How you doing, fellas? Does anyone have any info on the number of applicants to Tepper? HBS says that it receives close to 10k applications per year, so my guess would be around 3-4k applications for Tepper.. Whatsay?

Also, how are you guys coping with this looooonnggg wait till March 25? Let's lighten the mood here a bit.

Page one of this thread says that they had ~1500 applicants last year.

I'm just keeping too busy to think about it. March isn't that far away now ;)

Although this is a fairly old article, but it states the number of applciants to be ~1500, so we can assume it to go to max 2000 this year, not more than that IMO

Guys the 'interview registration' page shows that the last interview slot is for 11am ET, 28th Feb. Maybe they roll out more invitations after that.

Either way, I suppose there is no harm in dropping a mail and asking the adcom whether the second wave is coming. Good luck!

This doesn't really matter right now, but I still thought you all might be interested - With the new Tepper facilities being built in just a couple of years, I've heard that they plan to increase the number of students from 200 to 300. My guess is that will also increase the 1,500 applicants quite a bit as well.

I knew from poets and quants that Tepper is looking to increase its intake, so I talked to my interviewer about it. She told me that isn't gonna be abrupt change and they are looking to increase the intake over 3-4 years.
That kind of is OK since they really are investing a tonne of money in the infra.

FYI, Tepper is on break the first two weeks of March, so you may not see much...

He just said that they're "releasing on a rolling basis". I joined a little late. If anyone else attended and heard something more that I didn't, please do post.

I flew out of Pittsburgh yesterday and it was pretty far from being a blizzard, at least by western PA standards. In any case, I doubt it would have much impact on interview invitations. I think they just had a ton of applicants this round.
