Ross 2012 - Calling All Applicants

quote="gmatter86"]Looks like the calls have slowed down... doesnt look good for those of us waiting[/quote]

Don't worry about it yet. In case they don't call you today, there's still tomorrow. [/quote]

I wonder how many (if any) calls are left. I feel defeated. I wish they did all the calls in one day and then just sent an email that night to whoever they didn't get to or send emails first and then just call those with scholarships.[/quote]

Its only 230 EST (Michigan time)! Don't give up hope yet.

The past few years threads have as many, if not more, calls going out on the 2nd (and sometimes 3rd) days![/quote]

There will be more calls...

I was admitted last year during round three.

Calls starting being reported on GMATClub on Tuesday (if I remember correctly) and no one reported a call on Wednesday or Thursday. I thought I was done.... then low and behold on Friday morning I received my call. There is no rhyme or reason to it.

Bottom Line: Do not worry, yet.

I remember after the first interview invites went out people who didn't get invited were assuming they were dinged. Pessimism was abound. Not sure why people throw in the towel so early. I was one of the second round of interview invites.

My point is that it is only day 1. There is still more time.

Not to give you false hope, but I have a feeling you're going to get a call...

Thanks everyone. I appreciate the support. I feel silly now. Congrats to everyone who got a call today.

No reason to feel silly, we have all been there! I will be the first to admit that when the first call was reported on here around 950 am, I began feeling that doubt creep into my mind.

Keep your head up and be ready for good news!

can anyone post which number they called? permanent or mobile?

Cell (mobile) for me.

ditto

So when are you quitting work?

Heartiest congratulations to all those who made it in!! All the best to all those still waiting for the call!

Do we know for sure if call = acceptance? I got a message on my cell, but the admissions office just said they'd follow up with an email. Nothing was said about acceptance.

I would assume yes (that would be a cruel trick!), but I don't want to get excited prematurely

awesome! good to know that they leave a message if you don't pick up.

i would think that means u got in. i doubt they call for dings.

just got the call...

The Admissions Blog (1/9 post) did indicate if they can't reach you by phone, they will email. I'd assume yes for you too, but you can really celebrate when that email comes in. I got a call this morning but have not seen an email yet.

I was on a customer call when my cell range - I put that customer went on hold pretty quick. I figured I could apologize later!

I'm IN!!! Got the call at 2.30 PM EST. They left a voicemail as I didn't pickup and I called back to get the good news again
Indian in Phoenix, AZ. Reapplicant (waitlisted) from last year.

rrhallqu, My voicemail also said they'll send a follow-up email but I haven't received one yet. I'm 99% sure that a call = admit but you can call the Admissions to know for sure. The receptionist actually looked up my info and connected to the same Associate Director who called me ... thought that is nice of them!

Congratulations to fellow admits and Good luck to all who are waiting!!

Meant to address cc987, not rrhallqu. Can't type in excitement

:D omg i got in. and with a full-tuition scholarship.

I went 0 for 5 last year, and I really love Ross, so I think I'm ridiculously excited and relieved! I must have been the most rambling person Soojin's called.

Good luck with everyone else with the calls!

Oh, and in Boston.
