For months of work experience, are we supposed to write current months of work experience or months of work experience upon matriculation next year? Most schools have wanted work experience upon matriculation, but the Darden application doesn't specify?

Thanks, niraja.

One more question. I am obviously sneaking mine in at the last minute, too! I uploaded a resume, and I now want to upload a different one (found a typo). I can't figure out how to delete/overwrite the first one! Did any of you run into this problem?

Thanks!

never mind, I got it! I just had to retitle the resume. It wasn't overwriting the resume with the same filename, but I gave it a new name and it overwrote!

Just submitted R1 with about 14 hours to spare. Ha.

Really excited about Darden, although I must say their actual application system was brutal. A lot of bugs, glitches, etc. I was ready to submit last night but couldn't even access the system! Oh well, it's done now.

Best of luck to everyone!

That's interesting - I emailed the Admissions office Monday and they said @ time of application haha. I suppose they'll be able to figure it out regardless of what you put...

Submitted everything last week 10/22 and both my recommendations came in last night/this morning. Looks like the waiting game begins now. Looking at last years thread it looks like interview decisions come out sometime late November/Early December correct? If I get an interview (big if!) thinking about doing an alumni interview to cut on some costs which are getting astronomical but I've yet to visit Darden and feel as though I really should although I'm pretty set that that its 1st/2nd on my list (Kellogg and Darden flip constantly).

Darden requires on site interview for US based applicants
Candidates living in the U.S. must interview on the Darden Grounds with a member of the Admissions staff or Student Admissions Committee. Candidates living abroad are welcome to interview on the Darden Grounds, but are not expected to do so. International interviews are conducted by alumni or Admissions Committee members traveling overseas.

Haha, I'm an idiot. I knew that too, I guess I'm getting all the schools confused.

submitted for R1 too.

Compared to other schools Darden certainly takes its time doesnt it.. R1 decisions come out on Jan 28 a good 3 months after submission. most other schools seem to be able to get it done in two.
