Waitlist. :|

I live to fight another day.

Where is Mr Bostonsparky? I will continue to linger here until I move to the other thread.

I really wonder what went wrong to have resulted in a wait list. I thought I had the best application for Kellogg. Never Mind. :)

I'm still here. I think I will hold off a couple days to call the Adcom to re-affirm my interest, as I figure today/tomorrow they'll be pretty swamped with WL callers, and won't be as rushed later in the week. I said this already on the Wharton board but the Harvard and Stanford R2 decision release dates are still to come and those will have a BIG effect on the Kellogg waitlist.

Haha...I changed the profile picture as promised. I will keep changing every few days.

Did you apply for SEEK program? I am calling the adcom today to find out what are the concerns of adcoms if any.

But I have another D Day coming up on 02 Apr for Stanford. :)

If by 'apply' for the program you mean plan on pursuing the major if admitted, most definitely. The wealth/depth of courses offered in the area is hard to beat - a big reason why I applied to Kellogg. Thankfully Duke has a lot too so either way I don't think I'll be lacking in social enterprise-related stuff come this fall.

Good luck with Stanford!

Congrats ashaker! Hope you can get the financing sorted out. It seems like Kellogg has decent options for int'l students without cosigners so hopefully that works for you.

Appukutty, good luck in getting the admit call off the waitlist.

I guess I'm lucky #13 for this year's entering Kellogg class from GMATClub.

By the way everyone, Class of 2010 > Class of 2011. :lol:

Just spoke with my WL officer this morning. I actually found the convo to be pretty useful, she gave me a specific issue she wanted more information about, so I'll go ahead and do that before they start WL movement.

Now that appukutty is off to sunny Palo Alto is there anyone else here who plans on pursuing (no matter how fruitlessly) the Kellogg WL aside from myself and GoBruins?

Really, she gave you actual information? that's soo much more useful than mine!

I'll be pursuing the WL for the JD/MBA program.

My WL officer also gave me a specific issue that she wanted to know more info about. Is it better for them to want to know more about an issue or to not have anything to address at all? I've heard that WL candidates fall into two different buckets - those who need to address specific issues and those who don't- and I'm just wondering if the AdCom differentiates between the two.

Haha, I forgot you were 1Y when I first read that and was thinking "...but isn't he class of 2011 like the rest of us applicants?"

Have fun with your 1Y pride. I'll be thinking about what class you're sitting in this July while I'm relaxing on the beach. :-D

I'm also pursuing the WL... Problem is my WL officer is apparently travelling until the end of next week and so I haven't been able to get her on the phone. I was told by the admissions office that only my WL officer would be able to address specifics about my application so I guess I'll have to wait until she gets back to find out which bucket I fall into...

+1 here.

I am in bucket #1, meaning they didn't want specific information from me. All they want is a single update letter covering a couple generic topics. Bucket #2 is for people who have specific issues/areas to address.

Not sure which one is better to be in. I was also told to tell them if I was admitted elsewhere and whether they need to make a decision by a certain date. My WL officer told me that we'll see movement in the R2 WL in early May.
