So if December 15 is the initial notification date, what is the final decision date? When I applied I was under the impression that December 15 was the decision date. I guess it's my own fault for not looking into it, but I assumed it was the same way the other schools handle it and to be honest I find it kind of frustrating. I applied to several schools with January enrollment deadlines, and if I get into one or more of those but still don't know whether I'm in at Johnson, then I feel like I wasted my time and money applying. I wish they could just tell us when we'll know for sure if we're admitted or not! (And my application status does say "Schedule Interview," so I assume I've been invited, but I find it annoying that we have to wait so long to get it done when all the other schools are moving much faster).
I completely understand your frustrations and I experienced some interview scheduling issues last year as well. However now that I'm at the school I can attest that the admissions office is currently understaffed. They have been looking to fill a few empty positions in the office for a few months now and with applications still ongoing it's been difficult for them to organize and coordinate. I would suggest that if you guys are still extremely concerned (especially for those that want to interview on campus and have to book tickets) that you go ahead and call the office and ask for a more accurate update.
Once again, this time last year, we didn't get interview notifications until November 5th. You guys are getting your invites much more in advance. There's still time and I'm sure the office is trying as hard as they can to send out a large number of acceptances by mid-December as I'm sure many of you will be fortunate enough to have to decide between multiple acceptances


and I hope to see you all around Sage
