It's an on campus interview...and that's all it says. No idea whether its alumus / adcom, etc.

Since it's on-campus - is there any certainty that it will be a certain type of interviewer?

Could be a second-year student, could be adcom.

Does anyone know how long the Kroll background check takes? And do we receive some kind of confirmation when it's completed? It just occured to me that I haven't heard from Kroll or Berkeley and it's been over a month. Thanks

I got a message after four or five days: "Kroll has successfully completed your Berkeley MBA verification. All of us at Berkeley look forward to seeing you during Orientation in August. Thank you for your cooperation." I hope that's it! If you haven't heard anything, check back with Kroll:

What exactly does the Berkeley MBA verification consist of? Does Kroll basically verify that the transcripts you submitted are accurate or is there a more comprehensive search?

Thanks,

Kroll checks you employment history, but that's painless as long as you told the truth in your application.

After wasting a lot of time doing research on some of the other threads for Haas...it seems as though a majority of the acceptance calls come in between Wed - Thurs.

And if you won't get a call by Thursday evening (5PM-ish) - then expect to see your online status to change by Friday either to a waitlist or rejection.

I'm sure there are exceptions, but that is what I have noted from previous years.
