Any Consortium applicants here admitted? I got a phone call from Elaine last Wednesday with the great news of being admitted but haven’t received any email or portal login or anything yet. Posted from my mobile device

did anyone receive a physical admission package this year?

Any admits here for the USC IBEAR (1-yr) MBA program for 2021? As I couldn't find a thread dedicated for this specific program, thought I would post on this thread. I would love to connect with any incoming students, both from IBEAR and the 2-year MBA program. Thanks! Ayesha

Congratulations ayeshagh I have started the following topic. https://gmatclub.com/forum/calling-all- ... 45194.html

I am a Round 2 applicant. Do we need to send the GMAT scores for the evaluation to begin?

I applied in the round 2. Do I have to send my original transcripts to USC before their decision or will the scanned copy uploaded in the application suffice?

Anyone received interview invitation for Round 2? Thanks!

A new Marshall Interview Debrief has just been posted: https://gmatclub.com/forum/marshall-208/interview_debrief.html#debrief-1621

Did anyone get accepted in R2 after an interview? I was interviewed on the 14th of January and I am yet to hear back from them. I know I need to stay positive but prolonged waiting time makes me think of the worst..

I've been lurking on this thread for weeks now but just made an account to chime in. I interviewed Jan 15th with Grace. If we look at Gandis in the R1 admissions timeline, it looks like it took about 40 days from application close to the first reported admissions decision. If the same schedule applies, we should expect to start hearing about decisions around February 15 - so a couple more weeks out! It's definitely been an anxious few weeks but keep the faith!! Fingers crossed.
