I don't think there's a correlation. Last year this blogger got the admit call a week after her interview:

I would think so. Doesn't law school admissions also have to review your app? This is in contrast to MMM, where the engineering school doesn't review the app and admissions is decided upon by Kellogg.


It says that they do on the website, but since no LSAT score is required, I wonder how much say the law school office has over the application, especially since Kellogg is relatively more highly ranked and regarded than Northwestern Law is. The alum who I interviewed with said that he thought that basically Kellogg decides and they tell the law school that the 20 or so people who are admitted to the program each year are going to be enrolled at the law school as well. I'm not sure how accurate that is.


Oh cool, they matched you up with a JD/MBA alum? NW law is no slouch, ranked #9 by US News.

Viper: Good morning, gentlemen, the temperature is 110 degrees.
Wolfman: Holy ****, it's Viper!
Goose: Viper's up here, great... oh ****...
Maverick: Great, he's probably saying, "Holy ****, it's Maverick and Goose."
Goose: Yeah, I'm sure he's saying that.

Add a little levity to the air on a beautiful Chicago morning. The temperature outside is a crispy 19 degrees.

Good luck everyone!

Activity has started. some one on Bweek forum posted message getting mail requesting for official score report.
River and Steel, any insights- what is the idea behind changing the status check message? is there some thing to read into or just generic change?

Learning from last year, typically when Kellogg changes your status to ask for official things (transcripts, score reports, etc.), that is a good sign (i.e. admit).

Hurray for final exam of the quarter today.

Steel, River, or Soni:

Any idea how big the MMM applicant pool is? Not that it matters now but is it more competitive or less?? I know their entering class status are pretty much simular to rest of the school. MIT breaks out the number of LFM applicants per year but can't find details for MMM applications.

appreciate any insights.

I heard from an Adcom member that the acceptance rate for MMM is very close to the regular MBA program. Does anybody know of any MMM admits this year so far? Also, was there any trend seen last year as to when the MMM admits started rolling out?

Someone reporting status change to "unknown" on BW board... looks like they're releasing at least a few today

Well the good thing about all the excitement yesterday is that I think went through all the range of emotions (on the bad end) that are possible, and ended up at "nothing's changed, but I surivived an early cut."

Has anyone had any other updates?

The guy on BW's status changed sometime between 8am-2pm EST. Perhaps Kellogg does an update each morning?

It's odd that more dings don't go out at the same time.

Don't forget how small of a sample size BW + GmatClub is.

With an expected application volume at K this year over 6000 - there are probably 2000-2500 apps in R1. I would bet the amount of people viewing the two forums combined, for Kellogg related results, and posting their results is less than 100. Saying they accept 450 people in R1 (considering yield, and acceptance ratio, this is probably not toooo far out of whack) and reject around 1600-2000 people, they could be rejecting a huge amount of people each day, and we would never know about it.... Even if they are rejecting 200-300 people each day, maybe one of those people browses the forums, and who is to say whether they will even post their ding in any given day.
