Hi all, Please post any questions, thoughts or suggestions regarding the Kellogg 2012 waitlist here. Using this topic will ensure that any post pertinent to the waitlist process will not get lost amidst all the other Kellogg related discussions on the main thread. Having already been on the waitlist last year, I know how excruciating the wait can get. Hopefully we can support & help each other out during this course! Here's hoping that all of us on this waitlist get admitted!! Cheers!

You've waited for one month. We are only one week from maybe knowing our destiny on Kellogg. Just think that if they didn't think you were strong enough, they would have dinged you already!

March 28th can not come soon enough... Sending positive energy that this is the first year ever that Kellogg accepts all the students from their waitlist!!!! Good luck to all of us.

Do you believe they will let us know before the 28th, since the Round 2 deadline is on the 26th?

well hopefully we will hear soon. looks like they started making round 2 calls yesterday. fingers crossed. good luck everyone.

No reason not to think so..It wouldn't make sense to me to start informing waitlisters only after all R2 applicants have been informed..All decisions would anyway have been made by now except for R2 applicants who could be moved to the waitlist.. That's just me though..no idea what the Kellogg ad-com has in mind!

My take is that they are going to grant admit from WL based on the yield of R1/R2. So March 6 is a deposit day, lots of R1 admits would decline; and in this week, some of the R2 admits will also decline Kellogg, WL is to fill the hols left by those admits. We'll see in less than a week. Hang in there, fellas!

Well, it looks like I will be joining you all on the Kellogg waitlist. They say nothing worthwhile is easy... It looks like for Round 2 folks the waitlist notification dates are April 16 and May 9.

Also joining R2 WL. Good luck everyone!

Also joining R2 waitlist, for those of you who are currently on the wait list, would you consider re-taking GMAT if your quant score was low (66%)? I wanted to ask the WL officer, but it says not to contact them until the week of April 3, which would def be too late to hit the April 16th decision. What do you all think?

You should definitely wait until April 3rd. After you've talked with your wait-list manager, there's two options: He/She will ask for some update or to clarify something regarding your application (or maybe ask you to re-take your GMAT) or will tell you that there's nothing you can do, it is just a matter to see if there's a spot left. My quantitative was the same as yours, and the GMAT score as well and they did not asked me to retake it. On the other hand, I am still on the waitlist, so who knows?
