Did anyone receive an interview update from Kellogg? I just received an update and they said they waive my interview. I think it’s a rejection
Due to the high demand for interviews and limited availability of interviewers, you may receive an interview waiver. Waivers will not have a negative impact on your candidacy.

Same 😔 does anyone know if this has happened before and have people gotten in without interview?

The ones whose interviews have been waived off, did you do your video essays?

I did video essay. And I actually received interview invite a month ago. 2 weeks ago I followed up to the adcom to ask the interview schedule but they said they were still trying to find interviewer. And just last night they sent me email saying my interview is waived

I wouldn’t read too much into it...if they extended an interview invite, it means your profile is competitive and at par with the cohort they wish to recruit...IMO, interview is their way of evaluating your English speaking skills and checking how to react to different behavioral prompts...since you’ve responded to KIRA questions, they have some evidence around these areas...
Keep your fingers crossed and hope for the best...good luck!

I spoke to a consultant about what getting interviewed waived means and asked him if it can considered sort of as a rejection and he said pretty much yes

but one never knows I think we’ll all get to know now on 28th of Mar only

Why do we need to write essays for a Kellogg scholarship? Only to then be rejected? Let me write it after.

Apologies if this question has already been asked, but does anyone know if there is a chance that we will hear back from Kellogg with their final decision on Round 2 applicants prior to March 28?
