I think that means you are in. They want to surprise you by calling you first, but they just haven't reached you yet. If you are Ding/waitlist, you should get an email notification already.

Congrats to all admits.
I have a quick point to make. Quite a few of those waitlisted or dinged are expressing sentiments that I think, though understandable given the circumstances, are not necessarily kosher. Everyone admitted had to go through the same steps as those who didn't make the cut - money, time, sleepless nights, etc. Ideally, we enter this process knowing that nothing is guaranteed, because each spot is fought for by several talented applicants - I thus find it hard to understand why some dinged applicants say "I was expecting an admit." No way, Jose. No one should EXPECT an admit, no matter how fantastic your interview or stats were. Would you say the same if you were applying to HSW. Don't forget that many of the same kids apply to the same top ten schools, so it's not realistic to apply to a competitive school like Fuqua and EXPECT an admit, just because you had to spend money to buy to tickets and accommodation. Come on, guys...lets be fair to the hardworking admisson committees and the rigorous admission process.
MBA application can be a really humbling experience and the earlier you approach it with a fair amount of grounding/respect/moderate expectation, the more pleasantly surprising you would find the experience.
All the best to everyone though out the remainder of the app process.

Agreed! Expect the worst, hope for the best!
Congratulations to those who got in and hope to see you at the Blue Devil Weekend!
To those who got waitlisted or rejected, please do not lose hope! This is my first post at this forum, but I am a long time lurker. I will be writing about my experience in details when I hear from other schools as well. I have a very unconventional background and one might even call it very weak at first glance.
Got in to Fuqua with $$.
