Stanford GSB 2013 - Calling all Applicants

I am an international, Australasia

Hi guys, applying round two here. Happy to hear about all the interview invites. Good luck in round 2 y'all!

Received the interview invitation just a while ago! Very excited about it. It basically contained the details to arrange an interview with an alum. I am an international applicant (South america) so I believe they will be sending the invitations as soon as they have clear logistics with the interviewers. Good luck to all of you who are still waiting!

Thanks for sharing. Good luck with your interview!
Has anyone in California received interview invitations?

Where are you from in South America?

Those that have applied can you share your background and if you got interviews or not. You can PM me if you dont want to put details on here. As want to see which type of applicants have been rejected/accepted and why. Especially from applicants on the older side as am in my thirties so would like to hear from such applicants and what decisions you received

The vast majority of people still do not know if they received interviews or not. The historical forums for Stanford show that interviews trickle in all the way through November. As a general statement, everyone needs to take a deep breathe and relax a bit. Your entire life's outcome, regardless of what you may be led to believe, will not be dictated by acceptance or rejection at Stanford or HBS. The process is now out of your control. If you get an interview, make the most of it, and if you don't, pick yourself up and either kick butt at another school, strengthen your application for another round/year/school, or find a way to reach your goals without B school.

Well said. It's barely been a few weeks!

Congrats on the invite!

It's pretty uncomfortable that the status didn't change. I am wondering how it works - both HBS & Stanford use ApplyYourself yet HBS' statuses do change.

Others who got an invite, has the status changed on your ApplyYourself page?

No, it didnt...

Just to clarify - does it say "Submitted" or "Under Review"?

Actually, HBS's statuses don't change. Mine still says submitted, and I've been invited to interview. In fact, right under where it says "Submitted" it says "Your application is under review. MBA Admissions will contact you if we need further information. Please note that this field will not change again until the notification date."

So at least we can all cross "obsessively log on to applyyourself" off of our list of things to do!

I've just received the invitation!

FYI, I'm international, Asian applicant.

Anyone from India has received an invite yet?

You are right. What I meant is that on the HBS' ApplyYourself there is at least an indication of the application being reviewed. I am wondering whether Stanford provides the same level of visibility.

Nope. This is all it says
