OK! I'm definitely going to Kellogg now!

Well MBA, its good to know I will have at least one friendly face at school next fall...and a dogsitter haha.

I'm interested in talking to some of you about what attracted you to Kellogg, and what your histories are like. I took my GMAT today, was dissapointed in my score, but would like to get some more color around what a successful Northwestern applicant looks like. Please PM me if you are willing to chat.

Thanks,

MBTC.

MBTC, there are usually chats during the weekend. Sundays are the normal day but with the superbowl that probably wont happen. Usually there are 2 or 3 of us Kellogg admits on there. Probably the easiest place to catch us for a chat. Stop by in the evenings and look for posts on chats.

Adcom waived my interview today (I hope they did it before reading my app)...

The email starts 'Due to these circumstances...' What circumstances?? Guess it's just the app volume...They assured me this will not effect my app and said I do not need to do anything.

I have a decent profile, but did not do a great Kellogg app, so was not too bullish on a K admit...however, disappointed that I don't get to practice interview skills before W and GSB

Also, I live in Richmond, VA...2hrs away from DC...Can't believe they cannot find a alumni around here for me

I interviewed at Kellogg on Monday (the 28th). Extremely friendly Adcom and straightforward questions (though they did ask me for two weaknesses both overall and as a leader).

Kind of odd that waived an interview in the US- thought that this is usually the problem internationally.

ujjib- you might want to reach out to them and schedule an on campus interview maybe?

Been a lurker here for a little bit...my app just went complete at Kellogg. Interviewed back in October, ended up submitting my app for round 2. Good luck to all.

that's some roster!

About the same number of applicants in R2 as R1 now. We had 9 admits in R1, so hopefully R2 has as much success. Last year R2 actually did much better than R1, so that may bode well for you guys.

Dosa, just found out that another richmond friend got a Kellog interview waiver this morning...so, guess it's just the location..

Well, atleast my app is ready for review right now (while adcom may be waiting for interviews and interview results on some other applications)..if i do not get a phone interview request in the next 2 weeks, then i know it's a ding..

ujjib

They only load up alums with a set number of interviews. There probably arent as many alums in DC as you think. They also may not think to have you interview 2 hours away. I live an hour north of boston and I interviewed where I live, its a small city and probably only has one alum.
