Has anyone who's scheduled an interview received the confirmation email from Darden? I scheduled mine on 10/30, but have still yet to receive confirmation. Also, anyone headed for interview on 11/18?

Cheers!
I will be there on the 18th

Awesome. Did you receive the confirmation email as well? For some reason mine never came through.

Hey Guys,

one quick question.

Do we have to send official GMAT scores to Darden to complete application? can we just write the scores in the application and later send the official scores if admitted?

Thanks.

I'd strongly advise that you send in advance.

I scheduled my interview for November 14. The confirmation email I received tells me that it's a completely blind interview. Will the interviewer have a copy of my resume in front of them during the interview, even if they haven't seen it before?

Past interviews have always centered on my resume. It would be very difficult to have to answer your standard interview questions and give a detailed job history at the same time.

I seem to remember Darden explicitly states somewhere on either their website or buried in the application that they only require official scores after you have been accepted, with the understanding that if you misrepresent your scores they will be able to rescind their offer.

Thanks.

"For applicants whose last name begins with the letters A-K, your account manager is Ms. Pat Deane (deanep@darden.virginia.edu) and for applicants whose last name begins with the letters L-Z, your account manager is Ms. Maggie Thompson (thompsonm@darden.virginia.edu)."

I think your best bet would be to contact your account manager at Darden for the info you require.

Do mention their reply here for the rest of us.

Quotation from the Darden "Application Requirements" webpage.

Quote:
We do not require official test scores in order to process your application and get it to the committee for review. You may self-report the scores directly into your online application. If offered admission, you will need to send official documents. However, offers of admission are not binding until official scores are received. If discrepancies are found between self-reported and official scores, the offer of admission will be withdrawn.

I didn't see anything in my confirmation about it being a blind interview . . . where does yours say that?

Ok. So this wasn't asked in the application, but I'm sure interview folks will be preparing for this question.

Why Darden? Can some of you guys share?

Your interviewer will not have read or reviewed your application or resume. It is our policy to conduct blind interviews, so there is no need to send or bring in your resume for the interview.
