Actually I just realized that I used a different email contact for my MIT app, so I probably did receive one. Nevermind! Just being super paranoid.

This girl is in the MIT Sloan newspaper this month. Don't worry.
It's just advertising info about one student, just for you to read her story.

Am in for r2.

Went for the ambassadors program and attended a marketing class. Was very interesting! The students were super helpful and humble. Felt a nice cosy atmosphere - full of "friends in the making"

Plus E-62 is well made :)

lol... I had my Kellogg interview yesterday on-campus and checked my email this morning to see a message from the Director of Admissions... but it was an email discussing global impact. I know not to expect any word until later, but still gets your heart racing a little.

All:

1.) You should have received a confirmation email after submitting the app. You will not receive communication until decision day unless:
a.) your app is incomplete
b.) you get an interview invite

2.) They (actual adcom members) are just beginning to read apps this week. After submission closed, the rest of the week of the 10/25 was used to print and sort apps. Then Rod took last week to do his Director's Review and weed out those that won't get read by anyone else besides him - so there are already a batch of dings. This week, they're being distributed to Rod's officers for reads.

3.) Rod has described the process in detail - he does a Director's Review, and up to 20% of apps get dings at that point. Then, two admissions officers read each of the remaining files and score them (based on 9 different criterion that they don't release), independently. These scores are then inputted into a system, and the top 18-30% (depending on the round, as they admit the same number in each round but round 1 gets less apps than round 2) get interview invites.

4.) Interview scores are inputted and final decisions are made by Rod/the Committee.

So no, you won't have any interviews invites yet, likely not this entire month. Take a breath.

*Above info based on what has been communicated to me from Rod, Jen Burke-Barba, and Deirdre Kane (Admissions Director and Officers, respectively).

This is all great info, thanks very much!
I'm a little surprised about this, though: I thought that Sloan was being environmentally friendly and rocking the iPads this year for application reviews...?

hm, they did tell me that too. to be honest, i'm not certain whether rod reviews them all on an ipad or not or if he looks at them in hard copy. the sorting process takes a few days nonetheless.

if he looks at 'em in hard copy, at least the two readers are reading it on their ipads so it's saving one additional copy of print.

That is a pretty good sampling. We should know what percentage of GCs get invites and those who convert
