Congratulations ! can you please tell us when you hit submit on your application ?
I applied through the consortium round 2 on January 4th and on January 13th I received an email from the admissions team stating they received my application and provided instructions for checking my application portal, etc. I believe I first noticed the "Schedule Interview" on my application page around 3 days ago (on January 16th). Hope that helps.
Not to burst anyone's bubble, but everyone in the Consortium receives an invite because Johnson has a Super Day. Regular applicants shouldn't view those invites as indicative of anything.
Don't worry, no bubbles burst
and to clarify, not everyone in the Consortium receives an invite to interview just because there is a Super Day. Yes, a Super Day does in fact exist, however, the selection process by the committee undergoes the same level of rigor as with any other application and as a result, some are invited, but many aren't. What I believe you are referring to is Johnson Means Business (JMB), their diversity conference that was held back in October 2016 (I did not attend).
All applicants that attended JMB are invited to interview, regardless of Consortium status. With that said, I imagine that by this point almost, if not all Consortium applications have been reviewed due to the Super Day timing constraint (February 10th). I recall seeing some interview invites that rolled out last week on clear admit and I imagine they will continue on a rolling basis. Also, for what it's worth, the interview scheduling calendar seems much more open than at other schools I am interviewing with (Darden, Tepper, McDonough) so I would take that a positive sign for those still waiting for an invite. Hope that helps.
