Another day of waiting.... last year Friday was much quieter than earlier in the week and only dings. I guess we'll see if the pattern holds.

So riddle me this...I'm a US male applicant. My wife and I both interviewed on 9/27 and we have not heard anything yet and there has been no status change on line. I guess I'm a little encouraged that we haven't been dinged yet but does that mean that we're probably looking at waitlist?

Not to sound super-needy and all that, but have any of the admits had interviews after 11/15 or so? I won't panic (too much) (yet) if not.

I was right now about to write about that one. I think so far I have read two November interviews - Nov 8 and Nov 11. But all the other admits seemed to be in October. I interviewed on Nov 19, so I am not sure if I should start panicking or start giving up hope yet?

I interviewed on 11/11 and received the call yesterday, for what it's worth

I think thats the most ideal scenario...getting interview in the last few days and getting admit on the very first day, least waiting time

I received now the email telling me to check the status on the application site.

Thank you Kellogg for the consideration and perfect timing.

I think its pretty unprofessional to have people find out by checking their online status without an email. Also, it complicates my life because now I have to check (1) my cell phone for calls (2) my emails (3) my online status (4) this thread. Exhausting! I interviewed October 21st (and then had an email mid-November asking a question about my transcript for some reason), but have not yet heard anything.

this mismatch in the timings of email and status update has made it worse........as if it was not enough for them to make us check our emails every 5 mins, now I have to check the application status as well

I agree - an email notification should come before the status change but maybe there was some delay. i think that's good news if they asked about your transcript, not so? At least, that's what I've read on past forums.

For what it's worth - I interviewed via telephone on December 6th and got the call yesterday evening. I had expected to wait a bit before I heard anything at all but that didn't appear to be the case.

Well, I don't know if its good news or no news, really. Essentially, the University I went to has several undergraduate colleges named after certain people and my transcript only said the name of the college and not the university, so they were checking for consistency with my application. Probably just a standard procedure thing.
