Anderson Days Recap

A-Days was a rousing success this past weekend, making it our most heavily attended preview weekend; we hosted close to 250 incoming students and significant others on campus. This great event is organized jointly by the MBA Admissions office and countless student and faculty volunteers who make it possible for us to provide a small glimpse into life and culture at UCLA Anderson.

Remaining Round 2 Decisions Released

Early this morning, the MBA Admissions Office released our remaining Round 2 decisions.  Once again it was difficult to select our admits from the variety of great folks we got to know on-screen. 

Candidates who are on the wait list should check their emails for a status update request.  Submitting additional information for the admissions committee's consideration is possible, as explained in our waitlist guidelines blog post. Applicants waitlisted without an interview will be notified via email to schedule an interview with us shortly.

Thank you for your spirit and for sharing your stories with us throughout this process!  

To those applying for our final round, remember the Round 3 application deadline is Wednesday, April 17th.
