I applied with my best friend and we work together. Last week I got the call from Tuck when we were seating together and he got the ding the following day. Today he just got the call from Booth as we are seating together and I am now thinking maybe my ding is coming. I can't deal

Got the call at 11:23 AM! I was so excited I think I blacked out. Can't remember much of what was said after "Welcome to Booth..."

After 2 years of applications and a whole lot of rejections (from schools that should be easier to get into than Booth), I'm kind of in shock. The only explanation I can think of is that they really do look for fit.

Congratulations. I have seen your struggle with Wharton and you deserve every bit of the accolades now after getting into Booth! All the best with your MBA.

Don't lose hope - friends of mine at Booth got calls all the way up until ~5pm CST last year. Best of luck! Admitted students - congrats and feel free to PM me with questions.

if your timezone allows... I'm afraid it's a ding for people in Europe and Asia


I'm also wondering if any calls to applicants in Europe or Asia are left. Seriously starting to lose hope, based in Western Europe
