Just got the call from Christine... I'm in!


Congrats!

P.S - Are there any other factors that you will take into account before choosing between Duke and Johnson?

Thanks! Money is the only factor at this point. All things being equal, Fuqua is my preferred school. But if offered a sizable aid, I would definitely consider Johnson.

Thanks, man. I was just telling the people in the chat how Johnson was about to ding me. And then I got a call from Christine. It looks like the whole team is calling a lot of admits today.

Well, that gives me hope yet for a last minute call! I feel that my essays / interviews / stated goals were strong and fit well with their program. It's also my first result, so I am hoping for an admit to keep my confidence high!

Good luck, man! I'm really rooting for you. :)

In any case, let me know if you need help preparing for your Fuqua interview. I'd be glad to help. :)

Here is the messed up part. I am from India and it is almost 1AM (20th) now. I confirmed a few days ago with the Johnson admissions team that they will not give calls to students in the middle of the night. This means that I will not be called on 19th Dec (EST)...ergo, an almost certain ding/waitlist for me :(

I'm really sorry to hear that. I hope you at least get a waitlist tomorrow.
