Submitted my application for Round 1. Any one else who submitted their application by Round 1 ?

I am in

Submitted mine for R1. Got an email with an interview invitation. Anyone else get an invite yet? Wasn't sure if it was the official nod by the way the email was worded at first.

Hey, congrats..

BTW What does your checklist say about your application status!?

Posted from my mobile device

Thanks! It says "To dept for review".

Hey! Congratulations

How long did it take for them to respond? My application has been in the 'To dept for review' status for almost 2 weeks now with no update either

Hello All,

My application status says "Hold: Missing Bachelor Transcript".

Can you please advice on what needs to be done next?

Thanks,
Anuj

About a week. I was talking directly with an admissions rep leading up to submitting my application about 7 days out from the round 1 deadline so not sure if that had anything to do with why I got an invite so quick. I'm
Assuming the fact that my app was in before the last second rush by a lot of applicants had something to do with the timing of the interview invite.

Hey Anuj,

Have you missed uploading any document that they asked for - transcript / score sheets? If yes, they expect those to be mailed to them directly - address is mentioned in the page that has the expansions for each status.

But one thing to be noted is even though I had uploaded all the required documents, the status showed 'Hold: Missing Bachelor Transcript' for about half an hour after submitting the application. If it has been so for quite some time though you have uploaded all the documents, just open a ticket with your query. They are really helpful and reply within a day or so.

Hope this helps!

Regards,
Ashwini

Hey Future MBAs, I am a current student at Scheller. Let me know if you have any questions.

Hello everybody,

I hope you are doing well. I interviewed with the career services manager and the manager of the MBA program on the 10th. If you do one thing, I would recommend knowing your work history back and forth and being able to talk about your responsibilities, involvement in teams, and whatever leadership responsibilities you may have had.

Think about what makes you a unique candidate, and what you can add to the program. Other than saying they liked my essay and one of the letters of recommendation, we did not discuss them at all. I had a ton of questions ready, and for me the interview was very conversational. It was more of a back-and-forth than anything. All in all, the staff at the MBA office was ultra professional, genuine, and nice.

all who have successfully submitted the app.

Can you please tell me what are the recommendation questions? Thanks in advance.

Is scheller done rolling out interview invites?
