Got waitlisted...I checked my email this morning and got one from Texas telling me to check my status.

That's OK--I'm definitely going to UCLA!

When did you get the email?

This morning? Sorry to hear that dcdevil, but I can't imagine you're that upset seeing as you're now going to UCLA!

I too got waitlisted this morning. I got an email at 7:15 am CDT telling me my status had changed. Waiting to hear from UVA on Tuesday, but my options are shrinking.

I think when status changes, an email always follows early the next morning rather than immediately. For example, I got access to the interview scheduler on Thursday afternoon, then got an interview invite email at 6:30am the next day. When I got accepted, my status changed the day I got the call, but the next morning (saturday) I got an email saying my status had changed.

Lesson is, always check your status before you go to bed!

I hope you are right. If so, do you think that applies to applicants already on the waitlist? Someone earlier said we would hear between May 15 and June 15, so I am not holding my breath. Guess we will find out on Monday.

I 2 have received a waitlist email this morning. There was a discussion on the Duke thread some time ago indicating they may have waitlisted all remaining app's due to class size. It doesn't seem like there has been any final round admits; Texas may have done something similar.

He was joking regarding Monday... as in, don't lose hope, it could happen monday! Historically, (if you look at page 1) acceptances have overwhelmingly been on Fridays, but not always.

Yes, hopefully. I really hope I hear something by the end of this week. The anticipation is killing me. McCombs has been my top choice for a long time now and I finally felt ready to apply.

Hi guys,

I am currently waitlisted (from round 2), and was recently told that I will probably hear something on May 17. Of course, I can't guarantee the accuracy of this - but thought my fellow waitlisters might want to know.

Thanks, that's something. I won't hold my breath though. They seem to take their sweet ol' time.

Since I've been posting in this thread, I guess it's time to be added to the roll call... Applied in March, interviewed in April, and have not heard anything since. Not accepted, not waitlisted, and not dinged, so I'm just waiting it out.

Hope we all hear something soon!

Had not seen that, pretty good. The singer is the same girl that writes an MBA blog for business week. Dealbreaker chronicled a few of these "MBA follies" videos a couple of weeks ago. Darden had a couple of good ones.
