Have you visited campus or participated in a chat with students previously? These schools want to interview candidates that are both serious about attending and those who will mesh with the existing community -- Goizueta is a smaller program and they are very tight-knit as a result. If you haven't done so, you should definitely engage in a chat and develop a stronger understanding of the school. If you have, I would still recommend interacting with them as you'll probably learn something new (e.g. impact 360 case examples). Asking informed questions to the students and any adcom members present is a good way for you to help establish YOUR brand as well as learn about that of the program.

When I applied to goizueta in r2 I hadn't visited the program. Just after submitting my app, I saw they were having an event to meet current students and alumni in my city. I signed up because there are few better ways to learn about a student body than firsthand interaction, short of visiting campus. They contacted me with an interview invitation shortly after registering for this event, noting that they would be visiting DC and it could be a convenient time to interview. Who knows if I would have received an invitation had I not signed up?

I think r3 is more competitive than R1 and R2 in general, but given how few means there are to control your destiny at this point in time, I would highly recommend making the most of them.

And I got the same invitation and signed up for the final session regarding admissions. It's an automatic distro for students interested in the program Hope to see you there, and best of luck to all who've applied.

That would be great. Let's connect to discuss these situations.

So the Round 4 application deadline is Mar 8. But the notification is rolling for one year MBA. What does this mean?
Does this mean you can apply after Mar 8 but it will be on a consideration basis? Or you will only be notified when they decide on your application, submitted by Mar 8?

Did any international received interview invite??

I'm R3 international, did not get interview or rejection yet.
But from the look of it, I think mine's a ding now

From the decision tracker, I see that out of 17 R3 international applicants, 2 got invited to interview. So, I guess there are still a lot of applicants who are waiting to hear back from Emory. Good luck and stay positive.

Yes , but with just a week away from decision date, the nervousness has started to creep in.

Does anyone know if they call/admit applicants before the announcement date or does it all traditional come on the date posted?

I’m a R3 international applicant and I received my interview invite last Friday. When I tried to make reservations for my interview, I saw the last available time slot is on March 8.

I just got a call from admissions -- Rd2 has been decided and they're starting to call admits.

Do you mean Round 3? The Round 2 decision date was in January.

ah yes good call -- these are round 3 decisions... I got mixed up as a few other programs call round 1 "early action" and subsequent numbering is affected. in any case they're beginning their calls for tomorrow's deadline -- best of luck to all applicants and congrats to all admits.

I just got a call, I got admitted

Are you aware if they are calling all applicants today or if it's split over the today/tomorrow?

I would assume that they will be reaching out to admitted students via phone today and tomorrow, and via portal updates tomorrow for anyone they don't have time to contact.

That said I'm obviously not part of the adcom -- that's just a guess.

Just got my admissions call.

Just got a call from my interviewer. In as well!
