Try talking with the admissions committee. They will help in most cases.

Thanks! I see they actually have info sessions on friday so I tried to set something up before my monday interview (austin is a great weekend spot for sure), but of course it wasn't showing up on the interactive calendar :roll: I called admissions but got their v-mail telling me to send them an email, which I did. If I don't hear back I guess I'll follow up on Friday.

Good luck to everyone else wherever they may be in the process.

cheers,

I found this post on last year's forum really helpful in prepping for my interview.

calling-all-texas-mccombs-fall-2010-applicants-85165-20.html#p643841

I interviewed on campus with a 2nd year student. It was very conversational and the questions were pretty much along the lines of the ones in the post linked above.

Good luck!

i applied on 1/14...got an interview invite late January...gave the interview with an alum last week...
it really depends on the alum...they dont follow any set pattern...though they do have some specific questions that the adcom requires them to ask...
like career post MBA, team experience, leadership experience.
the alum spent a lot of time trying to understand what i do and how MBA concentration i chose will be the best fit and how i see myself growing after that. overall it was very informal and he was very easy to talk to.
now waiting to hear back on the decision.
anyone has any idea when they will send out decisions after interview.

Guys...what is the waitlist conversion scenario at McCombs....any current students at UT who can can throw light here? :?:

Nothing too insightful, but there's some info regarding the waitlist here:

https://www.accepted.com/chat/transcript ... 11_ut.aspx

Basically, it sounds like you should send in new information if it will significantly boost your profile, otherwise it will probably hurt you.

Now, the question is, will my new side project be considered significant enough to share or not? I guess I'll sit tight for now.

Would love to hear from those of you who've already received offers about your GPA, scores, experience, etc..

For those of us still waiting I'd like to get some idea of the class profile to this point.

Thanks in advance!

Does the side project bring out a quality they dont already know?
Just dont send them more of what they already know.

In Mc's link, for those of you still waiting on decisions, etc:

Quote:
Linda Abraham: Eshan and Carlos are both wondering, once they interview how long it will take for them to be notified before receiving an admissions decision. Is there a notification date or is it a certain amount of time after the interview?

Jolene Ashcraft: Neither. It’s kind of best to go off when your application is completely submitted. So once we have all of your test scores, your transcripts, essays, recommendation letters, and your complete application, from that point it’s usually about 10-12 weeks to hear a final decision. And the interview can really take place at any point during that 10-12 week period. It could come earlier, it could come in the middle, and it could come later, depending on the number of reads your application gets before being invited for an interview. There isn’t a set amount of time after the interview when you will hear a decision. So just figure that after your application is complete and submitted, it is about 10-12 weeks to hear a final decision.

Well, I'm not sure. It kind of shows leadership, which I think I lack somewhat. I just feel like I should be trying to show growth and interest in the program.

Really, though, I think I just bombed the interview more than anything. I'm not sure what I can do about that.
