I thought the school and everyone I met seemed extremely nice, intelligent and welcoming, but in the end I just didn't think it was a great fit. Best of luck to everyone applying and hopefully I just made someone on the waitlist very happy! That still leaves 3 schools! Where you leaning? Or have you withdrawn from other places?

Posted from my mobile device  This question was asked at a Tuck information session and the adcom member said that sometimes re-applicants may not have to interview but if you are applying for the first time you will be either invited to interview or can initiate one.

PV and Achtmeyer are newer and hence a little nicer. Newer dorms have kitchen on every floor and sleep number beds. Whittemore has a shared kitchen downstairs and regular beds. Whit is closer to the building where the classrooms are. That's about it for the differences. Unless, something changed in the school policy you can't really choose which dorm you want to be in - it's a lottery-based assignment and not everyone gets the dorm room in the first place.

Hi, if I haven't received interview invite before Jan 31 for the Jan around, does that mean that I was rejected?

For some reason I got an email this morning confirming Tuck received my official GMAT scores. I sent them back in November...odd.

Well, now it's only 12 days left  Don't forget about the "heart attack email" you'll get this Friday from Tuck just "reminding" you that decision notifcations will be available in a week. As if you haven't had Feb 8 circled on your calendar for months. Best of luck to everyone! Thanks for the reminder, this information is indeed VERY important!

Have any January round international applicants received Tuck-initiated invites yet?

Eagerly waiting for results now. Tuck has been my topmost choice ever since I started researching. Hopefully some light at the end of tunnel after this long wait. Best to all fellow R1 applicants

Did most other applicants receive a response to the "Thank You" email/letter sent to your interviewer after the interview?
I often tend to read way too far into these little things which likely hold very little meaning but was just curious.
