Just got an email from Tuck saying the following... Hopefully its good news...god why would they send this email today when the decision wont be available till 11th...

Thank you for applying to the Tuck School of Business. Admission decisions will be available at 5:00PM EST on Friday, March 11, 2011. On that date, you will see a link to view your online decision letter when you log on to your application account.

Holy crap I nearly **** a brick when I saw this email...

My guess is that everyone got this since it says decisions will be available Friday, and not your singular decision.

Does this mean no phone calls for acceptances... or phone calls starting very soon?

Beats me but I got the email too. smh @ this process. I really hope that I don't have to repeat it.

i also got the email from tuck just now saying that the results will be posted this friday the 11th. do you think that means that we will log in to see a rejection letter? i thought tuck was going to call all accepted candidates.

did everyone get this email? to the other people who received it, did you interview with tuck? self-initiated or admin initiated?

as for me, i just got this email and i had an interview that was initiated by tuck admissions, and it was with an alumni of the school. though i thought it went terribly.

thoughts anyone????!!!

Hey I had a self-initiated interview and thought it went very well...Lets hope for good news

Time for wild, anxiety-driven speculation? Maybe phone calls will start tomorrow or Thursday??

They did do calls for R1, right?

Calls will still go out for admitted candidates this week though right? And the rest of us can access our rejects/WL from the web page?

Got the email too....let the calls begin..

I think Tuck wants to give more time to students who are at a stage when they are considering about options and deposit deadlines...

I too got the email. I was relaxing thinking I have another week to start sitting on edge of my seat for decision. This email brought me to edge of my seat early. Hoping for some good encouraging admit news.

I would think that Tuck would still call (starting tomorrow??) I think they have sent this email in past years, even though they end up calling.

Man I can't believe it. This week we're finding out. I'm definitely ready to start planning my life though, so this is great. Good luck everybody!

I guess Tuck's admission was bored as I was from reading Tuck board and decided to give us more drama.

Tasteful.

They send this type of email out a week or so before the deadline so that everyone is primed. Good luck all

Awesome, thanks for bringing my blood pressure back down to normal-anxiously awaiting news levels.

All,

It sounds like the email said decisions will be available March 11th. Is that the case? If so, then they are releasing decisions earlier than their anticipated deadline.

It seems as if some folks are expecting a decision next friday and others are expecting a decision this friday. Will someone please specify the date this email said that decisions will be available on?
