Just received the call! East coast based as well.

Best of luck everyone. I understand how painful and stressful waiting can be. Don't lose hope.

Congratulations. Do you mind sharing your profile. You seem to have really strong profile based on the schools that you have interviewed for.

Congratulations to all admits!

For those of you that were admitted would you mind sharing the current status of your Stanford Application online (e.g. interview complete, in review etc.)?

I'm currently "In Review." Bad sign?

Mine is too. But doesn't seem like they changed the statuses this year like they did last year.

Now it's just crossing our fingers that DB's next call is ours!

Ah, MildlyAnnoyedMax, don't kill my hope quite yet! People got calls until 930pm PST last year (another 2.5 hours!). Not feeling super hopeful, it's true, but holding on to that last thread at least!

Not sure if GSB is calling today, but there are few GSB applicants in chat room waiting for the calls. Those waiting on forum may join them - https://gmatclub.com/gchat/

ding via 'decision posted on portal'. while my interview had mix of good and bad stuff... I guess its "holistic" process.

I've received the decision just a few minutes ago. I'm based in Asia/ME , so maybe they're going E-West. It's quite late at night here. The call is yet to arrive though, but I'm looking forward to it. Good luck to everyone!

Got an email notification - the portal says I've been waitlisted.

Any idea how many people (on average) get WL each year, and what is the probability of getting accepted if WL in the 1st round?

I feel honoured to have even been interviwed. Fingers crossed.

I got waitlisted too. The email message said it was about 80 people put into the waitlist this year, vs up to 200 in previous years. Email said it was random- anywhere from no one to nearly the entire waitlist class, depending on who they see in round 2. I have two other friends who got waitlisted but dropped out because they got into HBS, and I assume many more will do that as well. Fingers crossed.
