Where did you heard that Kellogg doesn't admit on a rolling basis? Not questioning what you said, but I'm just curious because a friend of mine added Kellogg Class of 2014 to his educational information on facebook and he never responded when I asked him about it via text. I've been dying to know if it's possible that he really got accepted in September.

I read it here: https://www.businessweek.com/bschools/rankings/full_time_mba_profiles/kellogg.html But then after reading your post I googled again and found this thread. A Kellogg alum writes: "Kellogg has somewhat of a rolling admission program. There are seperate rounds but usually they start releasing decisions 5 or 6 weeks after the submission deadline. I found out right after Thanksgiving last year, but I also know people who found out the day of the deadline at like 6pm." https://gmatclub.com/forum/schools-with-rolling-admissions-68691.html This seems to suggest otherwise. Really need some clarity on this.

They had 3 spots on the day I asked about and it is in mid-November so I would imagine they are filling up quickly. Does anybody know if they will start reviewing part II of the application before my interview or do they wait until after the interview to look at the essays?

Has anyone from India received interview invites yet?

The admissions are rolling in the sense that they don't sit on their decision once they've made it. At the same time, they like to see how the entire applicant pool looks before they start handing out admits and dings. You'll typically start hearing from the AdCom about 6 weeks before the notification deadline, going straight up to the day of the notification deadline. When I applied in 2008, I was waitlist on the 2nd to last day of Round I notifications, and then admitted in March, about a month before the R2 notification deadline.

Hey quick question about Part 1. In the activities section did you use the 100 characters to describe what you did or what the organization is? A bit confused on what they're looking for here.

Im from India and no I haven't received one yet. One of my recommenders is yet to submit his reco form though.

I had my off-campus interview on Friday. I think I had a similar experience to most people. It was a very casual conversation. I wasn't too nervous but the alum I had made me feel comfortable right off the bat. He didn't actually ask too many questions. He told me about himself then asked me to walk him through my resume. I think in doing so, I was able to answer a lot of the basic questions about leadership, motivating a team, etc. He asked the why MBA now, why Kellogg, and what are your future career plans questions all at once. Having Essay 1 done certainly helped with that! He then took the time to give me some unsolicited, but thoughtful advice on my future plans. At the end, I asked what the process was for him after the interview. He actually showed me (very quickly!) the form they have to fill out. To visualize, think of the form recommenders have to fill out. Starts with a grid to rank the applicant on leadership, communication, etc. Then there are open ended questions on similar traits. One asked about maturity and another asked if the applicant seemed to be listening. I also think there was a question about the applicant's future goals; are they clear, etc. It lasted 50 mins. I feel like it went well, but wish I had more time to work in some other things I was hoping too.

Hi GMATclubbers, I have a question that hopefully someone can answer. I have uploaded an my GMAT score report. In the Score Report Recipients section I have 5 schools, none of which is Kellogg. Do you think it is a wise to submit only the first page that has score/percentiles or do I need to submit all three pages?

Schools expect you to submit ONLY the first page which lists all your scores - that's it. The 3rd sheet is anyways redundant - everyone's report has that, and the second page is your little space of privacy which they don't expect you to disclose. You can check anywhere, even with the adcom. The first page is all they need
