Don’t give up! Still 2 weeks left where they could interview more applicants. I hear they can go as late as March 14th - a week before deadlines.

I applied R2, and I got the second email (Your Berkeley Haas Application Status) last week but no interview invite. Someone on reddit told me that this means that they’ve made a decision on your application so if there’s no invite, then its either a ding/waitlist. But someone else mentioned they got their interview invite a few weeks after receiving that email. I guess there’s no way of knowing, it could mean anything. :.



That’s because you logged into the application portal after a while to check your application. I just logged into the portal and they sent me the mail immediately

Mine is still received.
I did get an under review mail couple of weeks back.
Should it be under review? Should I mail the adcom regarding this?

Same for me. And I emailed the adcom- They had the standard response that interviews will go out until decision date.

When I log in and click it, it doesn’t open my profile. It opens to a page that says “We’re so excited to welcome you into the Berkeley Haas family” with a ton of info like submitting my deposit, getting my email address, Re Vera Verification, etc.

­LOL right, good idea!

If everyone can access the link, though, then not sure it has any meaning unfortunately. Just think it’s a bit strange you have to login to view the page.

Anyway, was just something I found when I was trying to see if there were any admissions events coming up, and figured I’d post to see if others have any thoughts on it/ if people can access it.

Is this message showing for everyone who applied to R2? Just to know my situation,
