Anybody interviewed at the campus yet? or interviewing on Monday?

I'll be there on Monday to interview. We will probably cross paths if you are attending office hours/class visit... good luck!

Dan

I am interviewing at 10.15. Will see you around. Luck to you too Cheers Ankit

I interviewed on campus (which I would recommend). It seems that most people get interviewed by adcom, but for some reason (I hope it's not a bad signed), I was interviewed by a second year student. The interview itself went really well - my interviewer was nice and very talkative. I felt like I had a good opportunity to learn about what she liked/didn't like about Johnson while she learned about me. It certainly felt more "conversational" than my other interviews at Tuck and Fuqua; although, I would still describe those interviews as "conversational" compared to a typical job interview.

Word of advice for those of you heading to Ithaca soon: if you're like me and from the west coast or a similar climate, bring warm clothes. It was around 28 degrees Fahrenheit when I was there ("unseasonably cold" for November, according to some people I talked to)

It's not a bad sign you got a 2nd year...typically the 2nd years sit in on interviews with the adcom to get trained, so as the admissions season goes on, there are more 2nd years prepared to interview applicatns. Since Tuck knows people will be coming to campus in September to interview, my bet is that they train the 2nd years in August in preparation for that.

thank you tochenzo, for your response!! i knew that johnson might send out invites till the last minute. however,my situation is that i am international, and some people from my country who submitted their apps a fews days later than me had already recieved their invites two more weeks ago! i just wonder if johnson always interviews more competitive applicants at first, and then interviews less competitve ones later?? i know maybe there is still hope, but guess i am not good enough for johnson.

i submitted my application days before R1 deadline, and now it should have been "under review" for more than a month. can i, therefore, assume that the situation is not optimistic?? that i am probably dinged by Cornell??

No, if you read past posts you will see many instances where adcom may extend an interview invite up until the notification date.

hi, everyone, my question still remains: why someone who submitted their apps a few days later than other applicants might sometimes(assuming that they are based in the same region) recieve interview invite eariler?? Does it means that they are more competitve and the school is more interested in them?? if anyone has any idea, please share!! thank you!!

No it doesn't mean that at all. Johnson has said it reviews by region, but the order of invites is 100% random.

That's too bad, I was leaving just before the Sage Social to drive back.

Haven't seen any skype interview invites lately... are people still getting invites or has anyone been in touch with the ad com to confirm that invites will be sent out till decision date (just like last year)?
