Very random - got an email from MIT's Center for Transportation & Logistics inviting me to apply for the following programs:
MLOG: Master of Engineering in Logistics Program in Cambridge, Massachusetts
ZLOG: Master of Engineering in Logistics Program in Zaragoza, Spain

The email tries pretty hard to sell the Master's programs - interesting that they're pushing the supply-chain degrees. :P

Got it too. And I already have a masters in systems engineering! Glad to know my file got so meticulously evaluated....

Although the whole 'no reason to fill out an app, just email XX@mit.edu' caveat tempts me.

Out of curiosity, does anyone know when the commitment date for R1 acceptees is?

I feel like it's been alluded that for R2, MIT looks at how many R1 people are going to accept...how can they tell that so soon?

I heard app volumes are down at Kellogg based on adcom. I guess this is the general trend. If yes, then it is good for R2 at MIT.
Those who have applied in R2 do updated page 1.


I thought it was interesting that adcom said that apps were up this year, and may have even dropped a stat about R1, but never explicitly said that R2 apps were up. I wanted to ask, but didn't want to be "that guy." :oops:

Anyway, I hope you are right good sir.

"Candidates will be notified of interviews by email beginning early March 2009 until the decision deadline, April 6, 2009"


...Is it early March, yet?

According to the BW forums, it is. Invites out in Boston and NYC.

Congrats on Yale, btw!

Nice! I am always a bit skeptical of the BW forums. :)

Does MIT send out invites by region?

Why would they send invites to those in their own region first? Shouldn't people with the greatest travel distance be invited early, and not vice versa?

I think that's weird too. And what about the internationals? I guess that's just the way the adcom's schedule broke down?

Maybe we can expect DC to be next, then all the Southern cities out to the West...Sloan road trip? :-D
