Does anyone know when Tepper's admitted student weekend is? I know I'm getting ahead of myself here, and trying not at all to be presumptuous, but trying to plan out my schedule.

Submitted Tepper in mid December
Interviewed in Mid-January
Have been waiting past 7 weeks and the wait has been killing me...if they reject or waitlist me, I will be heartbroken

Going off past rounds/years, it looks like Tepper is a deadline day e-mail kind of school (as opposed to the calls a few day before kind). Looks like we'll be waiting until the afternoon of the 15th!

I appreciate that they don't leave us waiting by the phone like many other schools.

I appreciate that too. There are very few worse feelings than waiting for a phone call that never comes. I felt like I was being stood up by the school (Booth).

Am I the only one here applying to Tepper in R3? Guess that probably means my app will get processed pretty fast once I submit it.

I got an interview within a week of applying R2, so hopefully you will hear back at least as quickly as I did.

Just a hunch boogs, that people with fee waivers got interviews almost automatically. Mine, yours, coakley's came back within 3 days of the deadline.

Hi all...

I also received the fee waiver email (last Nov) and thinking of applying to R3.. It seems I've a better chance of getting an interview - on the basis of your post =)

Just out of curiosity, what kind of people get the fee waiver and how many did they send those out? It seems a great deal of ppl received the invitations. Also did you guys visit the campus and had the interview on-campus or do otherwise ie through phone and/or with an alum? Did you think it's better to do it on-campus?

Cheers...

I never got a fee waiver. Speaking of which, I still need to call the GMAT people to send Tepper my scores. Well, maybe that's why I didn't get the fee waiver.

Well.. Actually you don't have to send them the score to get the fee waiver.. They just sent me an email saying such and such... I was busy with something else at the time so I postponed Tepper's app till now... and sent them the official score just 2 weeks ago..

I am not sure about the others... but it's a good sign I guess.. =)

During my interview, I asked about it and got the impression it was sent based just on total GMAT score.

I think it was only based on the gmat score. Not too surprising that there's some correlation to getting an interview.

Thanks for the tip milias. That is great, I hate the 5pm EST thing b/c that is 2pm PST. It is good they have 12pm EST.

Just submitted my R3 application. Good luck to all!

I did not get a waiver for the application. for those who did, did you contact the school and requested one or was it initiated by the school?

It was initiated by the school, but I had gone to one of their events beforehand (not sure if that is a factor)
