That is surprising since you have a good GMAT score. Did they wait list before interview or after interview?

Now I'm really worried about my application ... I already had my interview on Jan 17 yet I still haven't been contacted at all ... Does that mean I'm either waitlisted or have been declined already? :(

I had my pre application interview on Dec 19 and applied by R2 deadline. I also haven't heard from them. I sent a follow up mail few days ago. But no reply. It is really strange !!!
Any one else who had pre application interview waiting for the decision?

I'm still waiting until March 20 before I'll send them an e-mail since that's their deadline for themselves. I'm just getting antsy.

Hi Saswata4s
Did you do a follow up with them or the school sent you a waitlist decision by itself ?

Mine is the same case too. Had my pre-submission interview in Dec, no feedback yet. Not sure what to make out of it but trying to stay positive.

Hi, just fishing for timelines here.

Can people who have already received admission tell how many days it took for them after interview to hear from school?

Also, since scholarship weekend is around the corner and I haven't heard back from the school (after interview), does that mean bad news or no chances of scholarship on admission?


Thanks!

I wonder if anyone had the same interview experience as me. I was only asked two questions, why do I want an MBA and why is my resume so diverse. The interview was very casual like it was just a daily conversation. The chat was pretty long even if I only had two questions but I wonder if it's a bad sign that I wasn't asked more questions beyond those ...

Quick turn around time for Simon. Done my interview, a blind one, tonight.

I had my interview a few days after submitting as well but it's been more than a month and they still haven't replied ... I'm guessing I'll know my fate in 18 days ... though at this point considering a couple applicants from the same round as me have already been accepted ...

Guess we're all in the same boat. I wonder if it means somethng though, that they haven't called us, cause as I said earlier some people from round 2 got their results already.

yeah, even I know a few people getting w/l decision 10 days ago. how come the disparity? Also, is it advisable to write to the school mentioning other admits and pretty tight acceptance deadlines in order to get a decision?
