Nada! Will be getting a ding tomorrow if dont get an invite today. As simple as that :-D

Ironically this was my best application, much better than Kellogg's. Matriculating at Kellogg then.
Out of curiosity, I had a question. You mentioned in a prior post that Jan. 29th would be the final day for invites or dings. However, if I go back to last year's thread and the Booth blog post, they sent invites over 8 business days: Jan 26-30 + Feb 2-4.

Is this year different, to your knowledge?


Yes, as per the confirmation email that you would have received from Booth when you submitted your application, it clearly mentioned that for R2, interview invites will be sent by Jan 29th. It might have been different for last year.

Not that simple!! :) At least not according to my friend, a current Booth student. He says there is hope for tomorrow as well and that everyone goes through this. This gave me fuel to control my emotions till tomorrow. :|

Btw, for today, is there any hope to get an invite? I mean its almost mid of the day at CT.


haha :-D :-D I like your enthusiasm. I hope invites are sent out tomorrow as well. Rolling interviews can not be predicted. As you said, hang in there!

Has anyone who has scheduled an off-campus interview received any information about their interview details yet?

OMG, i just got my invite. I had already called the school bugging them with all kinds of questions on how soon i could apply for part-time since i was convinced it was the end of the road for me.
To those still wondering, they told me they will keep sending invites till tomorrow COB. So hold on tight, it's not over yet.

Hey guys, for those with invite, when u select off-campus, do they just email you the name of alum and you figure out the date with the alum?
What if you select on-campus, does it give you a choice of a date? Also any ideas on benefits of on campus vs off campus?

I'm not sure how the on-campus interviews work but yes they emailed me the name and email of my interviewer and said to contact them within 2 days to set up the interview.

Congrats to all that have received an invitation!

Haven't heard of anything from them so I assume no luck for me... submitted my application quite early on Dec 19 after travling all the way to campus from Asia, pulled all my efforts...I tried...and farewell my dream school

There are a bunch of additional documents that may be uploaded after submission of the application such as:

Additional funding source
International Financial documentation
International resources document
Passport
Proof of personal funds


HAS ANYBODY UPLOADED THESE DOCUMENTS?????????????????

WHAT WEIGHTAGE DO THESE DOCUMENTS HAVE ON THE ADMISSIONS PROCESS / INTERVIEW INVITE

You do not need to upload any documents unless asked.
"If we have not requested that you submit documents to us, you may disregard this." This is what the statement says.

I can! When you click submit for the on-campus option, you will be directed to another page with a calendar. Green days signify availability for interviews. Click on a day and you will see possible interview times. You have to confirm the time and date to cement your interview submission.

Though I will say that if you click "on-campus," it didn't appear there was a way to go back to the initial selection screen between on-campus and off-campus. Though I'm sure if you changed your mind, you can email the Admissions Office!
