Factors Influencing Waitlist Movement

Several elements contribute to the fluctuation in waitlist numbers:

  • Number of Seats Available: An increase in the total number of seats can lead to more movement on the waitlist.
  • Yield Rate: The percentage of shortlisted candidates who accept the offer. A lower yield rate means more movement. 
  • Program and Category: Waitlist movement can differ across programs  (PGDM vs. BM) and admission categories (General vs. Others).

Strategies for Waitlisted Candidates

For those on the waitlist, don't lose hope. Here are some tips:

  • Reaffirm Interest: Contact XLRI admissions to let them know your strong interest in the program. Following up usually increases your chances of getting an admission.
  • Update Profile: Share any new achievements or qualifications that strengthen your application, as it may improve your chances.
  • Stay Informed: Regularly check official communications from XLRI regarding waitlist updates. Following updates means you are already one step ahead.
  • Explore Alternatives: While awaiting XLRI's decision, consider other institutions where you've been shortlisted; you should have a backup plan ready.
