My status is still the same. "Your application is complete for committee review". Anyone else with no status update yet?

Question for FEMBA round 1 applicants: Have you received your decisions yet? How long after the deadline did they issue decisions?

I'm a round 2 applicant (FEMBA). Just had my interview on Sat 2/26 (Super Saturday) with a 2007 graduate. Questions were basic:

1) Walk me through your resume and experience
2) Why UCLA?
3) Why FEMBA?
4) Why now?
5) Describe a time your experience where you displayed leadership

Interviewer kept a watchful eye on the time limit since she had another one immediately after.

Best of luck to everyone! Thank you in advance for the responses.

Just out of curiosity, did most people submit the "optional video" essay? And do you know if that affects your chances?

I didn't, and I got accepted with a scholarship offer. So it's not necessary, though a good video/audio/essay submission couldn't hurt.

Hey emont,
Do they tell you about whether or not you get a scholarship on the same day they tell you you're accepted?

Yep, the AdCom member mentioned it over the phone and the followup email had more details about the fellowship. If I remember right the phone calls for admits started going out a day prior to the actual notification date.

Great, thanks for the heads up. Best of luck to you. Looks like you're already set. No too bad if you "settle" for UCLA or Berkley.

Hello folks,

Take this for what it is, but I know how waiting sucks, for those of you in R2 that are still waiting. I just checked the invite site, and there are no more open slots, and they go up to 3/17. Again, anything can happen, but I just wanted to give as much info as possible for those you are still on pins and needles.

Good luck to everyone.

Thanks thelamb0508. My status is still "Your application is ready for committee review". Seems like the end of the game but I refuse to give up.... waiting!
