Hi all! Does anybody have an idea how interview invite from Tuck should be treated? It is quite straightforward for other schools – welcome to the 2nd round, but for Tuck with their self-initiated interviews… Do they just try level the playground for candidates who potentially have chances to be admitted (based on some formal criteria such as GMAT/GPA), or does it means that they are really interested in you?

If you elect not to schedule an on-campus interview, and they invite you, then it's a good sign. If you elect not to interview and aren't invited, you're not going to be admitted.

I think those admitted receive calls, if not its an email and application status update on their app portal.
Just over a week, can't wait to find out!
This one will be a surprise either way, those of us who did applicant initiated interviews are totally in the dark.
And evidently they send out an email one week before the official release date/time to 'remind us' (like we've forgotten!) that the decision is coming the following week. Nonetheless, don't freak out if/when you receive an email on Friday.

Can someone please tell me if the application status on the online application system will change after the interview ? Mine still says "Submitted". Thanks.

Based on this exact conversation a year ago on last years forum, for the last couple years, calls have started at about 3 PM EST Thursday and continued through 3-4 PM EST decision day. They try to make the anticipation as stressful as possible.

Just got the "heart attack" email, but I was able to remain calm and carry on thanks to the heads up!
