Safe to assume that if I applied in early Sept and haven't heard back that I'm denied?

KyleM125

Don't assume anything unless you hear it from the admission committee.

Just seems odd to me that other people applied and were invited to interview just days later. Some already admitted. Feels like that means that they reviewed my app and weren't convinced enough to invite me to interview yet. Not a great feeling.

Just gotta keep positive at this point though!
Hey. Am in the same boat as you... but did they start to roll out invites? Really? From the decision tracker, I cant see any admits so far.

Admits or did you mean invites? I've heard of few people getting invites already

Hey dudes, I wrote up my interview experience on clearadmit but figured I'd crosspost it to here. Hope it helps!

As a preface, this is my first and only interview for Round 1 of the Fall 2021 intake. I did two MBA interviews last year and ultimately deferred to this cycle, so I do have some experience. With that said, the interview was friendly as Grace Kim, the director of admissions, is a great interviewer. It is noticeable that she is at least using a mental list of questions if not following a prompt, which makes the interview less conversational, but she did work in a good amount of personal questions as follow-ups to my answers.

The interview lasted 39 minutes, so it did go over but I took that in stride since she asked a lot of questions about my resume. She started by saying it was a blind interview, that she had a copy of my resume, and asked me to give her a quick rundown of my professional experience. This progressed into the following questions:

1. She asked about my leadership among each role I have performed.
2. She asked about why I want an MBA.
3. Because I said consulting, she asked why consulting and if I knew what type I wanted to do.
4. She asked for my long-term goals specifically 10-15 years down the road.
5. She went back to my experience and asked about a time I faced a challenge as a leader.
6. Based on 5, she asked what I did and how I changed my leadership to avoid that challenge in the future.
7. Based on 5, she asked how my team would speak to my improvement.
8. I attended language school for the military, so she asked why I chose my language.
9. She asked why Marshall.
10. I forget the way she worded it, but her final question essentially was to describe a way that people see myself that is inaccurate.

She gave me the opportunity to ask questions even though we were beyond the time limit. All in all, good interview. Sent my thank you email today and she mentioned that Round 1 decisions are somewhat rolling, so results should be out at the earliest in mid-Nov but more than likely in Dec. Hope this helps!

Anyone know if Marshall invites have been flowing? I haven’t seen much movement. Does the online status change when they review the file?

I don't see much movement on the decision tracker either. The last interview update was on October 30th. Did you apply in Round 1?

Thanks. Did you send in official transcripts or just unofficial? I saw on clearadmit that they asked someone for official transcripts.

That was me. I dont know why they asked for some original because i uploaded five unofficial but they only asked for two.

I hope they start releasing some info soon. If you look at the release dates from last year, we're already behind schedule.
