Based on LiveWire reports, applicants have been invited to interview at Cambridge Judge Business School within three to six weeks of the respective deadline, sometimes faster in later rounds. Interviews may be conducted on campus or virtually. Cambridge Judge also hosts a Virtual Interview Day during each round. For the 2025-2026 admissions season, these special days land on: September 26th, November 7th, February 13th, April 24th and May 29th. During a given Virtual Interview Day experience, interviewees meet the MBA admissions team, connect with the careers team, network with fellow interview candidates, and hear directly from current students and alumni in a dedicated Q&A panel.
The Admissions Committee will notify candidates of a conditional offer within three weeks of their interview date. Admissions must be informed of a candidate’s decision within three weeks, and if accepted, a commitment of 15% of the program fee and a financial guarantee that the costs of the program can be paid are required before an unconditional offer is extended.

1. I want advise on how to build my profile to make me an ideal candidate for R1 acceptance and $$$
I have worked for over 10 years in sales and business development and I am currently completing a PostGraduate Diploma in Banking and Finance and I need an a good MBA to enable me pivot into financial services.
Currently working in consulting with a major FMCG/alcobev client, mainly across analytics, supply, and business problem-solving work. Over time, I’ve realized I enjoy understanding why problems exist within organizations and how teams, systems, and decisions can work better together, which is what’s pushing me towards strategy consulting and an MBA.
A lot of my interest in business also comes from seeing how everyday products and operations work behind the scenes. Outside work, I co-founded and ran a digital literacy initiative (1yr 2mo) during COVID where we helped elderly individuals and women from underserved communities learn basic digital tools to stay connected and manage daily activities during lockdown.
I’m currently preparing for the GMAT and exploring schools such as LBS, Fuqua, Ross, Tuck, and a few reach schools depending on how the score progresses.
Veteran. Ivy League undergrad. Planning to pivot into consulting or LDP.
