Hmm....In that case you'll have to make a decision before even attending the respective admit weekends. Does Yale have a 1Y program too? Are you planning on returning to your current employer? Just curious why you decided to opt for the 1Y program.

I will probably go to DAK because I live fairly close to Yale, but maybe I'll have made a decision before then anyway.

Yale is 2Y. I applied to Kellogg's 1Y because I'm not a career-switcher (although a company switcher) and to save time/money (downside being less time to enjoy B school and graduating in a potentially rougher market in 2010).

The 1Y vs. 2Y issue will probably be the biggest factor in my decision.

Sorry to hear man. Considering you've been able to get a WL at the beast that is Columbia, you definitely have a great shot.

Building on what bostonsparky said, you were also waitlisted at MIT........MIT was responsible for GMATClubs biggest blood bath ever in Round 1!

That place is vicious. And predictable:

Post 1: "Don't want to start another fight, but how about school A vs. B?"
Post 2: "All smart people go to school A and no other school. All school B people are idiots."
Post 3: "You're an idiot for ever suggesting that A is even in the top 1000."

Hey all, I just got the admit call for the MMM program today!

I was WLed in R1.

Just a tip for all of you people still waiting -- it's somewhat a complete crapshoot. I was dinged w/o interview at Ross, HBS and Sloan.

Fortunately the odds are much better (but the cost of the ticket quite a bit more)!
