we are looking for a candidate who is unique, motivated, and more. During the application, you should be able to highlight your experience, academic performance, and more. We want someone who understands our program and is a good fit. - Eddie Asbie, Associate Director of Admissions and Financial Aid at Cornell. We look at your application holistically. While a weak undergraduate record can be a concern, we do look at your work experience and standardized scores as well. In the end, your application will be reviewed along with all other applications in the round. The stronger your application is overall the better. - Kim Szpiro, Assistant Director of Admissions and Financial Aid at Cornell. I chose Cornell for a few reasons. Firstly, I knew that a large part of the MBA experience was learning from your classmates and so to get the richest experience I'd want the most diverse class. I felt that Cornell offered the most diverse class between my choices. Secondly, I enjoy outdoor activities and Ithaca offers a great variety of fun activities to keep me active outside of the classroom. Lastly, from a personal point. My wife could not relocate with me to Ithaca and so we'll have to travel back and forth from each other's locations. She'll remain in the NYC area and so frequent trips back and forth from Ithaca were much easier than my other option (Tepper) - David, Current first year at Cornell Download full Cornell chat transcript here.. calling-all-johnson-cornell-applicants-2016-intake-class-of-200239-20.html#p1572119

Thanks! I should expect the response in around 3 weeks then

Hi Guys, I applied in R2, but my application status still says 'Under Review'. I know that a lot of R2 folks have got interview invites and have even been interviewed. Anybody else has the same situation as me? At least I'd like to get a 'denied' mail!

Even I applied in R2. Portal still says "Under Review". Many from R2 and some from R3 have already got Interview invites. Looks like it's game over Just wondering if they've made a decision without looking at my TOC Essay Video(Youtube shows no views)

Got the interview invite via email too. R3 applicant, 2yr program, App submitted: 15 mins after deadline.

Round 3 applicant here and my status is still 'under review'. Guess that means I didn't get an invite?

R2, still "under review". It has been ~3 months after submitting apps.

Yes, initially the Application status changed to " Schedule Interview" today morning ~10AM IST. I got the mail around 6PM.

Is anyone unable to login to their account? Login and "forgotten password" both say - this account does not exist. Already called Admissions to let them know, but wanted to check if anyone else was facing this issue?
