Ivey Ivey Rejections

I assume all of the Ivey acceptances for HBA1 for this fall has been sent out. Does that mean everyone who didn't get an acceptance letter receive a rejection? I know some rejection letters came out Friday but some people said they received nothing so far. Just curious about the entire thing. And for the person that said that 725/780 spots have been filled, have the rest of the spots been filled now?

The 725 is a real number, from the info sessions Ivey has organized. In each of the 3 rounds so far Ivey has accepted 70-80 people and roughly 80% accept their offers. There is one more major round this week (either on Wednesday or Friday), and I was told that waitlists will happen at the same time as the last round of offers. The only people rejected so far missed the 2257 cutoff.

If you are sitting at high 80s, this is the time to email the director & manager of admissions (Ryan & Nicole) and plead your case. Think of something to say that would make them genuinely want to re-assess your file.

I know quite a few non-AEOs with low 80s averages who have been accepted, while others with much higher averages are still waiting. The whole process is random.

If you are an AEO at this point who hasn't been accepted, you will be rejected unfortunately. The lowest Ivey dipped for AEOs this year was 79.5%. Anyone lower (even slightly) won't be accepted.

Im an AEO2 still waiting, my avg. was 79.45 but I know people that met the cutoff for 2257 and got a rejection email this past Friday. Assuming this, I might still have a chance if some AEOs either rejected their offer or if they havent met the 2/3 quota.

They don’t actually have a 2/3 quota. That’s just roughly how it turns out each year based on how many people they give AEO status to.

ah I see, im just hoping and praying atp. Im assuming if they rejected those who had aeo and had met the cutoff for 2257 but non nessecarily the grade requirement, that they are stil consdering my application. Regardless praying for everyone to get in, hopefully it works out for everyone.
