I got my admit phone call this evening along with the invitation to the competition to improve my scholarship amount.

I sent my app in on 12/19 so turnaround was 2 1/2 weeks. I had interviewed on campus the week prior to submitting my application.

Yeah, I'd been in consistent contact with the admissions staff all fall so they were ready for my app as soon I submitted it. Simon has definitely been the most communicative of all the schools I've been considering.

Hi Guys,

I have been going on and off this forum for quite sometime now. I wont say i was a regular but i did check out the forum for inputs at times. :)

I had applied for Fall 2011 and after quite a few rejects, have got an admit in simon with schol$$$$ :D ( not a huge one.. but then even a penny counts,in this case dollars)

Anyway i am an international applicant, is there any other international applicant who has got an admit?

I want to discuss the opportunities and other things. Probably we can share info and get to know scenario better. Let me know.

All the best to all other applicants.

That's interesting you've both been outstanding that long. Are you both international applicants? Whenever I spoke with the admissions office they always emphasized their rolling admissions process. Have you tried following up directly or received notification of being placed on the waitlist?

Just got my interview invite. Question to all - what is the flexibility with scheduling? In the e-mail they said I needed to schedule it on-campus next week. Next week I am in an unavoidable meeting (yearly global meeting for the dept). Anyone have any experience with this?
