Got the call about 15 minutes ago! IN! (US applicant)
Good luck to everyone else today!
(I blanked for most of the call but I think he said that status will be updated tomorrow)


My caller introduced herself and asked me how I was feeling.

I answered " I think great, but it depends on why you are calling me. I demand an explanation"

She laughed, it was obvious that I knew why they were calling.

I am in Florida but originally from Latam. Legally a South American citizen, so I don't apply as American.

Got the call about 1.5 hours ago.
The number was a suspicious mobile from middle part of China. I guess some of the calls are made through Skype or other IP phone cards.
A piece of advise for international applicants: get all the calls, even very strange-looking ones. Not all the calls are from +1-

YEP! as a matter of fact, the lady that talked to me said they had a full they ahead of them making calls, to be patient and not expect any emails and so until tomorrow. the email will be coming, theoretically, from the person that called you.

Congrats! Surprisingly late - did you check with them if they are still calling other folks in India?

I'm in India and have nearly given up :(

Maybe they're potentially out of credit. Int'l costs are through the roof these days.

I am located in Los Angeles and got the call about 20 mins ago! Very exciting!


Although I was disappointed to hear that Booth's admit weekend conflicts with Kellogg's DAK! The two Chicago schools were my top choices and I was hoping to make the call after spending some time with the students of each school...

A lot of people split between both weekends... Go to Booth one day and Kellogg the next or vice-versa.
