Not on my end. People who interviewed haven’t heard back about being accepted, right?

No admits so far?

It is still by Nov 15 for those waiting for interview invites. It is still by Dec 20 for final decisions. No one has reported receiving an admit yet so it doesn’t matter WHEN people are interviewed.

As a Round 1 full-time, two-year MBA applicant to CBS, I’ve heard that admissions decisions are sometimes released within two weeks of the interview, even before the official final decision date on December 20. Do you know if this same timeline will apply this year?

Where have you heard that?

CBS started doing rounds last year for the first time and is continuing that this year. Last year, ClearAdmit shows R1 applicants receiving their admit decision around December 14.

CBS previously had rolling admissions, so that two weeks within interview timeline fits in with the rolling admissions.

chdrkr24, can you check your source?

There might be some misunderstanding. You may be right. it will be applied to rolling admission cases. Sorry for confusing.

No worries.

CBS changing their admissions process has made it more difficult to predict. The nice thing is that a later interview invite means a shorter wait for a decision on admit. (my guess)

Also, no one has reported an admit yet. Hypothetically, no spots in the class have been filled.

Is it known how they review profiles after an interview? E.g. if you are invited to an interview you passed an initial screening, what happens after the interviewer submits their notes?

ffsdfsdfsdfsdf, I found an answer from a former CBS adcom on Reddit. She’s now an admissions consultant.

Quote:

The applications are absolutely reviewed all over again. It starts from reviewing what your reviewers said about you initially, then your interview report to see whether questions were answered or whether new ones popped up. Then ALL of your material was reviewed again - essays, LORs, transcripts - everything. Hence the lively discussion. It could be 5-10+ people in a room talking about you, your fit. There is a lot of time and care that goes into your post-interview, final review.

Great, thank you for the link. I have a very, very significantly lower than average academic profile and did not anticipate receiving an interview offer - but I nailed the interview.

I was curious how the process will go from there and whether a good interview would be enough to save me from a more scrutinizing look at my GPA/test scores.

Sounds like it's a toss of the coin!

I only got an email from CBS thanking me for interviewing. “ Thank you for completing your interview with Columbia Business School.”

I got it about an hour after completing the interview
