Check out Yale's. Succinct and crisp. And the printable app includes all uploaded documents too.

The thing with Booth's application is that it allows copy/paste, which is nice. However, when you copy and paste into text boxes, some of your punctuations turn into question marks, which is a hassle to change back. Allowing for uploading documents creates an easier platform for applicants, most of the time. The uploading automatically turns your document into a PDF file, which basically is a replica of your document, but only in a more secure way. The newly-created PDF file changes absolutely nothing, and can still be viewed.

Interesting. I did not know that about the PDF conversion stuff. In any case, hopefully it's the last time we'll ever use this app interface again :)

Am I the only one, or were others excited to see an e-mail from Booth as well.......only to read "Booth 360 Preparing Students for Successful Internships" as the subject line.

I get so many informational emails from the schools I've applied to, it would probably take me a while to recognize an interview invitation. The only email that gave me a heart attack was the Kellogg email saying that they'd changed one of the essay questions. Fortunately, the question hadn't changed from what I had already answered.

My greatest fear is that when I use the Gmail Priority Inbox, which I rely on everyday to sort through hundreds of daily emails, interview invites or notifications might get lost in the clutter. I'd probably faint if the 'Importance' algorithm failed on me and made miss some important emails.

Quick question

My application status is "Received".

Recommendations verified by office - No
Official Transcript Received - No

Are we supposed to send in an official transcript? I thought all that is needed to apply is a scanned version of the transcript? Let me know if you guys did differently.

Cheers!

I'm in the same position as you. The email I received after submitting my application on 10/13 said to call them on Friday 10/29 if the status doesn't change from "Received" to "Complete"

Once you are admitted, then you have to send your official transcript.

So no, we are not supposed to send in an official transcript.

Wednesday can't come soon enough! But the 2 week release window is going to be the killer...I think I prefer Wharton's 2 release dates.

The Admissions Committee will begin to release interview invitations on Wednesday, October 27th and will continue this process through Wednesday, November 10th. Look for an email that asks you to check your status via the Online Application System. If your status reads Invite to Interview, the Admissions Committee believes an interview will help us further evaluate your admission credentials. We will provide detailed instructions on scheduling your interview.
