Kellogg (Northwestern) 2013 - Calling All Applicants

interesting...I wonder if this is any sort of indication

Mysterious disappearances in some apps? Looks like the Dean for Admissions Stress Creation at Kellogg is kicking it into gear as the notification times near haha.

I can see mine.

Now people should start rating their expected chances as > or < 50%.
A baseline data could indicate to the correlation between disappearances and acceptances.

i can see mine as well...

I can see mine

where are you guys checking this? under the part 2 of the application page ?

I can see mine as well... although wouldnt things change in the "Check Application Status" page versus where we uploaded everything? Wait is killing me....

OF COURSE IT'S AN INDICATION!!!
It's an indication that we have nothing better to do.

I'll stick to no news is good news.

Maybe it's a good idea to spread the news of sudden disappearances on other forums such as BTG to obtain more data points

I don't think I've been able to see mine for months - about a week of being posted it changed to "submitted". Do you mean that you can actually see the uploads themselves?

Either way - pure speculation at this point. Let's not fuel the fire; the only thing that's certain is that 100% of us will know our fates by this time tomorrow!

As a round 1 accept (woo hoo!), let me clarify how first round went down. Over about an hour or so, emails went out day of (around 1am CT) for people who were dinged or wait listed. Those that were accepted received a call - hence "no news is good news." I wouldn't read into the timing of the email to dictate this round. Just refresh the forum every hour and you'll know!

At least you have clarity this round! It took us on the forums several hours to figure out that the email was correleated to a ding or wait list, meaning I fell asleep at the computer around 4am after constantly refreshing this forum to figure out what was going on - work sucked the next day because not only was I exausted but I was also on edge waiting for a call that may never come (luckily it did!). Count yourselves lucky to know what the emails mean!

Best of luck over the next 24 hours and I hope to see you in the fall! My wife and I are already looking at the KWEST trips - they are AMAZING! Just trying to add to the excitement of what you have to look forward to!

Also, I can still view my application as can people I know who have been dinged - I confirmed with them to hopefully lower the anxiety level with you all. So both people accepted and dinged can see there stuff!

I can't see my app either... Hope this is good news...

I am in India right now and the night was not the most peaceful. I checked email and gmatclub atleast twice.

I am surprised at my anxiety level because I had not expected myself doing this.
The waiting period really does get to everyone!!!

12-18 hours and things will be clear for everyone...

I heard from a R1 admit that the Adcom starts calling applicants in Asia first because of the time zones, and that they call up to 1 day in advance of the actual date the results are released.

In any case, good luck everyone! Just a couple of hours more. Try to be productive at work / sleep. =)

so, who from the US or other time zones where it'll be 1 or 2 or 3am when this mysterious email may or may not come through is planning on staying up, Christmas-as-a-kid style?
