Totally out of topic....maybe a business idea to sell to Adcom.
When you order Pizza from Domino's online, they immediately take you to a tracking meter, which shows the stage your pizza is in..Order Received -> Order processed -> In the oven -> Baking -> Packing -> Delivery...or some such thing.

Now, wouldn't it be wonderful if our applications had a meter like that? So that I know I have to worry only when my application is in the Delivery/Decision being documented and released stage?

Pardon my distraught mind...:)


I have something even better. Lets do admission GMAT style, you click submit your application, fill out a survey and bam! here's your result "accept, ding, WL".

I bet whichever school does that will be instantly popular.

Wow some of the admit/ding profiles on here are shocking. At least based on numbers.

Just goes to show that adcom is looking at a lot more than numbers.

Congrats to everyone who got the good news - I hope you guys can make it out here for DAK in February.

For billyjeans and the others who didn't make it, good luck with the rest of your apps.

Under employment history, should the first entry be your current position? I'm confused because the previous screen says current employment.

Thanks all!

Yay! Just got the call from Beth Flye. She did have scholarship info for me, so I assume they tell in that call if you've received one. Here are my stats, in case it'll help anyone else applying:

Female 27
Living in Spain, but from US
2 yrs in a large bank working abroad
3 yrs running my own business in Barcelona (a chain of hostels)
750 GMAT
3.5 GPA

Good luck to everyone, and I hope to meet some of you in February!!

You got a big scholarship - congratulations. I'm guessing it's the Jacobs one. I know because they only tell you on the call if you got one of the biggies. For everyone else, there will be a financial aid/scholarship application on the welcome page. You fill that in and find out about your aid in about a month. Almost everyone gets something.
