Hi Stacy,

I have a doubt regarding whether admission in Round 3 (for B-Schools with more than 3 rounds) is a possibility for International Students. After checking the various forums, I have an idea that it may be possible if we submit the a good application well before the deadline. Though, scholarship may be out of reach.

What are your thoughts regarding this?

Thanks,
Sy

Hi sy,

Thanks for posting. Final rounds for a given school (be it round 3 or round 4) are often a bad strategy. For many schools, this is the time they are focused on completing their class and picking very specific profiles. In addition, if you submit an application in March and are not admitted, you do not have much time to regroup and improve your profile before reapplying in October for the next season.

Please let me know if this answers your question. I hope this was of help.

Best,

Conrad and the Stacy Blackman Team
