Is it possible to hear from them on April 9th and get in? Or by that point you're waitlisted at best?
There were R1 admits on day of Decision.

That's a load off my mind, every day I didn't get an admit I thought my chances were slipping away. Thanks!

I'm first hoping to become of those recipients to admitted student emails!

Question for all admitted students (and others who may know): Has McCombs set an "Admitted Students Weekend" timeline? Does anyone know if/when they plan to hold it?

I'm hoping for an admit AND that it doesn't conflict with another admit weekend!

Yep, here's the response I got from Admissions (sounds like April 24-25, so not actually a weekend...):

There is a weekend for admitted students called Preview Weekend. This occurs in the last weekend in April (Th – Fri). If admitted, at preview weekend you’ll get the opportunity to experience the culture and programs of McCombs, sample classes, learn about our curricular, extra-curricular, and co-curricular programs, and mix and mingle with current students and fellow prospective at various happy hours sponsored by the MBA program office and student-led organizations.

Awesome! Thanks lonestar! Coincidentally, I had tentative plans for the 26th/27th, so this could actually work out for me (of course, still working on the acceptance first LOL)!

Actually, I think it would be valuable to do this kind of event during the week (ie, Mon-Thurs). Typically, there are no classes on Fridays, and people may also head out of town, right? I would think Thursday events would allow prospective students to see how classes are taught.

FROM Mccombs(Texas Austin) Admissions Blog: Coffee Chats With Current MBAs
Evening MBAExecutive MBA, MBA at Houston, or MBA at Dallas/Fort Worth. On each page you’ll find a proposed address of a coffee chat and corresponding name. Each person on the list is a member of the McCombs Admissions Committee; a team of students designated to help provide applicants with information in order to help them make a decision about the Texas MBA. Click the name corresponding to the address you’d like to meet at, or near, and a new email message will open addressed to the MBA student you selected. If you don’t see an address that will work, but would still like to reach out to a current student, feel free to reach out to the program email box for your program of interest.

Good luck on your MBA journey!

It doesn't appear many have been admitted yet for this round, so don't fret too much.

Thanks. I'm just getting a bit antsy as McCombs is my last chance to avoid getting shutout this round.

Fingers crossed for you.
