If I remember correctly, the school doesn't disclose your grades but you may be asked your grades by the recruiter or some students do share their grades with prospective employers


This is similar to what I heard. It's officially non-disclosure but probably not enforced as much as other schools. I was told most recruiters can't ask but McKinsey and Goldman do..and can...because they are McKinsey and Goldman. I'm not sure if that applies at other non-disclosure schools as well with these companies.
From what I remember, Darden does not have an official GND policy (I may be wrong here) .... And recruiters actually do ask about the grades/gpa/GMAT scores, especially the top ones.

As far as other schools are concerned, I remember about 2 schools - Wharton has a student run GND which is strictly enforced and Booth has an official GND, which again is enforced in totality! While one cannot rule out the fact that some students, especially those who are in the top 1%/5% bracket, may divulge their feats, it is more of an exception than the rule, as far as I know.

Best of luck for tomorrow everyone :)

I just realised that each of my five schools has a different colour code to it :) Talk about rainbows!!!!

But that is going to change tomorrow in all probability! Hope that Darden follows the Booth way rather than Wharton or HBS .........

Just to let you all know, in rd1, I got the call 1 day before 'official' decisions date and only got the full scholarship news on the package that arrived in my house a few days later.

Wish you all the good luck for the upcoming results!

Just a couple of queries:

- Will Darden call up everyone on the 27th? Or can we still expect an admit without the call?

- Do they give the scholarship decisions directly on the phone like Booth? Or do they only do so via mail? Also, are all scholarships given out during the call itself, especially the bigger (full/half waiver) ones? Or do they give these out only after the whole class has been finalised, by about May-June?

Thanks in advance!

This is what I was getting at in my post a couple posts up. I don't know if EVERYONE actually receives a call, but on GMATClub, everyone who was admitted R1 looks like they received a call the day before dday. Consulting2Finance also has a good guess that all decisions will come out online at midnight. R1ers also said that all scholarship decisions would be in formal writing in the actual acceptance letter, which will come via snail mail within the week after the decision. Scholarship announcements are not made on the phone.


Exactly - scholarships info is sent later on in your admittance package.
Admitted students are supposed to get a call today (27th). I know how stressful it is to be taped to your phone...

IB and consulting will ask about grades, the others won't.

Good luck to all R2 applicants! Hang in there!

shweta, I think you're needlessly freaking yourself out too early! :)

Remember Darden is on EST, so calls should be going out TODAY and final decisions probably at midnight tonight. If the official dday is 3/28, then today (3/27) would be admit call day.

Europeans and internationals first? Before it gets too late in the night for them, and then shift to the east coast and work their way west?
