The Application Process

Hi,
I applied second round to Haas for the full time MBA program and have not heard back yet. I am getting a little concerned becuase the decision date is on feb 22. Furthermore, I have to inform Yale of my final acceptance decision as of March 1, 2013. If Haas says no, then there is no issue of choice. What if Haas puts me on the waitlist? I am interested in Haas, so should I inform them of my situation now? Help!

There is nothing to tell Haas, you will still time to make a decision. If you get waitlisted, and want to wait around for Haas, then put your deposit down at Yale and forfeit it if you get into Haas. Sucks to lose a few thousand dollars, but better to leave open the option to go to Haas if that is where you want to be.

I think you can inform them, why not? let them know that Haas is your 1st choice and gently ask for an update regarding your application.

Yale claims there is no deposit policy, which means my hand is forced.

When you put down the enrollment deposit, but get into another school later, can you just withdraw your enrollment from the first school?

I think I might have misunderstood your comment, michigander3. I believe your comment might have been a response to my enrollment question that I put up. If so, then thanks!
