So, I'm a little embarrassed to ask, because I feel like i'm reading too much into this. Did anyone else receive the financial aid information email? It just gave tips on saving and preparing your finances for b-school, but am wondering if this was sent to all applicants.

Yea. I received something regarding financial planning as well.

It looks like it was sent to everyone. Already looking at some outside scholarships but some of them require you to have an acceptance already.

Yes, I did too. It doesn't mean that they have granted us admission. So, don't get too excited. :wink:

Anyone getting a positive confirmation from Rebecca on the interview date? I emailed her last week but yet to receive anything...

I got a confirmation from her yesterday. She is super busy scheduling interviews for everyone so make sure you follow up with her! Good luck!

Congrats to all those of you who got interview calls!

Just wondering for us waitlisted folk: How are you planning to send in updates to Nicole? Email? Or as a word doc attachment in the email?

Ok. finished. Here is my experience.

I was interviewed by a one-year MBA student (I am applying to the one year program too). And he did not read my resume beforehand. SO it is a completely blind interview.

The entire process is pretty conversational. He started by talking about his background and asking me to talk about my self. After there, there were only two distinct questions. one is what I did before my PhD (I talked a lot about my PhD experience, because my working experience is limited) and the other question that how I would plan out my experience at Johnson in the upcoming. and that's about it. Since both of us are tech PhDs and the main part of interview is basically us exchanging experiences. He is very nice and very engaging and I really enjoy the conversation. But I am not very sure if he gets the information he wants.... (He didn't take much notes either...lol)

After that, I was introduced to some of his classmates, because when he walked me out, the class is over and there were a lot of ppl at the lobby.

Before that, I met two other candidates, one from Brazil and one from Spain. Sage 111 has a place where you can store your clothes....

I felt that I talked too much during the entire process...Everybody good luck!!!

Thanks EthanLi !

Interesting that yours was completely blind!

Glad to hear that there weren't any "trick" questions.

I've got an interview on campus scheduled for Monday, the 17th. I'm flying into Rochester, and driving down to Ithaca Sunday night. For folks that are flying in, consider Rochester/Syracuse as they are on average about $150 cheaper than flying in to Ithaca. I'll report back after my interview with questions etc..
IS anyone else in Ithaca on Monday? If so, let's meet up!

Have a safe trip. Ithaca might be cold then. Good luck and have fun!

I am sending in stuff as attached PDF files. My advice is don't do word files, formatting could get messed up.
