While we're all waiting, does anyone know anything about how CBS views couples who apply together? (are they considered a package or do they not care at all?)

Kind of regretting not applying ED but the risk of one of us getting rejected and having to split up for 2 years for school wasn't something we were willing to take :(

Someone else did this ED. One got in, the other didn't, but not sure if it was CBS or some other school.

Congratz girl!

Urgh, I had the interview on the same day, but my feedback was submitted on the 5th - wondering if that's a bad sign...

Congrats to all who have been admitted and good luck to those who are waiting - you will hear the good news soon. Wanted to check if there is a GMAT Club thread, facebook page or any other online community of admitted students? I see 34 admits on the first page.

The same thing happened to me last year with my 710 GMAT and I was ultimately rejected in late January. I don't think many of the deferred applicants got in (without material improvements to their apps), but there's always a chance. Good luck with your retake, it could help a lot.

Also, you'll be assigned a deferral manager and in a few days that person may try to schedule a call with you to discuss your app and the deferral process.

Appreciate the honesty. That's what I noticed from reading prior year threads about deferrals. Well, I will take my chances. We shall see how persuasive I can be.

Congrats. Mine got submitted on 11/10. I may hear back anytime starting tomorrow then. They seem to be quite inconsistent with the time it takes from interview report submission date to decision render date.
