Congratulations to those who received invites today! :-D

At this point, I'm thinking that I didn't make the cut since I haven't received one, but am wondering about what Soojin posted on her blog yesterday. She said:

"Last wave of Round 2 interview invitations will go out late tomorrow afternoon. Remember that if you're not invited to interview, it doesn't necessarily mean you're heading to deny. Applicants whose materials were not complete at the time of the application deadline may not have undergone the requisite reviews. We're doing our best to get through the apps in a timely and thorough fashion."

In my Consortium application, I mentioned to them that I was going to take the GRE as well (just because my GMAT score was not stellar) on or around 2/15.

While I'm fully prepared to accept the fact that I just didn't make it, does anyone have a perspective on whether they could be awaiting my GRE scores to extend an invitation to interview? Or would that just not happen?

Got the invite! They made me sweat it out to the very end

Congrats and good luck to those who received invites today! Packfan, assuming your name is referencing the GB Packers, then I'm especially pulling for you to get in so that I'll have at least one fellow fan in what is sure to be a city with mostly Detroit Lion fans!

I didn't get the invitation either. My application was complete on the application deadline, so I guess I'm heading to straight denial. I wish I had been waitlisted at least, so I get to report them my new GMAT score that I plan to take next week.

Any thoughts on whether we should keep any 1% hope?

Congrats to those who received the invite.

Soojin herself says that not getting an interview DOES NOT MEAN you're straight to ding. Keep an open mind.

yes, I agree, but she refers to those apps which were not complete by the deadline. Btw, can we check any status on the application page whether the app has already been reviewed or yet to be reviewed?

R1 applicants, did you see any status on the application page when you guys were waiting for interview invite? I can go to the page 1 but can not go beyond 1.

Thanks.

My status still says: Payment Accepted, Data Sent, Received, Confirmed.

Did everyone had the same status before the interview invite?

R2 applicant here...
I didn't get an invite yet; however, they had contacted me about my missing application materials...
I only completed their required missing materials on only 26th of January...And they responded on the same day that only at that time my application was complete....
And having read the Soojin's post on Ross' admission blog, I do not think I need to worry yet...
Yes, I love Polyanna..

What was the missing document? Since they usually push you to the next round if all the required documents are not received by the app deadline. Anyway, did you not receive any email notification from Ross before Jan 26 that your application was complete?

Where do you see this status? I don't see this at all. I used Mozilla to submit the application. I guess all the entries were correctly submitted. When I login now, I can not go beyondpage 1; clicking on page 2 throws an error that page 1 contains incomplete information. I don't know what that means.

Thanks.

It doesn't change when you get an invite. My understanding is that it isn't meant to read any differently until the official decision date.

Also, for those who did not get invites today, Soojin's post from 11/22 states "If you have not received an interview invitation (be sure to double-check your spam folders!), you should not automatically assume that you will be “rejected” at the end of this round; you may be waitlisted and invited to interview at a later date." That was in reference to R1, of course, but hopefully it applies equally to R2.

I share the link where Soojin made her announcement on wave 3...

"Last wave of Round 2 interview invitations will go out late tomorrow afternoon. Remember that if you're not invited to interview, it doesn't necessarily mean you're heading to deny. Applicants whose materials were not complete at the time of the application deadline may not have undergone the requisite reviews. We're doing our best to get through the apps in a timely and thorough fashion."

Source: https://rossblogs.typepad.com/admissions ... ivity.html

I was an international applicant, they wanted me to get a copy of my bachelor's and master's diploma translated by a certified translator....That part was missing...
I do not think that they would push me to the next round...

Because when they contacted me about my missing materials on January 23rd, they gave me 7 days to complete them...By Jan 26th, I completed the missing materials and on the same day they turned back to me and notified that my application was complete and ready to review...If I were not able to complete these missing materials within those given 7 days, I might be pushed to the next round...I draw this conclusion on the assumption that:
They stated in their e-mail that if I were not able to accomplish their request within those 7 days, I might be pushed to the next round...However, It is still not definite, there is the possibility...Perhaps seems to be a little bit complicated but let us wait and see...

Yes!!!! Got my invite!! It was a couple of days ago but I just checked my email. Earlier I was pretty discouraged and thought that my Ross journey was over but not. Phew! Btw in the interview scheduler did you guys use the same resume you used for application or did you update it (I have one extra bullet point that I would like to add)?
