Congrats to all those who received invites...some early birds on this forum...

Not that I have thoroughly examined the posts from the year-ago class... Nevertheless, it seems like some notifications went out unusally early this year. I think the general consensus is that Indian applicants are notified very close to the deadline--or day of. Both applicants who posted their interview invites are from Europe. However, we're dealing with a small sample. Interesting, but it's hard to speculate or extrapolate any meaningful impact on the rest of the applicant pool (non-Indian/Chinese groups).
I suspect that INSEAD is faced with an increased volume of applicants from non-EU countries, in light of the confusion caused by the recent changes in the UK post-study work visa rules. Several UK MBA programs have indicated that they saw a decline in foreign applicants, although not immensely devastating.
Good luck to all.
