Congrats on the invite. I have not yet received an invite, but I hope I do. Also, as mentioned, the interview in general questions and regarding what you have done & would like to achieve.

Thank you for the reply. ATB to you as well, I hope you get the invite soon.

Hi ankushtulipz,

They generally have complete application package with them so they can refer it anytime. Make sure you know each n every thing correctly.
Overall tone is casual, and mostly they will tell you how the interview will proceed - as in what type of questions, resume walk through etc.

Please be clear with your short term goals (if any one particularly). Otherwise, you can mention 2-3 with priority.

As there is career services guy present in interview, your major task is convince them that your goals are achievable with MBA.

All the best for the interview. You can PM me or ping here in case of any specific doubts. I haven't received result yet so don't know if I made any mistakes or not but will try to help as much as possible.

I am planning to apply for R2. As an Indian male applicant who has studied in India , is it mandatory for me to submit TOEFL score? Other indian candidates let me know.Thanks.

Found this is faq

" Who is required to take the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL)?

Applicants who are not citizens or permanent residents of the United States, and are from a country where English is not the sole official language of instuction, and have not successfully completed a year of college/university level study in the United States or another country where English is the sole official language must submit a valid TOEFL score.

Countries where English is the sole official language include Australia, Bahamas, Barbados, Canada (except Quebec), England, Ghana, Ireland, Jamaica, Kenya, New Zealand, Nigeria, Scotland, St. Vincent and the Grenadines, Singapore, Trinidad, Tobago, Uganda, and Wales.

Scores are valid for two years."

I have degree from US that help me waive TOEFL.

Any other international applicant here who might have already looked into this?

I have applied in the R1 and havent received any notification for interview! My reco and scores was sent by 15th November. Does it mean that I got dinged?

I dont think you can say that you are dinged unless the deadline notification for that round is up.

I suggest, drop an email to the adcoms asking whether they got all the materials in time for your application to be considered for the Round 1.

That should help.

Thanks for the advice.... will drop a mail.

Please use Kudos if the response helped.

Hi,

I had applied before Oct 15. The status of the application is - to department for review.

Is this normal to see this status for this long?

Also do we need to apply separately for financial aid or is it automatically considered in the application?

Thanks.

Any news interview call for R2 applicants?
