I guess joe left us after the call.

No, buddy, I'm here and willing to provide as much info as I can without losing too much anonymity. The thing with the Facebook group, though, is that I do not want to join it before the 29th, for reasons that I guess you can imagine.

I think the next big day for you is next Monday, since people were supposed to confirm by today (I think, I might be messing up the dates but HBSGuru posted them on the other thread). So in theory, some people might fail to confirm and then another window of calls might go out before the 29th.
Thanks, I think if they already called 50 people, there is a very low chance that these 50 will withdraw. The question is how many people they called, I know its much, maybe not 50 but much. Congrat again you made a huge step in your life.

Couple of questions:

1) Are you guys taking the "no updates at all" thing seriously, or are you still planning on something?
I read this HBSGuru guy talk about "if you know a Hollywood actor or CEO, make them call", but I'm never sure whether he's being "funny" or serious.

2) Are you guys joint or concurrent degree applicants, by any chance? I am and I'm wondering whether it had something to do at all since now my other degree decision date will coincide with HBS's final decision.

what "no updates thing"? my letter said to use my discretion, which I think and have been advised means updates.

apparently someone got off the waitlist today on BTG. I'm confused because I thought in Dana's email, they wouldn't evaluate waitlisted applicants until AFTER the R3 December 17th deadline ???

You sure that person didnt get off the WL from back in March and just made a late post?

Post the 17th is decision time for WL. If you really think someone got off before that date, maybe you should email Dana to see what the story is?

on the accepted members column on the left, it shows 2 members accepted in the last couple days. one of them (a R2 guy) posted that he got in off the waitlist.

regardless of what adcom said in their email, wouldn't surprise me if they evaluated some waitlisted and R3 apps at the same time. definitely seems like they would have capacity to do it given how quickly they turnaround other stuff...

I know it’s nerve breaking to hear someone got off WL but did not receive any call…… I am….. but I think if we tried our best, then there’s nothing to regret. With that said, finger crossed for all WL club members. Bonne chance! :wink:

new post from dee's blog:

Decisions will come at noon (Boston time) on Wednesday, May 17 (pretty sure is a typo and Dee means Thursday). You'll get an email from MBA Admissions that lets you know your decision is ready. At that point, log in to your application and your decision letter will be there.

Waitlisters can expect to hear an update early next week about how we are going to move forward and when.

We're on schedule to launch the application for the Class of 2015 late next week. I'll do a detailed post here when we do.

Thanks to all of you who've been reading this all season, from all of us in Dillon.
