No, we do not have a waiting list of successful candidates. BBA Program already includes the risk of applicants not choosing to confirm their seats by adding more successful candidates. Therefore, we always announce more successful candidates than the aimed number of intakes for both rounds so that ultimately, we will have the closest number of students to the desired number.
