What is an MBA Waitlist?
An MBA waitlist is a common outcome when business schools are unable to offer you immediate admission but want to keep you in consideration in case spots open up. Being waitlisted can be a bit nerve-wracking, but it’s far from a rejection. Schools use waitlists to maintain a balanced class and assess how candidates compare to the overall pool. The waitlist can be a second chance to prove that you’re the right fit for their program.
