Greetings from Philadelphia,
Spring is in the air here in Philadelphia, which means it’s time for Graduation and Reunion weekend. While bittersweet to send off our Class of 2012, I look forward to welcoming them to the alumni network when they graduate on Sunday. I’m excited to be co-chairing my 5 year Wharton MBA reunion and looking forward to seeing so many of my classmates back on campus.
As an update on our newest class of Wharton MBAs, on Tuesday we released decisions for all Round 3 candidates as well as for some of our candidates on the waitlist. For the candidates we admitted earlier this week, welcome and congratulations again! We look forward to seeing you at our open house in June. For those candidates offered a place on the summer waitlist, you will continue to receive regular email correspondence from us on next steps. For our candidates who were denied, I wanted to thank you for your tremendous efforts and time over the course of the cycle. We wish you all the best in your future endeavors. Should you be interested in reapplying please visit our website which has information on the reapplication process.
I also wanted to thank all of our Round 3 candidates who participated in our Team Based Discussion pilots a few weeks ago. It was exciting for us to see this experience in action; and to enable you to have an experience that highlights the collaborative nature of the Wharton culture. We thank you for your enthusiasm in the sessions and for your valuable feedback. We will continue to digest your input over the next few weeks and will certainly be in touch as we launch next the application for the Class of 2015 later this summer. Please keep an eye out for updates on our website from myself and our office over the coming months.
As we say good-bye to the Class of 2012 and begin to welcome the Class of 2014, we are also incredibly excited to start meeting the Class of 2015. Over the next few months, the Admissions team will begin to circle the globe to host our marketing events, which are a wonderful opportunity for you to get to learn more about the Wharton MBA, meet our alumni and chat with members of the Admissions team. Be sure to check out the dates and locations of our upcoming admissions events on our website to register for an event.
We look forward to seeing you around the globe or here on campus soon.
All the best,
Ankur Kumar
