First of all, congrats to everyone who received admits already. I'm a long time lurker unfortunately, and a R1 applicant. I'm still waiting to hear from Kellogg, but my girlfriend received a ding last week. We clearly indicated we were applying together, so I find it odd AdCom wouldn't have the courtesy to notify us at the same time.

I remember seeing someone else on the board whose wife got a call before he did, is disregarding coupled applications the Kellogg MO?

I'm a little behind on the boards so I apologize if anyone has already replied to this. My understanding is that Kellogg makes everyone effort to inform couples at the same time. My wife got the call that Friday morning directly from Beth b/c she received a big scholarship (my wife is diesel). She asked Beth about my decision and Beth said that she would check in on it personally. I got the call from an AdCom member later that day.

Remember, AdCom is going through a ton of applications. I'm sure it's not easy to coordinate even the officially married/partnered couples much less other relationships. I know for a fact that each application review is independent of other applications.

Best of luck

I'm guessing they put it in the system on Friday afternoon and had it start being available to those applicants this morning.

Too bad they couldn't set it up so the emails come out first. Seems pretty cold this way!

Mine still says "All the required elements of your application are complete," but maybe today's the day!

mine as well. good luck zorro!

same here. so its seems like Kellogg sends all their dings out for the day early in the morning. If that's so then the next round of dings should go out tomorrow morning. hopefully some of us here some good news before then.

So I went to check my status, and my entire page is blank......All I see is Part I Application (nothing written below) and Part II Application (nothing written below).

It usually said Submitted (and then the date).

What the hell!? For those of you that saw Dings, was it just there on your front page. Maybe they are updating mine with a ding....DAMNIT

You are looking in the wrong place. There is a separate link to click on that says "Check Application Status."

Lame quesiton, but for speculation purposes, anyone wants to take a guess about the chances of those who have not gotten a deicison yet (worse or better?)

I don't think any speculative estimate of probability at this point would be either remotely accurate or even vaguely helpful at this point. They are doing them as they complete them. The odds only matter when they are holding your application in their hands and making a decision.
