It says on the portal "If you cannot schedule an open interview, you may be invited to interview following the Early Action deadline. Invitations are not guaranteed and can be sent up to the decision release date."

correct ! the people who applied to EA only know. the rest is just noise and outdated playbook.

What does this mean ?

I was at Darden over the weekend, and EA applicants who are yet to get a response ask similar question.

You’d be fine .

But don’t depend on the veteran status alone. Your academics, clarity of post-MBA goals, fit with their case method style, and ability to articulate your narrative will matter just as much, if not more.
