Big Dre...best of luck to you. I will be in the same boat shortly. How and when did you send your transcripts. If you overnighted, did you send to the "overnight" address on the GIAC form? I wondered if they would check that during business hours.

I didn't overnight my transcript, I just sent it regular mail. I had an extra sealed copy from my college registrar office. There is a form that you have to complete to ensure that they link your transcript to the correct application. It is fairly straightforward, and available, I believe, on the first page of the application. If you send the transcript directly from your college, you don't need this form. Let me know how that works out for you. Best of luck to you as well.

Full disclosure - I just panicked and decided to overnight my transcript....

No calls or notifications today.

I applied before the first deadline, interviewed just before Thanksgiving and have still not heard back. Fingers crossed! Hopefully, will hear something tomorrow.

Had a question- has any international student received a decision? Wondering if they are processing the R1 domestic applicants first.

All the best to everyone.

OMG! My GMAT score is missing!
My score report history clearly shows it reported to The Red McCombs School of Business - MBA, Full Time Austin TX, USA on 12/21/2009.
But, application status check at UT still harasses me with Need an official GRE or an official GMAT score report from the test agency.

Does anyone fall in the same situation ?

yuskay- just call the GIAC (not the business school). They are usually very helpful. They probably might not have updated the records. I had a small problem with one of my updates and I called them. They fixed it even before the phone call ended. Unless they show your records as complete, the B-school might not process your app.

Yuskay, I had a similar issue and I called the GIAC and they fixed it immediately over the phone. They try to match everything in your application by your SSN, but if you don't report that on your GMAT, apparently you can run into a few issues. The woman I spoke to was super nice and helpful.

FYI, I emailed McCombs AdCom yesterday about my application status and they wrote back: "A final decision has not been made on your application at this time. You will be notified as soon as it has. You should have a decision by the end of the month. We appreciate your patience as we are managing a high volume of applications."

I am a domestic R1 applicant so hopefully that means that not hearing by now isn't a ding.

Thank you. I am now calling both parties to fix the situation. Well, a man at GIAC told me he found an access record by Austin electrically.

It stands for Social Security Number. If you are an international student, you probably don't have one.

No one heard from McCombs today either? I was told I would hear by the end of this week and I am glued to the comp checking my status every other minute. But all I get is the Dean's message. It is already 3.30 PM Central and the office will close in an hour and a half.

By the way a question for everyone- Does the adcom work on Saturdays? Did anyone here get a call on Saturday?
