What is the difference between 'Not Invited' and 'Wait listed'. Does the former imply you have zero chance of being interviewed and are basically awaiting a formal rejection? Does the latter only apply to post-interview status or pre-interview status as well? If so, wouldn't it be the same as being 'Not Invited'?

This is a weird system, hence all the questions!

I like making friends! PM me if interested
There will be plenty of activities during BDW, you should worry about not having stuff to do.



Im getting there on Thursday morning the day before BDW, just wanted to see if anyone is in the same situation and wants to meet up for a meal/drink on Thursday!

Do you guys know if Fuqua scholarships are merit-based or need-based? Perhaps both?


Scholarships are all merit based


I see that you have made your decision. Congrats! :)

Applicants can only officially get waitlisted on the decision date, whether or not they are invited to interview.

Try posting this on the FB group wall. You'll probably get more responses over there.

Hi inspired12 or any other people who are coming early to BDW, feel free to go to some of the campus events that day, or see if you can sit in on a class. It will get you a feel for Fuqua student life.

To see a list of all the events going on at Fuqua: https://fuqua.campusgroups.com/calendar

On Thursday (April 12th), it looks like Nissan is doing a talk about how they recovered from the Tsunami, sounds very interesting.

Anyone received their admit packs? There is a message in FB that some have already received. So i'm pondering whether some of those who live outside NC have received either

For those WLers who are interested, the decision will be rendered with the R3 applicants (4th of May).

Ok, now let me rephrase it: is there anyone who hasn't yet received their packs? Surely, except for me

I am 3rd round applicant and will have my interview on Apr 17.

Can I go to BDW? Do you guys think it will help with the admission?

I live in the area.

How do you login to the incoming student website?

Also, where is the schedule for BDW and recommended dress?

Not sure why I can't find this stuff.

Downfall of applying R3, you cannot go to BDW. Good luck with your interview.

Right, I found that but the only times it has are a 1:30 start on Friday, mingle at 2pm, a 9am start on Saturday and a ending time of 2 on Sunday. I am wondering if specific times for the various events will be available beforehand.

How do you log into the new students site, I can't figure it out for whatever reason. Anyone know the dress code for BDW.

I applied for HSM certificate program in R2, and got waitlisted.
I saw from last year's thread that if I get in off the waitlist too late so that I can't participate in the courses in July (specific for HSM), I can take those course before the second year. Wouldn't that then overlap with the internship??
