I interviewed 2/11... I have a feeling it was a mess up in the system that made them release some of the decisions that day though... It really doesn't make sense that they would release them on Thurs, before a holiday, and without letting everyone know, when Mae is so good about keeping it all transparent on her twitter updates. UCLA usually calls everyone and a lot of people found out before they got the call cause it was already posted online, which really makes me think that something happened in the system that they were not expecting.... Well, I'm still hoping for the good news on Wed

Good luck!!!!

It really is torture.... especially when you have been dinged from one school (Booth) and the other 3 all hang in the balance (Anderson, Marshall, McCombs)

..... AHHHHHH

5 dings here. Just this and Marshall left, and didn't get a Marshall interview... so it's pretty much Anderson or bust. Loved Anderson though on my visit, and an admit here would make me ecstatic.

Plus I interviewed on Feb 8, so that interview schedule comment scares me too.

LONGEST DAY EVER!!!! Although something tells me that tomorrow has the capacity to be EVEN LONGER (depending on how it goes).

Good luck everyone!!!

Cheers,

PS Any chance based on Rd 1 or last year that they might start calling today?

Well McCombs is a rolling admit thing too, which is frustrating that I also didn't hear. Both McCombs and Marshall are supposed to release decisions on Thursday I believe.

Just logged in and noticed that the text below the "Submitted Date" which read that "your application is complete and will have a decision released by the notification date" (paraphrasing) no longer appears. Did anyone else also see this change in their application?

Same here.... I remember on the discussion posts for R1, that some people had a note that the application was incomplete, saying that it missed the transcripts. All those people got in! I don't have that in my application page, either they have fixed that problem not to give out any leads or it's not good news... Anyone's page says something like that?

Let's hope the adcom reads GMAT Club and saw the issue in R1...

Hopefully it's just blank for everyone!

Either the day before or the day of decisions (but before calls went out), the status for admits changed from the "your app is complete and you will receive a decision etc" text to a new message about the application needing transcripts to be sent.

It was a real status update for admits, who have to send in an official transcript as the next part of the process.... the update just went up a little early.
