A friend of mine called admissions and asked if he could still expect R3 invitations and the answer was " We are not optimistic on that possibility " - One of you could try for a confirmation too !

That sums it up then..I dont think we are getting any invites. Surprising that no gmatclubber managed to get one..

Considering they sent out emails about how people do get admitted in round 3 yada, yada, yada, I was hoping they'd be a wee bit more communicative... fail...

Still no one has heard from Stanford. 6% of applicants are successful in total - I wonder what that percentage is in round 3? Any takers?

Nope, I check my e mail compulsively (more so than normal!) but nothing yet.
I believe tomorrow is the so called 'last day' interview invites could be sent out. I read somewhere on Stanford's website that they invite a week after the application deadline and a week before the decision deadline.

I wouldn't be surprised if the acceptance rate for R3 was 3% =s.

I actually motivated myself to apply after that email. I was otherwise planning to apply for R1 of next year.

Now I'll have a tough time explaining the 'what has changed' part if I apply for R1 next year..

I'm in the Northeast and got the call around 4PM. And no i just started freaking out because I didn't even realize he was calling today! I thought it was a telemarketer lol so I might have even sounded a little rude at first.

Among those waiting to hear from GSB, did anyone notice a change in their application page? List of recommenders gone?

I see the last decision letter gone with the list of recommenders still there.. bad sign based on previous decision day analysis :(

Hey there. Could you please clarify a little? What do you mean by class of 2018?? Did you apply in R3 or were you waitlisted from previous rounds?
