If it helps:

In round 1 they sent out a few invites extremely early. Then most of the US ones came out at 3 pm the week about three weeks after the deadline. I'd keep an eye out Wednesday the 4th, early to late afternoon.

The interview was a good time, best of luck to everyone!


Tks! Your info was so much clearer than someone above that seemed to be just spreading terror by stating that "several" invites had been released.

FROM Sloan Admissions Blog: The MIT Sloan Admissions staff is busy reviewing MBA Round 2 applications.
We will send Round 2 interview invitations beginning the week of February 16th.

Interviews will take place on campus in Cambridge, as well as in 15 additional cities in North America, South America, Europe, and Asia. Specific dates and locations are forthcoming, and interviewees will receive at least one week notice before their interview. You will have the option to either meet us in the location closest to your current address, or join us on campus in Cambridge. Interviews are conducted by the MIT Sloan Admissions staff—not by students or alumni. The email invitation will include more detailed information about the interview process.

The behavioral-based interview will have three components:

You may be asked follow-up questions from your application. For example, your interviewer might ask you to elaborate on your academic and/or professional experiences, or provide more detail on a specific example.

You will be asked behavioral questions that will give evidence of certain competencies. For example: “Describe a situation where you had a conflict with another individual, and how did you deal with it?”

Finally, we will give you the opportunity to ask us any questions.

If you are not invited for an interview, you will receive a final decision from us by March 6th. We appreciate your patience as you wait for your decision.

Has anyone who used slideshare to upload a PowerPoint presentation for their optional essay received any views from the Boston area?


I had one view from Boston mid-Jan and one view from Key Largo last week. Working on vacation, what dedication!

I wasn't trying to spread terror and I apologize if I added any additional stress to the R2 applicant pool. Good luck to everyone!!!

I know how frustrating it is to wait for MBA interview invites, I went through the process last year. I just finished analyzing MIT acceptance rate, which may give you some insight into your odds of admissions. Best of luck in the process. If you leave a comment on the article with your stats I would be happy to calculate your odds of admissions.

Looks like round 2 is taking longer than round 1. Makes sense, especially with the snow. Sorry if I got anybody's hopes up, I can only talk from my experience a few months ago!

Nobody's gonna put a stake through your heart. :P
These admission processes can sometimes be quite random.

Mine has been viewed a couple of times on the 31st, but not from the Boston area. The location shows as Mountain View, USA. Not sure if that's a hit from the admissions staff.

Am I the only one who didn't do the optional essay? Guess I must have overlooked it... I thought it was just like the "additional information" section of other apps rather than being "optional" (but not really optional).

I hadn't either in R1. Still had got the call. A few even got admitted without submitting any thing in that section.

How do you check where views are from?

I need to do that.

I used youtube. I made a video using prezi and screen cap software.

Can youtube take note of this?
