CONGRATS!!!! Guess that means all the fellowship admit calls are probably done. Congrats to all the admits so far.

Congrats to everyone getting calls today!! Out of curiosity, hs anyone heard from SC or McCombs?

I applied to 3 schools and had them ranked 2nd. I withdrew from my 3rd school and essentially withdrew from my first rank when I got my Kellogg admit.
