The group is secret. Once you log into the admitted students site, there is a link to a form to request access.

Hi everyone!
I know there is an admitted students secret facebook and I filled out the quick form on the website with my name and whatnot, but what happens afterwards? Will you receive the group invite? (I submitted my info quite a few days ago, was wondering how long it took for everyone to see the facebook page)
Thanks in advance for your help!

Not sure how others felt, but I thought Connect I was fine -- not amazing, not awful, but just fine. It was nice to meet a variety of admits and to get current students' perspectives on recruiting and career optionality, and I ran into some friends who I hadn't realized had been admitted, which was fun.
But, I will say that I found Connect I a little bit lacking in facilitating connections between admits. For example, we started the morning by doing icebreakers in small clusters - "share a fun fact about your neighbor with the group". We then never did any other cluster-based activity, but instead met either as an entire group (200 students?) or in focused panels; I thought it would have been easier to get to know people in more depth if we had been consistently together with a smaller cluster for more of the day. I also wished that the cluster activity had been more of a basic intro (name, undergrad school, what you're doing now, what you hope to do post-MBA) instead of a fun fact, since I think that would have made it easier to strike up conversations based on commonalities.
Then again, I generally prefer meeting people in smaller groups and getting to know everyone in a bit more depth, as opposed to making a ton of acquaintances in a large group, so... YMMV? Would be curious to hear what others thought as well!
