Yay congrats to all!
Remember, if you get a status update - it's an invite... until Feb 4TH (both dings and invites will get status update emails on that date)

I assume it will take a few minutes to update just like the status did. Are people opting for on campus, hub city super saturdays, or off camps alumni interviews?

edit: just updated

I hope so! I can't decide between off campus and on campus....I did Chicago Live in the fall and don't see a need in going back again, but am also scared of doing an alum interview in my city because I think they are kind of unpredictable...Any thoughts?? If I do on-campus, I'm leaning towards Super Saturday.

I did Chicago Live as well so don't see the need to go on campus again. Will likely opt for one of the off campus super saturdays as I live in a hub city. I'd probably do off campus alumni if I were in your shoes.

Interview form is available now. I'm scheduled for New York on 2/21.

And, for what it's worth, I decided against a presentation and wrote an essay instead.

Interview invite! Anyone have advice on interviewing in New York vs. interviewing on campus, especially if you haven't visited campus yet?

This says it's first-in-first-out for interviews. So those who loved the anxiety of racing against the clock will also love the anxiety of waiting until the last day.

Yes, the article's a bit outdated (it still includes the admissions fellows, which isn't done anymore), but I would be willing to bet that their philosophy hasn't really changed.

Wish this was true but a lot of people who submitted hours before the deadline received invites as well! Weirdly enough though, it seems like most (?) people who got invites wrote essays. Perhaps they were quicker to review than presentations? Haha who knows. It's all conjecture at this point.

I would advise on campus for sure, if you haven't visited. I visited one of the schools that was high on the list in the fall, and was actually convinced not to even apply. I guess you could also to wait to visit during an admitted students weekend, if accepted...but I would do on campus now. Just my two cents! Congrats btw!

Where did you hear the Feb 2 date? According to the Booth Insider post below, the last day for invites is Feb 4.

It's sounds like people who submitted right before the deadline already got invites. I submitted the night before. If it's really a FIFO process, then definitely a ding here...

Don't lose hope! I submitted the night before also, and just got my invite today, when others who submitted hours before the deadline had already received invites!
