It changed from invite for interview to the one below:
Application Status: Application Under Review

Status Description
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.
Show more

It usually changes when Berkeley receives feedback from your interviewer. But this is not confirm, nor is it indicative of when you will be hearing from them

No problem, I think we can all empathize with you as we've been through it. But I have learned that reacting to everything that adcomm does will only take a couple days of your life. There's not point stressing on that. Read a comic and let yourself be distracted :)

I just finished my R3 interview today. Is Haas admission rolling-base? When does the adcom start its roll-call? It seems that the calls for R2 applicants started almost two weeks before the final decision day.

R2 admits went out early because they wanted to give R2 admits the opportunity to attend Days at Haas with the R1 admits. R1 admits went out a day or two prior to the official date. So there's no telling what they will do with R3 and R4.

Good luck everyone! Hopefully the next 10 days brings good news to us all. From the forum activity, it only looks like about 5 of us interviewed so far?

Also, did those who interview write thank you letters and receive a response? My interviewer did not, but maybe to take a distance from the candidate??

By the way...I interviewed over a week ago and my status still reads:

"Application Status: Invited to Interview

Status Description
The Admissions Committee has completed a preliminary review of your application for admission and would like to invite you to interview........"

I know some people's status has changed. Anyone else who interviewed still have the same status as mine?

My status changed on friday after they received my official tanscripts.
Application Status: Application Under Review
I had my interview 03/22 off-campus with an alumna and it was completely focused on leadership and behavior ... plus the regular why Haas, why now, contribution to the school and the network in my country, involvement... no principles though (which was what I prepared for the most) :?
Good luck to all R3 applicants!!

Did anyone have an on-campus interview with a current student and feel good about it? Honestly surprised there isn't more activity in this forum.

I had my interview on the 25th of March. Status has not changed to anything else since then. As emont and kelea have been telling us, don't read much into such minor things. I don't think your admission stands on whether you sent a thank you email or not!

R3 EWMBA applicant who applied on 3/14 and had an interview on 3/21. Does anybody know when the EWMBA program decided to add a final round? I don't remember seeing the final round option available earlier in the year.

Has anybody heard back from adcom regarding their application status?

Good Luck to everybody!

EWMBA R3 applicant, just got invited for interview on campus. They gave me only 3 dates next week, i have requested them for any date the week after as i had a vacation planned.

Kind of bittersweet emotion. SO far for me it was a shot in the dark. Im tensed- can you guys pm me any threads that you found useful in preparing for the interview?
I know i had read one thread by rhyme rhyme-s-totally-fallible-guide-to-interviewing-55030.html

The link you posted basically sums it up. There is a podcast on the EWMBA website that gives a pretty good breakdown of what to expect and how to prepare for the EWMBA interview.

My interview was very by the book with my interviewer asking me to walk her through my resume and then we transitioned into talking about why MBA, why HAAS etc.

The one question that threw me off was when she asked me about my leadership style, I am not sure why but it took me awhile to come around to a succinct answer on that one.

Good Luck,

In the admission blog, they had indicated that they were planning to extend the deadline...and looks like recently (within the last week) they have added a fourth round.

I am R3 applicant who interviewed last week.
