In at Haas!
I am a long-time lurker who got his first YES last night. So far my progress has been (all consortium except CBS):
Decisions:
Haas - Admit
Yale - WL
Still waiting to hear from (but have interviewed at):
Stern
Dartmouth
Columbia
UCLA
A few bits of intelligence that I got from Haas admissions during the phone call:
- Consortium fellowship decisions are to be released on 3/19 - any non-Consortium fellowship/scholarship decisions are to be made/applied for following the Consortium decision on this date

She knew where I had ranked Haas - (i.e. - oh no - the schools know!)[u]
- Days at Haas is happening on the weekend of 3/16
- Deposit deadline of 4/15
Hi congrats with your application, I am interested in your comment on the school ranking.
I was dinged by HBS by the way, I am a R2 applicant on Harvard, UCLA and Stanford, and R3 on Haas
In my Haas application I remember I was asked to state to which other programs I had applied. I stated that I had applied to Harvard, Stanford, UCLA and Haas. I do not recall any ranking though. It was stated that this information was strickly for statistical purpose.
Based on your comment I am now wondering if it was a mistake to give away this information, My concern is that I might have somehow "insulted" the Haas admission by applying to programs that are somehow "more sought after" then Haas but stating in my essay that Haas was my first choice.
There are not many applicants that turn down Harvard and Stanford. I hope it makes sense what I am trying to say.
In before hand I knew that the odds of getting into Stanford and Harvard were very slim.. therefore I am betting on UCLA and Berkeley, from those two Berkeley is clearly my first pick

hope to hear your comments on this, thanks and good luck to you all
