Any news?

Was your status update communicated by email or did you have to log in to see the change?

sz4 · Answer

You'll get an email saying that there's been a new update, but you'll have to log in to see the actual update.

Cabal · Answer

Has anybody heard anything directly from admissions? One guy on the main thread says they emailed him requesting an additional call. Thoughts as to what it means?

calverdos · Answer

Positive. I got a phone call last week but it went more like standard procedure, though they did want to hear your stories in your own words.

Anyone have the stats last year on the rate of deferred to enrollment?

sz4 · Answer

Thanks for the update, calverdos. Were you able to get any feedback from the adcom during that phone call -- such as how you can strengthen your case? Or do they simply want to see what R2 looks like and it's just a waiting game for us? I wasn't able to find stats, but here's an old ED deferred thread: calling-all-cbs-deferred-ed-applicants-107795.html Hope that's helpful.

Cabal · Answer

Crickets? Anybody hear anything?

calverdos · Answer

Any one heard anything yet? From last year's post, they shall start calling ppl (though maybe only a handful) anytime from now on

Cabal · Answer

Nada. And at least on gmat club, the group is wayyy smaller than in years prior. Not sure how to take that. Good luck!
