If you didn't self-initiate your interview withint the time allowed, then you might receive a request to interview. Other than that, I think you can expect silence until the decision deadline (or a day or two before that if you're admitted). I wouldn't expect to hear anything for the time being as the adcom office, presumably, is closed for the holidays. Good luck and happy holidays. The waiting is the hardest part.

I am a November round applicant and was invited to interview. Did the early action round applicants hear back before the decision date if they were accepted?

You really should read through this board and read posts from previous years. Tuck releases all of their decisions online at 5pm EST on the published release date for each round. If, and only if, you're accepted, you can expect (based on their past practice of doing so) to receive a phone call from the ADCOM informing you that you've been admitted. That call may occur up to a day or two before the published deadline, or on the published deadline, but not before then. That means you won't hear one way or another until the first week of February, 2011. Congratulations on the interview invite. Good luck with admissions.

I wasn't able to initiate interview with Tuck on time. I submitted my application in November so I was wondering if you will be invited to interview when would it be???

I believe I submitted my app right around the deadline, I was invited to interview on 12/8, and I am located in Ohio.

Good Luck

Hi

I'm a little confused. I heard that, as of last month, Tuck requires admitted students to get their own cosigner for any loans they might take (similar to Columbia). I checked their website and it isn't completely clear to me. Can someone clarify?

This is def. an example of placing the apple cart before the horse, but does anyone know what Tuck's computer requirement entails? Do all enrolled students have to purchase a Lenovo laptop? When I visited campus, those were the only computers I noticed. I believe Tuck used to allow students to purchase Apple notebooks, but I think the school may have changed their policy a few years ago.

Up unitl October, they were offering no-cosigner loan to international students but they stopped it and now intl students would have to look for their own co-signers or get loan from their home country.

Yes, I believe they are issued and all the same.

They offer you a choice of around 3 different laptops and provide you with tech support. I think most choose lenovo as they are familiar with it and reliable.

Well, I can share some more...Tuck's dean made Congress put additional restrictions on H1-B visa. He said it when asked about recruitment for international students at Tuck while we were touring campus and ran into him. Yes, I heard it with my own ears!

How can Tuck's dean make Congress do anything? There is a strain of anti-immigration/xenophobia running through the U.S. right now. Post 9/11, it became more difficult to get a U.S. visa. I wouldn't be surprised at all if Congress has made it harder for internationals to get H1-B visas with unemployment as high as it is here in the States. Personally, I think the U.S. is shooting itself in the foot with these policies, but immigration is a contentious political topic these days.

As much as Tuck wants to make its program more international and attract quality international students, I can't imagine the school's dean would do anything to make it more difficult for applicants/students/graduates to get a visa.

it seems weird for me too, they surely should want to attract and keep qualified individuals, who may be among the best in their respective fields.

About no co-signer loans: Tuck's new policy is pretty much a game changer for me.

Do you think this unique to Tuck or the start of a trend amongst b-schools?
