So for those who haven't recieved invites yet, just sit back and relax.
I submitted mine on Nov. 01, received inviation one one week after. Have scheduled for a campus visit on 23rd.
GMAT 750/6.0 WE: 4.5 years till 2011 Fall Graduate GPA: 3.64
Have been tortured by the waiting for Yale and Johnson so I wasn't gonna report my Tepper status. But then I figured it might be helpful for some people.
Good luck to us all. Wow ? I 'thought' the last date for R1 was 25th Oct. Here you say you submitted your app on 1st Nov, got an invite the next week and have you interview (which I assume would be part of your campus visit) on 23rd ! Are they counting you for R1 ? Or am I missing something ?

Or am I missing something ?  That's why I don't think they read the application packages carefully before extending invitations. It looks like the invitations are sent on a rolling basis and pretty much every applicant gets invited.

My Application status: "Stage 3: Under review..." No interview invite for me yet. It seems CMU is not strictly adhering to the published deadlines.

HTH Amber I guess Krystal asks similar questions to everybody . My list was more or less the same too. Lets sit back and pray now Amber you from India ? If yes, I believe a lot of Indians have got invites from Tepper. I also know a couple of my friends who have got 'em. Hope that answers your question, passion4ivymba.

What kind of clothes should I wear for an on-campus interview? I will have the interview tomorrow as well as a campus tour and lunch with current students. I plan to wear a white shirt and a black pencil skirt with a coat which I can take off indoor. Is it too formal?

It won't be weird because they will introduce you to the class at the beginning and everyone will know you're interviewing.

When I was there for visit/interview there was this one girl who wore flannel and dress pants and i hope she didnt do interview as well the same day because that was a no no. Also, did anyone else interview with Krystal Brooks and thought she tried to keep it under 30mins? That interview just not sitting well with me whenever I look back at it...
