I am just as anxious, my friend :-).

According to R1, the calls start early tomorrow morning.

Was there a geographic order to the calls in R1?

Hmm. Didn't get into specifics. First call (from what I saw) was at 4am ish EST. So...Asia maybe?

I read through last year's thread a while back and it seemed the calls for the past two rounds (R2 last year, R1 this year) were done over the first 12-16hrs of the day before the release date (i.e. starting 1am PST on the 29th for us), starting in China/India and working west. Prior to that, the historical pattern seemed to be calls starting the evening before the release date. Suggests Monday calls are unlikely but it could either be an exciting Tuesday morning or a looong afternoon...


Bottom line - definitely a call if admitted, probably starting tomorrow AM, with some forewarning if you are not in China/India.

Seems like a succinct and accurate answer to me.

Guessing that admissions calls to China should start going out in about 3 hours (morning of March 29th in Asia)? Let the action begin.

A lot of the reported invites were first-time posters, which skews the data.

Stanford has been very cruel to its applicants. first they sent interview invites in no order all through the application round and now, they are calling admitted students. Too much uncertainty for applicants in their model. I sat through Wharton notification day and it was not fun to hear people getting calls and to keep checking my phone hoping it would ring. I didn't apply to Stanford thankfully. Good luck to all waiting to hear something today.
