Are all the dings coming from all regions? Or just the West Coast? Have NYC region dings been released?

Ding Dong!

Best wishes to those who received interview invite.

For the rest of us, I am glad things are finally over. Now the only thing to do is to wait.

There are people on BW from NYC reporting dings.

Have any deferred applicants heard anything (+/-) or are we all in the same boat?

I work at a foundation, where unfortunately I have to notify unsuccessful grant applicants. Here's how I'd guess it works: databases can be updated in large batches. Like it might take some time depending on processor speed, but the admissions staff could reject/inform everybody at once. However, human error is a serious concern with this volume of data, so they spread it out over a few hours - possibly a whole day - to build in checks. The names may be in some rough regional order, but there's no reason to stick to that.

I applied this round and I'm expecting my rejection any moment now, followed by a nice consolation date tonight. :-)

Got the dreaded e-mail with a free ticket to dinga-dinga-land this morning. What a way to start the day.

However, I don't know what to feel right now?

Disappointed, cause one of my fav. schools just rejected me, Or,
Happy that the wait is over.

While I figure it out here's something for all those who join me in DD-land!

To a woman so heartless
How could you be so heartless?
How could you be so heartless?

The wait is killing me........ applied in Round 1 already, deferred decion to Round 2, haven't heard from them since. At this point I just want a ding or an invite, whatever (ok, prefer invite!) but seriously, submitting in October and already into March... it's insane

Good luck to all who are still on track!

For R1 deferred to R2,
Is it me or it seems like none of us received a ding today? If the answer is yes I just assume that:
1) They did not include us in the R2 ding mailing list and the bad news will comne soon...
or
2)They forgot about us LOL....did anyone received communication from Sloan after accepting to be deferred?
or
3) We all will get an invite...(don't dream this one is just for fun!)
or
4) Option I forgot for which I would appreciate the help of someone to tell me what's going on!

Soory for the dings, GL for the lucky ones!

Yeah, I did. It said nothing interesting.

Pretty sure we're all still in the holding pattern.

Well I guess we are all in the same boat...I received too the email confirming the deferred decision so go for my option 1 as well!

So let's keep hopes alive, we never know until the end (or a ding email)!

By the way any French people among the R2 ding day survivors?

Anyone brave enough to ask ADCOM if RD1 deferred candidates are going to receive dings on another ding day? Were you guys all deferred on the RD1 ding day?
