HEC Lausanne MScM Admission

Thank you!

No I didn't, just a letter (I did get the email saying that they received my application though)

Hello guys,

I also got my acceptance letter (via e-mail and regular post). I also got a post by the faculty saying that the Admission Office may impose additional conditions, though this letter was sent on Mar 25. The one from the Admission Office was from Mar 27, meaning I have no additional conditions attached to my studies. I assume

Best of luck and looking for hearing from the newcomers this September in Lausanne.

Btw, I am in MSc Economics, not medicine as probably most of you in this threat are.

I got into the program for a Master in Management.

For a lot of people, the additional conditions are something in the line : You have to finish your Bachelor's degree before starting your Master. I feel like there's not much to worry about.

Congratulations !! Can I ask, when did u apply and when u got the acceptance letter. Just to get an idea about the time frame

@bhu7

Sure, you can.

I submitted my application documents around Feb 10 and just a few days after that I got a confirmation e-mail (that they received my documents).

I got the acceptance letter on Mar 27 at 17:21pm BG time It was a nice shock, I would say

Good luck with the application!

Congratulations @GoldenPei and @flbg !

Any other international applicants who received their admission decision? (I haven't received mine yet and I'm merely trying to position myself in the pool of international candidates for the M.Sc.Management) ..

Do you think the answers might take longer because of Easter Break ?

Hello everyone!!

I applied to MSc Finance at UNIL as an international student, and I find myself in the same situation... they received my documents on February the 24th and I am still waiting for a response. If you can post anything that may be useful that would be wonderful.

Jbailey did you do a normal application or did you ask for a grant or anything special? 2 months is a very long time, I do not want to wait that long!

Thank you!

@Eduu

I have sent a regular application (without any grant request), my documents were received by January 26th, so roughly this has been 10 weeks that I am waiting for "the response" (positive or negative) ... It's really frustrating ..

I've sent an email to the study advisor at HEC Lausanne's graduate school inquiring about how long does the whole process take and her email said:

----------------------------------------

Hello,

Our reply may take up to 3 months.

Thank you for your understanding.

Cordialement,

Best regards,

----------------------------------------

I hope this helps and again it would be helpful if other international applicants could share whether they received their letters or not ..

Gd luck everyone!

@jbailey

Wow that is some bad news, I was expecting it to arrive next week the latest but now.. hahah

I will post it here if I get any new info about it and yeah, It would be great if offer-holders could share their experience!

Good luck and thanks!

Hello!

Has nobody received any notification yet?!?!? I can't believe they take so long! From my part, I called the admissions office and all they told me was "it is under progress", which was kind of a let down as I thought they would have sent it by that time, but nope.

@jbailey for you next Sunday it's gonna be 3 months since you sent it right? so you should get a reply by this week according to the email they sent you yeah?

please people post anything you know about it!!

Thanks and good luck with the application!

Dear All,

I received an acceptance letter on Friday, it was sent to me on April 20th. In my case the application process took two months.

Good luck to all of you!

Hello everyone,

I also applied to the masters of science in management at HEC Lausanne. I applied at the end of february. Documents were received beginng march. I received an email at the beginning of april stating that my application is under review so still waiting for an answer. Did anyone else also receve an email?

did you email them? I applied the same time and still have not heard anything!

yes i did and didn't hear anything as well. I don't know why it is taking such a long time.

Hey! I'm an international student. I applied on the 20th of March and they sent me an email a few days later to confirm the applicaiton. Since then, no news! It's only been a month, so I don't really worry.

Hi everyone

I'm from Brazil and I applied for a master of science in behaviour, evolution and conservation at UNIL. I'm still waiting for the decision. I emailed school of biology and they said:

Dear Madam,

We confirm that your application has been received.

It is now under the process of examination to check if your academical track is in adequacy with the chosen Master to guarantee you the maximum of success.

We do our best to do it quickly, but we cannot tell you when the decision will be made.

Thanks for your understanding.

I received this email on April 13th.

I know it's not HEC, but it's UNIL, so I just wanted to share with someone the anxiety of waiting

So i just called the Master's department and they told me that they received my application on the 13th of April and that they do not know when they will inform of me a decision!

I know most of you may have already got ur respective decision letter. In any case, I think they may take till mid May to give u any decision.

I remember getting my decision on the 6th of May three years ago

Hope that helps!!

In any case. Good luck to u all!!

Apparently it takes longer for candidates outside Europe to get the decision letter - ironically, cause we need to apply for a student visa..

By the way.. thanks, GodWilling!

I think it's because UNIL is less familiar with non-European degrees so they have to pay attention to more details before sending out acceptance letters...

Usually student Visas don't take to much time in Switzerland so if you get your acceptance letter before the end of June it should be fine
