Thank goodness for this thread! My application status was 'incomplete' and I never got an email saying so. If it hadn't been for the folks in this thread saying that their status' are changing, I would have never thought to check the portal!

FYI if there is some confusion, I know in their FAQ they say that they don't need official transcripts but what they are looking for is a scan of an official transcript. If you're admitted, you will have to ask your school to mail the 'official official' transcript. I uploaded a transcript that literally said at the top "UNOFFICIAL TRANSCRIPT' so I'm not surprised that they needed me to submit the real thing.

I saw my incomplete status on Monday the 19th and my status was changed to 'Under Review' today - about 8 days.

That is weird...cuz the admission emailed me asking for transcript when my status shows incomplete and changed it to under review right after I emailed them...maybe she's just more efficient :shock:

Ahhh well for me, I just had my school snail-mail them. I don't have copies of my official transcripts so had to ask my school...and yes, I have since obtained official transcripts.

Oct 16 here. No response yet. I remember in the original email confirmation when I apply, it says that interview will start going out about 4 weeks after ddl which should start this week/next. Although I don't know how to explain the two applicants that got interviews so early.

To 2016 starters (class of 2018):
Anybody received an invitation to interview at Haas yet? Their website says invites will start going out 4 weeks after the due date, which was yesterday. Looks like invites started going out just under 4 weeks after the due date last year.

I was visiting the campus this week and chatted with an AdCom member. She said it should come out 4 weeks after deadline and there are a small amount that went out already, but should be expect invites starting this week. She also said the invites will last until the final decision deadline (December something) instead of a invite deadline like other schools.

Nice, thanks!

I am guessing the few who got them already are the mega-hunks. The no brainers.

Did she mean this week? Aka 26-30th? Or the following week?

Thanks!

The way she said it is like 'the invites will start after 4 weeks...which is about right now', so I'll assume this week or early next week? But I again I think based on the info she provided, it will be around the time to check :lol:

Same Oct 16 here, a previous post said it may take two week after your case changes to under review.
That's this Friday then. Fingers crossed.

Good luck to all!!

FROM Haas Admissions Blog: Why Berkeley-Haas? How Full-time MBA Students Made Their Decisions

Deciding where to go to business school is a highly individual choice, with students choosing based on such things as course offerings, culture, network strength, and the caliber of faculty and fellow students. We asked some of the students in the full-time Berkeley MBA program why they chose Haas:

“When I visited, I was struck by how warm and welcoming the students were. They were eager to answer my questions and to get to know me. Everyone took such obvious pride in the community here. You can find smart, capable people anywhere. Here, you find smart, capable people who are also humble. That humility, the Confidence Without Attitude, makes all the difference.” —Stacey Chin

“The Bay Area is the epicenter of the new. Every week you read about some new venture. Innovation is pervasive.” — Sandeep Pahuja

“I wanted a business school with a serious technical bent. Berkeley-Haas has that. Plus, it’s one of the 48 of graduate schools at UC Berkeley—out of 52—ranked in the top 10 for its discipline.” —Katie Benintende

“Berkeley-Haas offers so many more opportunities in brand management than other business schools. The resources here go far beyond consumer package goods, although that avenue is open if it interests you.” —Matt Richards

“There’s such a sense of big thinking in the Bay Area. People are more willing to take risks, to do things differently or better. Also, like the military, this is a place that lives by its core values, only here they’re called Defining Principles.” —Steve Weddle

“I remember sitting on a sunny bench in the courtyard with an admissions officer, still wearing my Chicago-winter boots. Student after student greeted her, and she knew everyone’s name. That’s when I knew Berkeley-Haas was for me: warm weather and warm friendships.” —Megan Bradfield

“I knew that I wanted to go to a Top 10 business school. I also knew cultural fit would be important for me. The Haas Defining Principles set the program apart and once I started talking with students, alumni, and staff I knew this was where I wanted to study.” —Crystan Allan

To find more on why our full-time MBA students choose Berkeley-Haas, what their experiences are like, and what they want to do next, see our student profiles.

It changed on October 27th. 3 days. But my girlfriend, who applied with me, got her "under review" status in two weeks earlier...

That's a pretty fast turn around time... Mine also has been under review for around 2 weeks now.

I tried not to think too much about the Under Review vs. invite time since so far for those who got the invite got it within two weeks after the status change. My status has been Under Review for almost 3 weeks now (changed in mid October), yet still nothing
