Seems like Berkeley and MIT are the selective ones after Stanford....

Has anyone received one of the "rolling" admits for R2 yet?

Hi, I know I am out of place to post anything here but I wanted to know where are HAAS EW MBA cataloging their progress in this club. I have gone thru the entire 57 pages and could find only 6 posts from EW ppl, I am aiming for EW starting fall 2012 and think this deserves a separate thread just to establish differences between the app requirements between the FT and EW and reduce confusion!

If you go by percentage of applicants admitted Haas is number 2, just behind Stanford and ahead of HBS I believe.

I received the following message via email today. Upon further inspection it states "ready for review" so maybe it is not yet under review...

"Thank you for submitting your application for admission to the Berkeley MBA Program at the Haas School of Business. Your file is now ready for review by the admissions committee.

While we currently have sufficient documentation to review your application, please note that if you are invited to interview, you will be required to immediately submit official academic records issued by the school."

Earlier it used to say --

Today it says --

How does it look for other applicants waiting for R2 interview?

I still have the old status message.

Mine changed too. Sounds like a ding to me.

Mine changed some time yesterday too. I only noticed because I keep the page up all day at work and home and refresh sporadically, just in case that interview invite email didn't make it through for whatever reason

R3, mine's been under review for a while, but I don't expect an interview (at all or) until late March.

Do not give up all hope! I am a round 2 applicant and just received an invite today.

Oh great news! Congrats and thanks for sharing, brings up the hope indeed!

Do you mind sharing your profile? Just for information...

Sorry for the delay!

I had my interview yesterday and I think it went well, although my interviewer was a little hard hard to read. Fingers crossed!

My "Status Description" just changed to: Your application for admission to the Berkeley Full-time MBA program is under review by the Admissions Committee. Please visit the web site again and log in with your user name and password on or after the decision date for the round in which you applied to check your application status.

No interview invite received yet. Does it look like a ding? Is it the same for anyone else too?

I have the same status message. Hard to infer a positive sign in this development.

Hmm... Waitlist is one possibility. I wonder what is the case for others. So much silence as if either all have got invites or have given up hopes. This process is much more difficult that I had imagined.
