I thought they should release batch after batch before 11th... but so far still haven't got anything... looks like we have to wait until the end of the day...

Hello guys! I'm new to GMAT club and need an opinion I'm a Fulbrighter (UK) so IIE applied to Boston University on my behalf. They put my app in for round 2 and I haven't received an invite to interview - and it's obviously the notification date! I haven't received a rejection either. Does anyone know if they ever give people offers without interviews or am I just fooling myself? I saw on the site that they interview 60% of applicants and I don't see why they would have rejected me straight out (I have GMAT 710, 5 years work experience, v good academics etc.) Any feedback would be great - I'm going stir crazy!!! Thanks

it's not the last minute yet. It's just 6am Boston time... stay tuned.

Has anyone heard anything yet?!

I called yesterday and they said that they will send an email saying that the status of the application has changed. She said that this could happen over the weekend too. Can anyone else call to see if there are any updates?
