Wharton EMBA Waitlist – And How to Still Gain Admissions
Today, December 21, 2023, Wharton informed Round 1 candidates about the status of their Wharton EMBA applications. Some candidates received highly desired admissions letters. For those candidates placed on the Wharton EMBA waitlist, the outcome can feel disappointing. But admission is still possible. Implementing an excellent waitlist strategy is crucial.
To navigate the Wharton EMBA waitlist, it’s important to reflect on potential application pitfalls. A solid Wharton EMBA Waitlist Strategy can boost your chances. Consider these actions:
- Address weaknesses: Identify the weaknesses of your application and try to correct them. For example, show Wharton you’re working on that low quantitative score.
- Reiterate your interest and what you can bring: Write a short letter showcasing your passion for Wharton. Also include information to highlight all the strengths and unique experiences you can bring to enrich the learning environment.
- Garner additional recommendations: Enlist new advocates to highlight your strengths. Provide one or two recommendations if the school is willing to accept them.
- Stay engaged: Connect with Wharton representatives, alumni, and attend events. Update the school about your engagement.
- Boost your profile: Continue achieving professionally, academically, or in extracurriculars. Update the school about any notable achievements that enhance your profile.
Remember, success stories abound for those initially waitlisted. Don’t give up! With the right approach, you might be able to move from the Wharton EMBA waitlist to admission.
