regarding R2, I submitted my Part I back in November, first week, still haven't heard anything about an off-campus interview yet. Maybe that's a ding without even reading my essays? :P


I got mine today and the one thing i hated about the communication was that it did not indicate the gender of the alum. I wrote an email opening with Dear Mr. xxx. that carries a 33% chance of me screwing up considering 33% grads are women. Will find soon enough.

So, today was the only day I somehow managed to forget about my cell phone. I left it in the pocket of my coat. At 4:55 it occurs to me that I haven't seen it for the entire day. At 4:56 I see a missed call from an 847 number. I get excited but then calm myself down because I know that a call should come from the "unknown" number. Nevertheless, I still listen to the voice-mail and guess what I hear???

" I am very excited to let you know that you were admitted to the 2-year program."
I start jumping up and down while my coworkers stare at me like “what is wrong on with you?”.

I AM ADMITTED TO KELLOGG!!! HOLY SH*T!!!

The call came in at 3:15 EST.


Great !!!!!!!!!


Congrats Neighbor ---------------------------------------

Awesome news Nervous, talk about great Xmas present. I kind of figured that when your status changed on there that you were going to get in. I got an email from someone who emailed me from BW right after I got in asking what my status said because theirs had changed the same way yours had. I didn't want to jinx you though by saying that.

One more gmatclubber gets admitted and we will out number the kids who might be heading just south of Kellogg in the fall. I think you should forget about all your R2 application, relax and join us at Kellogg. Save the grand on R2 applications.

Are you planning on coming to admit weekend in Feb? We should try to plan a GMATclub get together.

Thanks, river!
Is the admit weekend in February? I will definitely go. Apparently, there is also an admit event in New York at the end of January. I will be going there as well!

the student rep who called me said she thought DAK was Feb 15-17. However, it hasn't been published yet.

It is Feb 15-17th. Its in the package they email to you. I haven't heard how you reserve your spot. Someone asked the question on their admitted student board, which is not very active yet so something tells me a lot of people haven't gotten their packages yet.

Nervous, I just saw your profile on AskAccepted and saw Paul's response. I laughed out loud. I know why Paul responded the way he did, but I guess this just goes to prove we should always apply to our top choices, however low we think the odds are.

I think your odds are decent to good that one or more of the schools you listed will admit you, though I think your odds at Kellogg are lowest because of the weak extracurriculars (and would probably advise against applying there).

Email or mail?

My mail package was just a leather padfolio with a few letters and forms. I must have missed the DAK notification. It still says stay tuned on the website but I was hoping to book soon since flights are only $279 from SFO.
