Ankit, I self-initiated my interview. Per the Tepper website:

" Before making your interview request, please read our suggestions regarding who should request an on-campus interview. Interviews may be requested on-campus starting September 10th until November 26th, 2012. We try to accommodate as many on-campus interview requests as possible, but unfortunately, cannot guarantee every visitor an interview appointment. To request an on-campus interview before November 26th, please fax a copy of your resume and your GMAT score (if you have taken the test) to 412-268-4209. The fax should also include the date of your visit and your contact information. Please note: interview requests can be accommodated only on-campus.

After November 26th, all admissions interviews are granted by invitation only, based on our review of your submitted MBA Application. Please note that interview invitations may be extended at any time after you submit your application, up until the date that your admission decision is released."

Live Essay Writing Workshop, presented by Admissionado


Sigh. The MBA Application essays. Who thought it was a good idea to ask people to write 2000 words before they even get INTO school? Turns out, it doesn’t matter, because someone did… and now you have to come up with the most compelling and memorable essays about leadership that you can. And then do it again for every school you apply to.

It’s not easy, but this upcoming event should help. Submit your MBA Application essay to have an opportunity to have it reviewed for free by the team at Admissionado. Three essays will be selected, and if you are one of the lucky ones, you will have the opportunity to go through your essay with Phillip Herring (admissions expert and CBS MBA) in a live session. You will need to be OK with sharing your essay with attendees (don’t worry – we’ll keep your name/private info out of it), and available and online at the time of the event to chat it up with Phillip. Even if you aren’t selected, listen in, because there will still be plenty of essay advice to go around.

Submit your essay to lauren@admissionado.com by Monday, December 3. You will find out if you are selected by Wednesday, December 5. Then join the live event on Thursday, December 6 at 6pm PST. Register Now [FREE!]

Yes, but the deadline has passed (Nov 25th).

I initiated my interview a few weeks ago.

Why MBA?
How have you worked with other functional teams in your company?
How have you manage a difficult team?
What do you do in your spare time?
Any additional questions?

Very conversational. I'm sure he would have asked more questions but I used my responses to transition into responses for other standard questions (yTepper, how do you plan to contribute, etc).

Hi All,

As I understand it, interview invites are still sent out up to the deadline. I know this doesn't really help anyone's nerves, but please don't lose hope.

And I assume that happens on the decision date. Nothing before.

Presuming you applied Round I, the website states that decisions are released tomorrow, December 19th.
