Just Finding this thread and great to see the commiunity. I also did not receive an invite for the CA, although I had a call from a member of the MBA Recruting team earlier and without asking he emphasized that you may or may not recieve an invite for the CA prior to the decision date. I guess it is sth to do with their process . This was in early Nov by the way. Fingers crossed

You mean to imply CA isn't necessary for admit? If you could clarify

Portal was updated to show that GMAT official scores were received (I sent it 2-3 months ago). A good sign?

Starting tomorrow! They are rolling decisions so will continue till the end of this admissions cycle

I just got a mail from Rice. I did video essay but didn’t update the video viewing rights. Seems like they are looking into it now.. P.s. my CA was done way back. What does this mean?

what doe your status on the portal say?

Could be some glitch. Were you interviewed ? If yes, then it must be some internal portal issue. So, you had your interview. It will be sorted out. Meanwhile you can write an email to the admission team directly.
