Got the mysterious email from adcom saying:

I was trying to reach you by telephone, but with the time difference in Australia, I don’t want to call too early. If you are up now, let me know and I can give you a call, or let me know how late it is okay to call you tomorrow.

Nothing to panic about, I am calling with good news :)

Can only assume that means good things, right?

Looking at the EA round this year (when calls also started on a Thursday) there were 13 GMAT-clubbers called on the final Friday. Calls were reported as starting before 9:00 and continuing until 3:00. At 4:55 the first reported ding/waitlists came rolling in.

Latin Americans from the wait list keep hope. On Friday we received an email from Kristine with current and admitted Latin American student contacts. In that mail she included the following:

"It is very likely that we will be admitting additional Latin Americans from the waitlist after the April 22 deposit deadline, so I will let you know about those people once that occurs.

Hope this is helpful.

TO ALL PROSPECTIVE TUCK APPLICANTS:

NEVER EVER APPLY IN THE FINAL ROUND, IT'S A COMPLETE WASTE OF YOUR APPLICATION FEE AND TIME! THE HARD WORK, TIME AND THE EFFORT YOU PUT INTO PREPARING A STRONG APPLICATION IS JUST FUTILE!

IN FACT, YOU'LL BE LUCKY IF YOU GOT IN THE 3RD ROUND. JUST LOOK AT ALL THESE WAITLISTERS HERE BOTH ON THIS FORUM AND THE ONE ON "Calling All Fall 2011 Dartmouth Tuck WAITLISTERS‎".I HOPE THEY HAD A BACKUP PLAN AND GOT ACCEPTED AT SOME OTHER MBA PROGRAM.

FOR AS SMALL AS A CLASS SIZE TUCK IS, TUCK SHOULD SERIOUSLY HAVE ONLY 2 ROUNDS, THE EARLY ACTION AND THE NOVEMBER ROUND AND TO STOP KEEPING HOPES UP OF WAITLISTERS OR HAVING THEM TO DEFER FOR A YEAR. BOTTOM LINE IS THE ADMISSIONS ARE ONLY INTERESTED IN YOUR $225 APP. FEE!!!!!

IT'S VERY SAD AND PATHETIC THE WAY THE ADMISSIONS IS RUN THERE. COMPLETELY DISORGANIZED! SOME SUPREME AUTHORITY SHOULD IMMEDIATELY STEP IN AND FIX THIS MESS, BECAUSE QUIET HONESTLY, DAWNA CLARKE AND THE REST OF THE ADMISSIONS TEAM ARE DOING A PRETTY CRAPPY, POOR JOB, AND THEY OUGHT TO BE REPLACED IMMEDIATELY. THESE PEOPLE ARE AN INSULT TO AN IVY LEAGUE SCHOOL OF THIS STATURE.


I just got accepted from the waitlist.

I think those are last year´s. My guess is that this year´s questions will be available near August.

Count me in for EA.

Yep. It's last year's. I have the last year's topic pdf, and it says "2010-2011". Not sure why it would be 2010-2011 but not gonna argue.

Count me in for EA as well. Plan to visit/interview when the scheduling thingy comes live.

Hanover can't be as bad as Ithaca. So I won't be discouraged from the rural setting !!!

Haha, I thought exactly the same, but was corrected when contacted people at Tuck.

Re: Calling All Fall 2011 Dartmouth (Tuck) Applicants [#permalink]
Hi all,

I just visited Tuck yesterday and loved the school and campus. The organized visit has been the best yet! Tuck appears to have the most responsive alumni and the school's (beautiful, but remote) location should contribute to maximum interaction between the students. Mostly good things, but I was left with a couple of questions (I hope it's ok to ask these here, as they're relevant to Tuck)

1) Does Hanover offer any variety in cuisines and cafes?
2) How far away do people find housing off-campus? While I'd like to spend a lot of my time with my classmates, I don't find grad dorms appealing.

I´ve heard the dorms are about the best that you can find at any school. From what I´ve heard also, all second years must live off campus. They say there are some really goods deals on weekend chalets around Hanover!
