I also never received the email for the link for the supplemental fee. I reached out to them as well and did not receive an email after they said they reset the link. I also checked my spam. I am thinking I will need to reach out to them again if I do not get it soon. Let me know if anything changes for you. So I emailed them and they responded stating: "Thank you for your email. We do apologize as we’ve ran into some technical difficulties with our student portal. Rest assured that your application will be acknowledged as a priority application. We will provide you with another link as soon as we resolve these technical issues." I guess the technical issue is still present ...

ellieg Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 Is MKBU a "real" non-rolling school? I know some schools label themselves as non-rolling but have rolling interviews or "slow rolling" admissions. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know some schools label themselves as non-rolling but have rolling interviews or "slow rolling" admissions. Thanks! It is a yes and a no. From last cycle, every applicant that applied before September 1st, will get a response at around November either with an interview invite, rejection, or MBKU will push your application review later with the rest of the applicants. So in this respect, it isnt rolling. Now, after that first round of interviews, it is rolling admissions with applicants that submitted after September 1st and those who had their application review delayed. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fishtale Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 Should I go to the website and create and account to pay, or should I wait for them to email me to pay/account info sign up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to wait until MBKU emails you because they are the ones who are going to provide you the username and password that they set up personally for you.

Fishtale Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Question, my application was verified earlier in September but I still haven't gotten the payment link. If I don't get payment link before the deadline does that mean my application will be tossed out/not looked at? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashleyp19 Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 If our CASPA was submitted before the priority deadline of September 1st, will be still be considered for meeting the priority deadline due to their technical difficulties with the supplemental app fee and student portal?

I would contact the admissions director to clarify this but it doesn’t seem like you should be penalized for it because it’s a slow down on their part.

So, that could mean the 1st or the very last day. Those that submitted before September 1st will get a response by then. Those that applied after are interviewed January. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if this will be pushed back because of COVID. I don’t believe we will be notified any earlier than November. Good luck! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a re-applicant. Last year, I heard back around mid November, so I'd say around that time. This was for priority applicants only. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don’t know I totally understand. I intended to apply early before the priority date, but didn’t end up doing so until much later due to some family health struggles.

They dont really share the breakdown but priority doesn't really harm one's chances if one applied passed the priority date because a lot of the priority applicants will be rejected or pushed for review with the remaining applicants that applied post September 1st. Also, so many priority students are waitlisted and taken off the waitlist at about the time the applicants in the last interview date are accepted. So, when the time comes, just be your best personable and professional self Also, I pray for your family's wellbeing. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have an exact number but people definitely were accepted before the second round of interviews. I do know if you apply before the priority deadline, your application gets considered twice. Once for the priority interviews and once again for the general interviews (if you didn’t get a priority interview). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
