Hey everyone I am trying to start a thread for 2011 applicants to discuss the admissions process and ask questions. I learned a little bit from reading the last years discussion and was hoping other applicants are interested in discussing the application process this year. Good luck!

Just had a 30 min. Google Talk interview (I live abroad) with Andrew Sama. He was very kind, and the interview was straight-forward.

1. Why Notre Dame?
2. Why an MBA?
3. What's the best team you've ever been a part of (professionally)?
4. What's the worst team you've ever been a part of?

Off the record:
5. A personal question about the political events in the country where I am working.

Good Luck today to everyone in Round 3!

Still waiting. I wish they'd just say we'll call you between X date and Y date then I wouldn't have to be stressed and unproductive on judgement day. Good luck all.

I applied in R2 and was interviewed by Brian...
I was WLed on the R2 decision date...
AdComm told me after the next round results they will review all WL candidates...
So looks like nect week, I can hear something back...
Anyone else on R2 WL??

I am basically an international applicant but visiting US for a couple of weeks...
Should I email the adcomm to see if they want to meet up??
Will it make any sense at this point in time?

I would definitely try to meet up with them. Fill your time there talking to adcomm's, students, faculty, anybody you have the slightest reason to talk to. Although they need to be real reasons, so it doesn't feel like you're wasting time. It will 1) keep you fresh in their minds, and 2) let them know you're serious about the school. Unless you do anything really stupid, like insult someone, it cannot hurt your chances.

For those of us still waiting, 2010 applicants were doing the same thing we are--wondering where the phone call/email is. Calls and emails continued to roll in at 2pm all the way to 5pm. There didn't seem to be a correlation with results either. Good luck!

Lets keep the flag flying high...
But as per the email I got few weeks back, it said: WL decision will be AFTER R3 decision.

well I applied Early Decision and got waitlisted. Recieved "still on the waitlist" email on Dec 22, which was a few days after next round apps recieved their news. I'd love to hear today, got my first admit of the year and now I want to get everything figured out. Good luck to all

Just think of those poor guys back in the day waiting on snail mail, could be worse

I'm in! Just got a call from Andrew Sama, it was brief, and he followed up with the standard acceptance email that leads to the flash video.

I'm thrilled, and happy the wait is over. Good luck to everyone.
