Congrats to who got interview invites!
Seems like the invites has gone out to the Indian applicants...
Anyone who got an invite outside of India? I live in Korea if any other Korean applicants are reading this...


I live in Korea, and I did a Skype interview last week.

can you please share your experience...would help the people who have their interviews in days to come..

Sure,
Mine was with a second year student. Pretty standard interview with nothing too surprising. The basic questions. Why an mba, why now, why kelley, what do you bring to the community.

It was pretty conversational, expect that the interviewer was typing a lot of notes, so there were a few long pauses between questions as they typed. But, in general no surprising or out of the blue questions.

Entire interview took about 30 minutes including my questions at the end.

Thank you for sharing your info and your interview experience!
When did you submit the application? I submitted mine a few days after the deadline for R1 but they responded back by saying I would still be considered for the R1... I got the notification email on the 29th of Oct. so hopefully it is a bit early to claim a spot in dingville..

I submitted in early oct. I know that they will be sending interview invites all the way through nov; maybe early dec. And, they do small batches at a time. So, no fears yet.

Final notification isn't until late dec.

I'm Indian applicant based out of Bangalore, and I have not got an invite yet.

Considering that most Indians have already got the invites, is it likely that I have been dinged?

It is disappointing considering I was really keen on Kelley :(

I'm going to Bangalore for a F2F interview. I see that you have ISB also on your profile... how's it going on that front?

I am a bit surprised that you didn't get an invite even with a solid GMAT score.
That said, it depends on essays and your overall profile as well.

Kelley's strong standing in Bloomberg's MBA rankings for 2012 and now in 2014 is attracting a lot of applicants.

Keep up the hope and keep other options open as well.

Hello Praveen,



Don't burn yourself out. I know it does look like that but I sure hope not. I applied last year (2nd round) with a low workex and a 720 and was waitlisted. I applied this year with a 750 and a much refined profile, and I am yet to receive an interview invite. I mailed the adcom specifically and they told me not to worry for the invites will be sent till the very end. Also, that they 'often release decision in small batches over several days'.

So, even as all the Indian candidates have been sent an invite, you might receive one a bit late. I received my Olin invite a month and a week after submitting the application. So, keep up your spirit and tread on...!
