Congratulations to all of the admits! It is nice to see there is finally movement in the ED pool. Out of curiosity, for the international applicants or those outside of the US, what time of day did you receive your call?

In the education page of the application, we have to enter a GPA. I completed my Undergraduation in India, and my transcript mentions total marks I secured.

The GPA box only accepts x.x format.

Any advice?

@BlueRobin I dont know if this is too late for you. I was in a similar situation. I emailed Adcom and asked them if I could provide the GPA converted using WES. They said I could at least in my case since there was no other go. I strongly recommend you contact the Adcom. They are extremely helpful and prompt too.

cheers!

I submitted my app on 10/1 for ED. Has anyone here submitted their application during the same time frame as mine? When do you expect to see any changes in the status of your app?

I sent 10/2 in the evening. No clue on when I expect to hear back. The dings are worrying (especially of the folks w/super gmats).

Cool! I don't think they will see GMAT score alone as either overly positive or negative. It could be a coincidence. Anyway good luck to you.

I also got an admission from CBS.
CBS said the first deposit of $2000 must be received by the admissions office no later than October XX, 2012. The second deposit of $1000 will be due by December X, 2012.
Was the deposit used be $6000?
And was it paid by twice?

Congrats!! As far as I know the deposit of $6000 is for ED. If you applied in regular decision the amount may not be the same.

Hello Guys,

Just applied last week to CBS J-term.

Has anybody been accepted / applied / interviews?

I want to get an idea of when I will be accepted into an interview or not...

Thanks a lot

Given the fact that the J-Term stats do not come up on the first page of this thread, I was hoping all J-Term applicants would post on the J-Term thread started today (10/04)
