got the call at around 10 pm Chicago time. a little but surreal. kellogg is my top choice, but i felt the interview didn't go well. however, no email or package as of yet. having paranoid thoughts that somebody may have played a prank on me. i hope not. did anyone hear about scholarship/funding?
i wish all of you the best.

Ha ha Kabir31, Let those thoughts go. I am dead sure it was a genuine call so congratulation on your admit and welcome aboard. BTW are you based out of India?? Also hearty congrats to all the other round two admits. Do join the official facebook group for the Class of 2014 admits as there are many other eager round one admits (such as myself) waiting to get to know our fellow classmates. Siddharth

Wow I am exhausted from thinking about this. I can't seem to concentrate on anything for more than 15 min.

I know that most of the times schools call their accepted students a day before, I thought that Kellogg notified on the 26th and today is only the 20th.
Maybe I missed something but can someone tell me why so many people are hearing so many days before the 26th?

Slow day! Would have expected more activity. There is very little probability that they informed a bulk of the admits yesterday, esp. given that this is the round that sees most offers being made (if I am wrong, time to move on). Kellogg, did you decide to take a siesta? Wakie wakie, there are a lot of folks delirious from insomnia!

This reminds me of that episode from How I Met Your Mother where Barney is waiting to be slapped by Marshall. When Barney knew when Marshall was going to slap him, Barney was mentally prepared for the worst for that day. But when he didn't know when he was going to get slapped, Barney went completely nuts in anticipation of the slap.
That's what's happening to me right now. I LOVE this post... and How I met your mother... I feel the same way!

Congrats to all of today's admits and good luck with your remaining schools to those who were dinged. One of my coworkers got the call today so I know that the admits should keep coming through the week. Best wishes to those still waiting!

PS: I dunno what's with blonde chicks named Quinn. Both Quinn Fabray (from Glee) and Quinn from HIMYM are very intriguing characters  .

I got the call on my way home from work. It was after 5pm EST and I was beyond relieved.

So I got the call and email yesterday, but no status update on my application page. I've heard of horrifying freak incidents with people told that they got in, only to find out it was in error when their status updated.
Does everyone who got in have an updated status?
