Congratulations on the interview invitation!!!

They are still calling R1 applicants! So that makes me wonder when will they start calling R2 applicants :roll:

What do you guys think?

I'd guess mid-December.

Just got an interview invite

Has anyone else interviewed yet? Any advice? Thanks!

Congratulations! And best of luck!! Check past comments on this thread - someone had posted the questions that he was asked during the on-campus Haas Interview.
It seemed like it was a fit interview basically and the interviewer only had a resume.

Could you share some information on when you applied and your background! It would help some of us still waiting to hear back.

Sure!
I applied R1. international background but work in the US ~3 years work exp. Marketing, 730 GMAT, 3.6 GPA.
I'll be interviewing with an alum, but havnt heard from him yet!

Hey Guys,

Does anyone have any insight into the latest interview % and interview admit % stats? I searched around gmatclub and other sites and I found one source but its dated 2008.

"Haas: Interviews around 25%-ish, and accepts around 65-75% (they have a slightly higher acceptance rate than most schools because of Super Saturday--a higher majority of students"

Congrats to those invited for i/v. Have any invites gone out to International applicants yet (R1) ? Just curious since Haas spreads out the invites until end of Dec I guess and I haven't seen anyone from outside the US post about an i/v call.

It's a generic email. I received it 3-4 weeks before receiving an interview invitation.

Yep, I also received the same email and I just applied R2. I think this is an email that goes out to everyone with completed application.

Hi! I have applied for R2 too but havent received that email

Do you guys think I should email them to know if everything is OK with my application? How much time after you submitted your application did you receive that confirmation email?

My application status is still Received since the day I submitted it!

Thanks!

When did you submit your apps? I submitted mine on 11/28, one day before the due date... (not that 1 day would make a significant difference).

Im just afraid that since I am international, they havent received my TOEFL or maybe there is sth wrong with my Peruvian transcripts!
Although since I havent received that email, I think they havent even opened my application, am I right?

GREAT....! sth else to be more anxious! :shock:

Maybe internationals are going to be review later? :-D

Well, anyway... I reviewed the Haas FAQ and they said that it can take up to 4 weeks to let you know if everything is in order and to be patient! So I guess we will have to wait.

I will let you know when I receive the email
