Declined my Olin offer today. I was offered a good amount of scholarship money, so this should free up a seat and $$ for a hopeful applicant. Good luck!!

Even if it performs it'll ask your employer for a time before they call. So, you should anyhow keep your employer(s) updated.

Round 4 applicant here. No update still. People in R4 have even received admits. Should I get over with Olin?
PS: the application portal says don't email us asking for the status. you won't be provided with any.

All I can say is, don't give up hope, guys.

I applied in R3, and right when I'd given up all hope, I got an interview invite on March 17th, barely two weeks before the deadline. As it turned out, I got an admit. I hope you guys make it, too!

Congrats ..!!
I am looking for filling out my application the next year round 1
As you are already enrolled can you plz lemme know as to how to approach my essays and everything
I don't believe in the admission consultancy services hence I will be doing everything on my own
Did you take any consultancy help ?
If yes did that that help you
And lastly what did they really stress and ask on the interview

Please feel free to skip any question you may not want to answer

Again - congratulations ..!!
And all the best
Stone cold :)

Guyz I am done with the interview. IMHO, it went well!!! Fingers crossed.

It went for about 25 mins.

Following questions were asked:

1) Run me through your resume.
2) Why olin
3) How will you contribute to Olin
4) Strengths
5) What I seek to learn at Olin
6) Any difficult situation I faced at work
7) Anything I would like to add?

I am surprised as it was taken by one of the current MBA student CO 2016 - Is it ok that adcom did not interview me?. I got an invite on 8th and was interviewed on 10th.

She asked about
Why MBA?
Why now?
Why Olin?
She went through my resume and asked what are my major achievements in the resume.
Talk about a major leadership example from your professional life as well as personal.
Why do MBA now, why not continue in your company?

At last she asked if I had any question for her.

She was pretty friendly and interview was normal. So no need to worry. :)
