Congrats to everyone who got invites to interview! Still waiting for mine. Even though I know majority of the invites are yet to go out, it's still nerve wracking. Waiting, waiting....

Yeah it is not easy to wait...am in the same boat...

Anyone hearing anything today? Awful quiet around here...

I got an invitation to interview this morning around 11am EST. I'm on the West Coast. Once you get the invite to interview, you have 10 days to schedule an interview if you want to continue with the application process. As of this morning, when I logged onto the portal, the last day open for interview was December 2.

As far as I know, Tuck has a more traditional way of interviewing students - behavioral type (tell me a time...), talk about resume. Darden, if it hasn't changed, does its interview more like a complete story-telling, beginning with interviewer's statement of "tell me about yourself". Surely, the interviewer will jump in when he/she has a question or wants clarification on something, but it's really a story that you're weaving together.

Got my invite today at 4pm! Very excited!!

Got an invite. International. Timestamp was 6:01pm local time, 4.01pm et.

Hey Guys, I just signed up for the open house that is on Thursday. I did not sign up for the diversity event, but just the traditional open house. The event starts at 7:30 and I was planning on leaving from Dulles area at around 5AM to make it. Does this seem insane? Should I just get a hotel closer to Charlottesville? Also has anyone gone to the open houses in the past? Trying to understand what to expect. Thanks!
