have to rush just a bit.

In this case, should I wait to apply next year in first round when more spots are available thus giving me a higher chance of admission?

If I apply round 3 this year and don't get in, does that have any effect, positive or negative, if I re-applied next year?

Thanks.

If you are American, and you are applying to the PT program, just go for it in R3. Things are MUCH more flexible for the PT programs, and if starting quicker is advantageous to you, then take your shot.

Best,

Jon
