I visited the campus last month and requested for an interview. It was a very typical MBA interview. The typical questions of Tell me about yourself. Why MBA now?Why Tepper? What you can bring to the community?

It was like a conversation with each answer leading to the next question. It was very casual. Let me now if you want to know something specific. I will try and answer.


Thanks for the reply :) Did you get cross questioned on any of your responses? And how was the overall experience? Were there any unusual question?

Hi I am from India as well. I was interviewed through skype, but you get an option to choose between telephonic/skype interview. My status is the same as yours, but my interview is already done. I hope this helps. Thanks

@mojorising800: My application status changed to Stage 3 after my interview. Did you check the last year thread to understand what does that mean?

Well after spending considerable time reading previous year's thread , i believe that this status will remain until the ad com has finished reviewing the application.
Hope for the best. :lol:

So long as they do it like they did last year, ALL decisions come out at the exact same time, via e-mail.

Keep up the hope - the admissions team personally handles all aspects of the decision process (they don't outsource anything in that regard to us students) so I would imagine they are still working through all of the applications.

@vixer-Thanks a ton.
one more thing...in my status window..against my undergrad docs it is mentioned --[NOT OFFICIAL ..RECEIVED].
rest of the docs are displayed as [OFFICIAL....RECEIVED].
What does that mean? Do i need to talk to the adcom for the same? Anybody else also came across similar thing?

It is because we have uploaded scanned copy of the transcript - so it is not official. Once a person gets admitted, he needs to submit the official copy of the transcript. I hope the information helps.

Thanks.

Does anyone know how many days they give an accepted applicant to confirm his seat? Just out of curiosity. :)

Where are those dates from? I can't seem to find it online. They seem odd to me (totally apologize for the ignorance if I am wrong) but I didn't think Tepper had Early Action. Also, R1 deadline was October...not in November.


Looks like those are Tuck dates?

It's on the website:
Quote:
ACCEPTED APPLICANTS
All accepted applicants who wish to reserve a seat in the incoming class must submit a nonrefundable deposit (which is applied against tuition) as follows:

Early Action round deposit: $4,000; due January 20, 2012.
November round deposit: $2,500; due April 27, 2012.
January round deposit: $2,500; due April 27, 2012.
April round deposit: $2,500; due June 1, 2012.
November Consortium: $2,500; due April 27, 2012.
January Consortium: $2,500; due April 27, 2012.


Ya I dont think these are dates for Tepper. Tepper does not have a November round.
