For all of those waiting, I totally know how much it sucks. To provide more transparency, here's some information that will hopefully help:

The bad news:
All March interview slots have been taken.

The good news:
There's a ton of interview slots in April

What it means for R2 applicants?
I've called Stern and they said that since they do rolling admissions, getting interviewed in April after the R2 decision date doesn't mean getting pushed to R3 (she said there is no concept of "rounds" for Stern). For those who have not heard back before 4/1, you will either get a waitlist or ding. Waitlisted candidates will have a chance to get invited to an interview, but this doesn't mean you are in R3. Again, she said there's no concept of rounds for admitting people. They just admit on a rolling basis all the way till before class starts.

this is interesting - that means that a lot of R2 applicants, if admitted, won't be able to attend admit wkd 4/15 because it takes time to render a decision and make travel plans. and i believe deposits are due 4/27. a lot of action is happening at stern.

Calm down people! A good friend of mine applied round one and got his invite 3 days before the deadline, he interviewed after the R1 deadline and got in. It's not over until it's over. Take a chill pill and order one for me as well :-)

does anyone know of stern to ask logic/brain teaser questions during iv? an old colleague of mine told me he was asked logic questions during his iv, couldnt really answer them, and got WL. not sure if he's pulling my leg.

i've gone through every page of the clear admit nyu iv guide and wiki and found no such thing.

They definitely ask questions that require you to think on the fly. But these aren't logic questions like how many cabs are there in NYC, but more related to your background. For example, if you claim that you like X course, they can ask what you really like about it, and probe further based on your responses.

i was worried too and did not hear back until 22 days later; however, got a 40K scholarship, so they may be evaluating scholarships a little longer

i know the wait sucks but do not assume the worst, i was in the same position
