We met at a Starbucks in Atlanta. It was a blind interview with an alum. The interview went well – there was nothing too surprising but the alum did ask if I had visited campus and noted that admissions does closely monitor who makes the effort to visit. They asked a lot of behavioral questions.

Dear International Applicants,
To increase your chances of receiving an offer, try to participate in webinars several times. Listen carefully to the admissions committees, as they provide valuable insights and guidance on preparing for MBA essays and interviews. Additionally, reach out to current students. I understand that it can be challenging to connect with them, but persistence pays off. In my case, only two out of ten student ambassadors responded, but their feedback was invaluable.
Also, request at least two mock interviews with them if possible. Beyond that, try to connect with alumni, as they play a key role in supporting applicants. Their endorsement can demonstrate to MBA schools that you are genuinely interested and committed to the program.
I mention these strategies because I encountered these challenges myself, and they helped me greatly along the way.
Best of luck!
