Got the call around 8:30 PST, and was incredibly inarticulate. with wl at HBS, I think my mind is made up. Looking forward to meeting those of you who were lucky (and that what all this is - luck), and good luck to those of you off to other places!

Just glad it's all over...

Fellow waitlisters, how are you guys holding up? It feels bittersweet because there are only two outcomes from here: eventual rejection or acceptance.

The former kind of sucks because it means that your rejection was dragged out for an additional two months. The latter also kind of sucks because you have to live with the knowledge that they didn't quite like you as much as the other folks they accepted.

Am I looking at this completely the wrong way?

Yes! If they ultimately reject you, it means they thought you were close to a good fit - which you should feel pretty damn good about.

If they accept you - it doesn't matter if you were their best or worst admit - they still think you are good enough to be a part of their class. More importantly, noone cares what rank you entered. You will graduate with a Stanford degree and get the exact same experience as everyone else.

In other words - you should be positive and feel honored in both cases. So smile :-D

Thanks icemanjs4! Logically, I agree with you but it's harder to get a hold on the emotional aspect. From conversations with a few GSB students, it seems like nobody knows anyone who was waitlisted (yet at least a few of them must have been!). It seems to be a rather sensitive subject on campus.

No chatter on this site yet, but I'm wondering if it's because either invitees have been staying silent or aren't on this forum. Anyone out there with an R3 interview invite? Please raise your hand.

Adcom site indicates early April to mid-May. Just surprised we haven't heard a peep in spite of its being past the early part of April.
