Congrats to all those accepted and a special hug to all those that were dinged after interviewing. what does the blue mean? u r going to Chicago over Wharton? edited: Ok figured out the color coding system...good luck

found myself in probably the most precarious of buckets....W/L w/no int not really going to do anything to pursue this, i don't think i want HBS that badly. congrats to the admits, and chin up to the dings - if you got an interview from HBS, you're doing something right in life

Big congrats to those who got in.
To meridian17, torontogirl, RonMexico, LB20, and Kohlia - I see you guys have also gotten into several other places -many of those with fellowship money. Would you without a doubt choose HBS over them?
I'm fortunate to get into Wharton in R1 with $20,000 fellowship. Already paid my $2,000 deposit so if I choose HBS that would mean giving up $22,000. Just want to hear what you guys would choose if you were me.

For the roll-call: ding without interview. Yesterday was painless for me. I only applied to HBS to feed my ego and say no to it. Guess they said no to me:)
pilot: I'd choose Wharton. Especially with a fellowship. But that's just me. Their programs are totally different, so different that it should be easy to make a decision.
Best to all, lets enjoy the ride!

Just want to hear what you guys would choose if you were me. you should wait and see what type of grant/general scholarship money they give you. even without being alerted of a "fellowship" most people at HBS receive some sort of free money in their aid package

I wish I knew why I got interviewed and then rejected... -low WE (2 years)? -bad interview (didn't SEEM bad but I guess I rambled)? -no GMAT score (I only submitted GRE)? Those are my best guesses...this sucks...now I have to find a job in this spectacular economy  Congratulations to all those who got in!

I just wanted to thank everyone who posted the past few months...you have contributed greatly to my sanity!
I was admitted to HBS in R2. I had just taken the GMAT in December, so this has been quite a ride for me!
Congrats to all R2 admits!

I was able to login with any issue and start the Kroll process. It's so annoying when you have to fax something though. I managed to start the process as well. Need to do the faxing...
