Wondering why they take so much time if the cohort size is relatively much smaller as compared to MBA program.

Guys any response would be greatly appreciated!

Same here. Applied R3 on 5/31 and no response so far.

Oh, alright. Has anyone else received the interview yet?

Have to say you are right… Never seen a case like us who will be given admission in the end… In this forum I saw a case where the applicant was held but given a interview afterwards… He was admitted though.

You are right on the course part… very expensive… good on my career but I have taken some of them(but they don’t approve it).

Hey, I have also been on the hold list since June 4 after an interview for round2. However, they offered me a second interview after that. All I did is finishing some items on the preparation list. I hope it's still possible for us to get an admission. You could finish some items that don't cost you much money or time and wait for feedback from the admission committee (probably a second interview).

And could you help me find the post of the guy who was held but then got admitted? Thanks!

Coursera is currently giving free access to their courses if you're a university students having a education email so I guess you can give it a shot
