I have been waitlisted. :( Anyone know anything about the conversion of the waitlist for EA?

Were you waitlisted with or without an interview? My waitlist letter says that they need to assess my candidacy further through an interview even though I already had an interview.

Same for me. I guess that means we were not up to the mark in the interview? Looks more like a ding than a waitlist to me.

Waitlisted with an interview, but ya they want me to interview again. I would like to think that this isn't a ding.

I was awarded a Forte Fellowship. I got the notification on the status page/offer letter.

howdytex2 , what does the Forte Fellowship cover? And did you mention somewhere in your application that you'd be interested in this fellowship?

It is a scholarship for women in business. Includes some nice perks like Fuqua pays for me to go to a pre-MBA conference, plus some exclusive networking events. Here is some more information https://www.fortefoundation.org/site/PageServer?pagename=mba_fellows

I did not mention it in my app. However, I did mention I would want to be involved in their women in business club and I also was a part of the Forté MBA Launch Program last year, which most likely helped. Most of my extracurriculars were geared toward the topic as well.

I am aware of the Fellowship. I want it for myself too. But from what I understand, the scholarship amount that goes with this fellowship differs from school to school. That is what I was asking about.

I got a decent merit scholarship too. I wonder if there is a way to apply for the other scholarships such as forte on top of the merit.

Is there a Facebook group to connect with others admitted in Early Action? Or should we just start one?

Congratulations to all those who got EA admits!

I got waitlisted without an interview in Early Action. In my decision page, the adcom said that they couldn't take a decision without an interview.
I'm guessing this means that they will interview me along with R1 applicants.

Anyone else in the same boat?

I think everyone who got waitlisted after interview has received the same letter.

Me too! I don't know when they will send out the next interview invite. I hope they send it out ASAP.
