Just wanted to wish everyone good luck! Tomorrow's going to be an interesting day...I'm sure many of us will be sitting at our desks anxiously awaiting for our phones to light up.

The adcom member I did interview with said "don't be worried if you don't get a call the day before, that doesn't mean anything." Implying that maybe they aren't able to reach every admitted student the day before decisions are released.

Keep us all posted as you hear!

Try to be productive at work. I got called at 8:30PM while I was in sweatpants watching Netflix. I wasn't expecting that.

So much anxiety!
1) When are the calls supposed to start?
2) Are all decisions communicated via phone calls?

1 PM EST means 11.30 PM India Time.
not sure they are going to call up someone that late.

9PM India Time means 10.30AM EST.
do not think they will start calling that early.

so... my hunch is no calls for international students.

Yup. My thoughts exactly. I guess international students might be informed via email.

I think they do call international applicants at a suitable time. I know my friends at other US Bschools that got calls around 10:00 AM India time. If I'm not wrong johnson also has an international admissions office based in London. So, the time difference might not be that big an issue.

At the end of my skype interview I was told that the international students are given a call on Skype and for Indians specifically that could be late in the night. Other wise there is obviously an email communication the next day. This was told to me from an add com from London office.
My guess is the international Skype calls are made from London and my suggestion is kindly be logged in and have the fingers crossed. All the best

I'm not sure if there will be. I think it'll be up to the moderators or Narenn but if there is I assume we'll use the regular gmatclub chatroom?

Anyways, I'd expect phone calls to go on for a while this afternoon (estimated around 160 calls to make) if they do start to call admits... :gl everyone! Keep us up to date on your status!

Let's pray for some admits!! :-D
