Gave both the interviews last week and waiting for the responses. Do you know how long they take to get back with the answer?

Round 3, which if you interviewed in March you were in R3, should be hearing back by APRIL 1st. I believe they send an email saying the application status has been updated and a phone call.

Decision was uploaded to the website yesterday, FYI

You're*. Omit the "or not". I take it that the verbal portion of the GMAT was not your specialty.

Phone call. Email.

Still kind of debating. After talking with students who have gone through it, it sounds like the evening program allows for a bit more camaraderie/involvement but the weekend program allows for much more flexibility.

I'm weekend right now, and am debating switching to evenings.

Awesome news. Did you end up making a decision?
I am applying for the weekend program. I don't travel a lot for my job, but when I do I have to be able to go. That was the major deciding factor for me.

Rude? It's a free grammar lesson. You'll be creating presentations for class and I'd imagine your classmates expect you to be able to spell.

Congratulations, Patrick! I am in the same boat as yours. Gave both the interviews last week and waiting for the responses. Do you know how long they take to get back with the answer?

It would be helpful to know what you ultimately decide. Let me know your thought process as well on choosing what you end up with.

UT quoted me 3 weeks, Rice quoted me 4 weeks and both were true to their word.

I'll be sure to update you with my decision, and would be happy to discuss with you if you want - personally, I'd love to hear your thoughts on the UT program, since I haven't talked to as many people from it as I have from Rice. I'm in downtown and it's pretty easy for me to bounce out for a coffee.

Congrats Patrick - sounds like you chose Rice. I just gave both interviews UT and Rice and while I'm waiting to hear back from them, I was wondering can you tell what made you choose Rice over UT?
I'm trying to put in a lot of pros and cons of each and I'm leaning towards Rice (so hoping I get the admit).

Hello a Little late to the party but i am in as well !!

How was your application process? I am currently looking at applying in April of 2018 and have started studying for the GMAT to take it sometime in September. Any tips would be appreciated.
