Is there a pattern in terms of when final decisions come out post-interview (ex., acceptance calls are usually soon after, dings are closer to the 2 week time frame)? My interview feedback was submitted on 10/13 and I haven't heard anything yet...

How do you know when your feedback was submitted? I have not received an alert

I received an automated email titled "Columbia Business School: Interview Feedback has been received". I think the interviewer has two days to submit it post-interview.

Hmm ok. I interviewed last week and have not received that notification

Strange...check you spam filter, and if you don't see anything you should consider emailing your interviewer or admissions

For those who got an interview invite - were you given the option to select your interviewer? I was just assigned one by default. Wonder if that's the case with everybody.

Wow 760 and dinged? no interview? I applied on 9/28 but haven't heard anything...
I'm sure you'll get into other top programs. I just got dinged from Duke so I know how it feels.

Wish you the best.

Got the acceptance call last night! I'm so pumped to be heading to CBS next year.

Applied - 08/26
Interview invite - 09/26
Interview - 10/03
Acceptance call - 10/08

Wait you got accepted on a Saturday? Weird. Didn't know they made Saturday calls.

Same. Applied on 10/5 and I've heard nothing. Better than rejection I suppose, although I don't know if I could say a loss is worse than a win after that Seahawks Cardinals game.

What are people's thoughts on those who have not yet received an invite? Are there more going out or are we going to be in the waitlist/reject pile?

I think it's so hard to speculate. Over on clearadmit you can see people that got invites at about the 4 week mark and thought the interview went great and then got a ding. Process is such a black box.

I see a pattern that most of the accepted candidates got a call within 4 working days, after their interview feedback was submitted. Does anybody see a pattern with rejected candidates (who interviewed) too - do they roll out rejects early or make them wait for the complete 2 weeks for their final result.

Anyone else waiting on final decision post interview? This wait is killing me. I interviewed on Friday and see they just admitted a person who interviewed on Wednesday.
