Calling Fall 2010 Chicago Booth Applicants

Yes, I got the email as well.

omg guys! same e-mail here

Well, as I see it the situation is this:
Dear WL,
There is no more room to admit people, but in case someone decides not to show up you'll have a chance in... September???

I am trying to be the most objective that I can, and if any already admitted candidate declined his or her admission and went to another school, then there would be room for some of us. As nobody has received an admit call, the thing seems to be over.

Also, what is that thing of a 2nd deposit? At other schools you make only one deposit and that's it. The following payment is your monthly tuition bill that comes when you are already studying.

We have a "bye bye" deadline for tomorrow. As an international it is really a hard situation for me.

Got the same email. Also an international on a work visa. told them I would need at least 2-3 weeks prior to the semester starting to get a student visa so thats my final date.

anyone know someone who got in yesterday/today?

I wish they would tell us how many people are on the WL. At least that would give us some indication of our chances.

same email.

am also international student.

I go to island to check to open mid-low-end resort. enough waiting...

Been on the Waitlist since December. I've sent in 2 additional recommendations, 3 letters with career progression and demonstrating interest and a letter from a current part time student that basically said I influenced his decision to join Booth. Still on the waitlist. Of course I'm not saying that any of the additional information should have certainly put me over the top (maybe adcom felt they didn't fill out what was missing). Chicago remains my top choice for an education and if I have half a chance of getting in I am going to take it.

how can u get 780 in gmat. jesus
anyway good luck!

ericschock,

If this past admissions season has taught me anything, it's that the GMAT score can only do so much for your application.

got a waitlist update too... i've had to make certain commitments at work, so i'm withdrawing my application for this year. will definitely reapply.
Good luck to all!

I told the admissions office that I would like to stay on the waitlist. They emailed me back and said they would consider this information in "upcoming meetings." I asked when the meetings were and they told me I should receive a decision in 2-3 weeks...

i got an email saying that they will make sure to update my application file.

Do you guys think Rose will discuss the waitlist during tomorrow's information session sponsored by Kaplan or do you think it will just be a general overview?
