Stanford Interview Invite! [#permalink] New post   20 Nov 2006, 17:37
Just came in a few minutes ago. I'm so excited that I'm feeling delirious. Especially since this took so long to come in after my Wharton invite...

Good luck to the rest of you.

Background:
27 year old, 3 years as Engineer/Project Manager in Silicon Valley company, 3 years family business, Solid international experience, leadership experience at local and international non-profits.

The numbers: GMAT: 770, GPA: 3.95 (Bachelors in Industrial Engineering/Masters in Computer Science).

With those stats, are you sure it's just an invite and not and invitation for the Dean's position?

I'm Indian and proud of my heritage. However, I feel very much like a world citizen. I'm aware of the PagalGuy forums. Thanks for the heads up.

Good luck to you as well.

Stanford means a lot to me since I'm currently enrolled in the Stanford Advanced Project Management Program and because my fiance works in the Bay Area. If I did get into Stanford, I wouldn't even have to move from my apartment!

Wow, very good stats. I only have a 710 and 3.65 GPA with 6 years of tech consulting/software engineer as my background. I wonder how my background will be seen at stanford. Should I take another stab at the GMAT to make it better? I only took it once.

Congratulations! [#permalink] New post   22 Nov 2006, 12:26
Congrats on the invite. I hope you cross the final hurdle as well. Can you please share some details regarding your application.

1. When did you submit your application?
2. How long ago did it go to 'under review' status?

I have submitted my application as well and its been on the 'review' status for about 2 weeks now. I am not quite sure if this is common or is there a reason for me to panic?
