"I would expect something next week given the wording on Eileen's email on 2/1."

Hey MBAprep101, did Eileen send an email about the waitlist today? I'm on the waitlist but didn't receive one. If so, what did it say. Thanks!

Are we expecting to hear actual admit/release decisions this week, or receive more information on when we will receive those decisions?

From what I've heard from previous years, we'll get an email letting us know that a group of folks will be getting accepted and released, while the rest will be asked to continue to wait. The accepted will be called over the next week (week from the date of email), and the releases will be notified at the end of that week. Who knows how it will shake out this year, given this is the first year with only 2 rounds. Would be great to get closure asap

Thanks for letting us know! Do you know how early they sent that email after Round 2 interview invites went out? Was it the Monday after? Might be today — all the best everyone. :)

from last year's waitlist thread, it sounds like people didn't hear back (with an official decision) until late march. I'm going to call admissions to ask about timing because other schools have deposits due this week

The woman on the phone said we should get a decision in March with the round 2 decisions

thanks! So she did not say there might a chance of an earlier decision this year similar to 2 years ago?

seems unlikely that they would not accept/release at all until 3/26. At this point, they have read all applications.

Agree, based past trends likely a little movement this week or next week followed by a majority of decisions in late March.

That wasn’t my experience with interview and decisions in R1... we always received updates at noon ET.
