Let me preface this by saying I'm an applicant just like everyone else and I basically have too much time on my hands right now, since work doesn't start up again till Monday.
I'm guessing if you interviewed before thanksgiving then your app has definitely been read. I personally interviewed in early-mid October. Based on that I'm guessing we're both a 'fit' for Kellogg but maybe not the perfect fit, so I'm guessing they're either really splitting hairs with our applications, or they've already WL'ed us but not told us about it ...
Then again, I'm not a mind reader of the AdCom and I don't want to give anyone the impression that I have any insight into what they're thinking.

Hi all. Was talking to one of the Kellogg student AdCom members during break, and basically the reading process is totally random. Each reader gets assigned a certain batch of applications and they typically randomly pick which one to read (i.e. they click your link randomly from a random list). Thus, when they say the reading process is random, they mean that its completely random.
Nothing to read into. Good luck all! You're literally within a week away.

I just got my ding e-mail, no waitlist.
I did not check the Kellogg site regularly during the last 3 weeks or so, just got tired of it. So I can't say what the online status said right before the e-mail was sent.
I honestly don't think they were splitting hairs with my app, I think I was a fairly clear rejection based on my other results so far. So, I don't think I "survived" any cuts late in the game, for those who are curious about that aspect. Pure conjecture, of course.

. I had almost made it to the end of the day safely and then they sent me the 'status changed' email at 4:45 pm CST! It does suck that there is never a positive status changed email, they might as well just send the email saying you have been dinged!
