And that is precisely why I carefully avoided taking even a glimpse at my submitted essays and materials until I received an invite. Perfect way to stress & freak yourself out.

Can R2 applicant still hope for the interview invite? Given that there are only 13 days left for final decision.

Please read the note below, which indicates what is missing from your application. Please feel free to call or e-mail us if you have any questions regarding these documents. " -- the documents they want are my official academic transcripts IF i'm invited to interview... How about yours?? My application status is just "received". I have submitted it on 16.1. right before deadline. When did you submit? I am little bit worried since from McCombs and Simon I received interview invitation next day after the deadline passed. So I am worried that this waiting from Haas and Stern may be a bad sign.  Hey AlanSmithee - I applied to Haas probably around 12-14 hours before the R3 deadline. And I don't think you should be worrying yet.. No one from R3 seems to have gotten an invite Let's just wait and see where we get with this! Good luck do you.

Does anyone from R2 still have the same application status as mine below? Will it change at all? I have not received any update or invite from Haas but I saw some people said their status changed to something else like "final decision will be released" but still have not got updates either. What is the process here? Anyone knows?
Status Description
Your application is ready for review, but we may need additional materials before a final decision can be made. Please read the note below, which indicates what is missing from your application. Please feel free to call or e-mail us if you have any questions regarding these documents.
Additional Notes:
We will require an official transcript from University if you are invited to interview.

My status just changed and now says that my application is under review. I'm not sure if this has any bearing on an interview invite, because maybe everyone not getting interviewed just had their status updated, but figured I'd just share this since this is the only update I've gotten since my submission.

However, according to haas, invites can go out until deadline date. I think people whose application just went under review, still have chances of getting invited. Others too, you never know, you may be next!! Wait until THE day. As for me, I am back to the drawing board trying to reflect on what I did wrong and how to do better the coming year. Meanwhile, if I get lucky and get an invite, I will be thrilled. Posted from my mobile device

FuzzyBuzzard wrote: Haas confuses me. On the 8/14/12 online chat, it reads: Quote: The interview process starts a few weeks after the round deadline, but will continue right up to the decision release deadline given the volume of applications and our holistic approach to evaluating every application.
So the interviews are conducted up until the decision deadline. However, 4 months later, on the 12/13/12 online chat, it reads regarding the interview process (R1 in this case): Quote: As Stephanie mentioned in her email update this week we will continue to send out Round 1 interview invites up until the notification deadline in January.
So invites are sent up until the notification deadline, as opposed to what stated earlier. Do you understand this differently and care to clear things out for me? Honestly, I think they mean the same thing, but are just worded differently. I always personally understood that to mean that they could invite you to interview up to the deadline date. So if the notification date is on 2/21, you could theoretically get an interview invite on 2/20. I don't know how they will do that- notify, interview, make a final decision, give an admissions offer- in 24 hours, but I guess that is their MO. Perhaps if they have X number of offers to extend, and by the end of the round they still have a few spaces left and you're on the cusp, they then decide to interview you. I guess all in all, if you're someone who hasn't heard yet, don't lose hope until they release decisions. I know- easier said than done.

At this point, with only a little more than a week left, I'm just hoping to get waitlisted.
