Here is the list of Olin's Class of 2011:

https://apps.olin.wustl.edu/faces/studen ... &year=2011

Those admitted can contact these grads and get better idea of things at Olin.


There is no contact info for those people, if anyone wants i can put them touch with the student ambassadors here at olin, they are current students and alum who have said they want to share their thoughts specifically with new students. Trust me they will be very candid.

I don't think your response rate is going to be very good by randomly contacting recent grads. Some of those people are also ambassadors tough.

Received an interview invitation today. Applied for Round 3. Any idea when I can expect a confirmation mail once I am done with the interview?

What is the acceptance rate among those invited for the interview?

Re: Olin 2012 - Calling all Washington University Applicants [#permalink]
Hi Olin applicants! FYI if you're applying to Olin through the Consortium Graduate Study in Management (CGSM), hop over to the Consortium 2012 Forum and Update Your Profile to join the Consortium roll call.

It's simple. Just select your school as "Consortium, the", then indicate which specific institution(s) you'll be applying to, make sure your application cycle is 2011-2012 and the Consortium round (CGSM1 or CGSM2) you be applied in. You can do all of this easily through the handy 'Add to Your Schools' link on the front page of the Consortium 2012 Forum.

We have a special analytics specifically for those candidates applying via Consortium and lots of conversation specific to Consortium candidates and the school(s) they are applying to.

Come and join the conversation! Cheers!

Re: Olin 2012 - Calling all Washington University Applicants [#permalink]
Congrats to everyone that got admitted and good luck to those who are still applying.

The enrollment deposit is Feb 15, which is so soon. Although, Olin is one of my top choices, I don't think I would hear by from many of my other schools by then.

Does anyone know what to do in this case?

Does anyone here know how long it typically takes for the AdComm to review apps?
It appears to me that the AdComm review apps almost as soon as they are in, and shortlisted candidates are asked to interview within a week. Has anyone received an invite to interview a few weeks after they have submitted their apps? I am in for R3 but have yet to hear from the AdComm. I am as hopeful as I am anxious. Looking to get some clarification here. Thanks guys!

Got an interview invite in 3 weeks or so after the application submission deadline. Postponed the the interview for 6 weeks because of scheduling conflicts. Got a notice with 2 weeks since the interview.

Well, I think Olin has the Washington University's brand name behind it - ranked at 14th in US Nwes.

Personally, go wherever you are personally inclined. It will help you to give your best!!

Thanks for your reply, darwingwang :) You gave me hope, which is one of, if not, the most important thing that keeps all MBA applicants going during the admissions cycle. I am quite optimistic about my chances of getting into Olin.

Re: Olin 2012 - Calling all Washington University Applicants [#permalink]
Finished my skype interview with Kevin Kiley yesterday. Very straight forward and conversational. It was the only interview I've received pushback on my career goals, but it gave me a chance to really sell them and show how much research I've put into my plans.

Hoping for a good result, good luck to everyone else still in the process!

Got the admit call from Evan this afternoon. CGSM R1 applicant, no mention of $, he said they'll make some decisions in March during the draft. Good news, at least! :-D
