Congratulations to everyone who got in! I interviewed last week, but I don't think my interviewer submitted her interview feedback yet. How do you know if the interviewer has submitted feedback? Do you get an email, or does the status on your application page change?

Also wondering if I should email her. I know she's on holiday right now, so I will probably wait until after the New Year to do that.

You get an email notification when your feedback has been submitted. The email informs you that you will have a decision within 14 days. I interviewed in October and received the call 24 hours after getting that notification email. I believe my interviewer submitted my feedback ~72 hours after interviewing.

If you haven't already, email your interviewer to thank them. That may be a good reminder for them to submit their feedback. If you've already done that, I would NOT email them again. It's on the Adcom to pester them to submit their feedback, not you. Good luck!

A piece of advice: post that question to the Cornell thread instead.

Hi - just received an interview invite, much earlier than I expected. I applied on December 10, so its been less than a month.. I guess they got through a lot of applications during the holidays.

If we did not receive scholarship information in the offer letter does that mean we did not get anything?

I submitted my app a few weeks ago, and I’m curious about the time CBS will spend reviewing it. Would someone who recently received an interview invite be willing to share when you submitted your app and when you received an interview invite?

I applied right around Christmas and received an interview invite a week ago. I don't think there's a set time frame for review though, so don't make yourself crazy

Hi all

I had applied to CBS MBA program on Jan 4th. The status still says submitted. Just had one query - if the status is submitted, does that mean that the adcom has not yet seen my application or is there chance that they have viewed my application, but decided not to send an invite for interview. If they have viewed my application and decided not to invite for interview, when would they send the final decision of rejection/ waitlist. Earlier round applicants - request you to throw some light on the process followed.

PavanJain

I guess the "Submitted" status means just what it says. It doesn't mean either the adcom hasn't seen it or they have seen it but decided not to send an interview. I don't think you should assume any such thing.

HNIC

Can you tell us what your application status says since you are invited to interview?

Thanks.

Mine says «Invitation to interview» after I press open application. As far as I could tell, it went straight from submitted to ITI.

I originally applied in mid-October and just heard about a fellowship award (about half tuition) just within the last two weeks. I got a phone call and then an email afterwards.
