Had my interview on campus yesterday with adcom. It was pretty straightforrward and very structured.

Why MBA
Why Marshall
Tell me about current job
Why's you leave job X, job y, etc.
What do you do for fun

It lasted 30 minutes.

I asked when the decisions will be released. Adcom said that they have a new system in place and the decisions will be released between 3/28 and mid-April. They are not sure if an email will be sent, so just keep checking the system. Very strange.... :?

It is pretty strange, I submitted R2, and haven't heard a word either.

I remember seeing the deadline for reporting acceptance was march 29th. I have received acceptance from another mba program with scholarship money and I have to give notice by mid april.

anyone else hear?

USC decisions will be released in time to make your decision. Start checking the online system this Friday. You can probably call the office this Friday as well, as perhaps adcom will have a better idea on how decisions will be released.

Which programs are you deciding on?

I couldn't help but laugh after I read the result: waitlisted

Dinged at usc. Oh well. I wasn't looking forward to dropping $49k a year in tuition.

I got in at pepperdine with some good scholarship money.

Thats weird. Just got an interview invite. I'm withdrawing my app though since I've already picked my school. Hopefully that helps out one of you guys. Good luck!

I still haven't gotten my decision. Same thing happened to me when I applied two years ago, and at the end of the summer I found out I had been waitlisted. Wish I had known.

I called the office today and was told to keep checking online through tomorrow, and if I don't get a decision then I should call back on Thursday.

Did anyone in RD1 receive a call when they were admitted? I was admitted in RD2 and I have not heard one peep from the adcom.

Just got a voicemail this afternoon. I'm in off the Round 2 Waitlist!

Not my top choice, but at least I got my first admit of the season. :)
