Your getting into Kellogg does. Don't judge the others on this one.

Not that this is helpful exactly, but mine has said "your application is being printed and prepared for review" since the day after I submitted my application.

Also, anecdotally, there was a previous post where someone reported going "under review" and receiving an invite 9 days thereafter.

Not sure if this has been answered before, why do some people get to go to Super Saturday, while others go through the more traditional method with the alumni interviews?

i'd like to know this as well. is super saturday for people who live outside the area? i live within 10 miles of the school and i didn't get an invite to super saturday

I have a feeling that applications are sorted by demographics. For me...I am an engineer with 6 yrs exp and an Indian!....So I may be in a big pile of application set.....My app has been "under review" for three weeks now! Its driving me nuts

I just realized that it's only 10:15am! I've already refreshed my email and this thread about a zillion times. This waiting is painful.

So I have emailed 4 out of the potential 9 ambassadors and only 1 has responded and they didn't have time to interview me. The Columbia interview invite page says I need to schedule it within 2 weeks.

Does anyone know if that means the interview needs to be done within 2 weeks or scheduled/decided upon within 2 weeks?

I'm getting a little nervous about this.

I would go ahead and e-mail the other 5 ambassadors and see if they respond. Sometimes, the e-mails and contact information in their database is out of date.
