I am seeing messages about application status from members here. I am assuming an interview is pretty much required prior to admission. Have you been interviewed by adcom already ?

Well, it looks like they've at least gone through my application. If I do get admitted, I'm going to have to take the statistics course:

Prerequisite Courses:
College-level Mathematics: Complete
Statistics: Incomplete


Anyone else reviewed so far? I am showing a blank (and trying not to read too much into it)


Don't read anything into it. They'll complete the analysis for all submitted apps before the notification date. The analysis has nothing to do with whether you are admitted.

To answer a question posted above, yes, all admitted students are interviewed by an adcom prior to admission.

To answer another question, yes, all admitted students will receive a welcome call. Note, there were a couple of students who didn't receive a call that were admitted, however, that was only because of a mixup. And no, they won't call if you're not admitted.

Was anyone invited for an interview in the last few weeks or did anyone interview this week ?

A couple of weeks left for the outcome on R1 applications. I hope they continue to call applicants for interviews and not waitlist them without one. :-)

Looks like my "Statistics Course" requirement column is not updated yet. However, it's updated for most of them here on this forum. Initially, I thought this was not a big deal. But, come to think of it, if the AdCom has already decided that one is NOT going to make it to the class, why would they bother updating that section? :shock: It doesn't make any sense to me. Now, I am trying to read between the lines here and assuming that if the AdCom updates that section, then that person is IN. :) This could be just my anxiety playing a prank on me - 2 weeks before the deadline. :)

Step back for a second and take a breath. All it means is that they haven't gotten around to reviewing your file yet. There are still a couple weeks until the deadline and I'm sure they're working through everything as fast as they can, but there are a lot of applications. I interviewed a couple weeks before you. So, chances are your file is just further down in the stack.

I am also getting a little nervous as I did not receive an invitation for an interview yet :?

Well, I did interview but not nearly as well as I had hoped, and I'm seeing blanks in my statistics requirement section too.

Two weeks seems awfully long especially when you're having sleepless nights :?

Not much else you can do at the moment other than wait. Assuming you're done with all your applications, take the free time to do something fun. Once school starts, there isn't going to be much free time.

File is under review - Pre-Reqs are showing blank. Waiting for the interview call. Two weeks to R1 deadline. Jeez !! This is getting interesting. :-)

Just curious: If you don't mind me asking, what's your profile (GMAT, industry, etc)?

Looks like you have a pretty good profile. I wonder if they really read an application before sending out an interview invite. I was of the impression that they just screen based on stats like GMAT, gpa, WE etc. to make that decision.

Did any of the R2 candidates notice any updates on their application or heard from the AdCom?

I am curious how many days it will take before we notice any updates on the R2 applications. I submitted my application for R2 last week and my file is in "received" mode as of today.

Haas has a history of putting R1 and R2 applicants in wait list mode and call many of them for interview during R3 after comparing all the candidates. I wouldn't be surprised if even after a month I don't hear anything from Haas.

So I am relaxed! :) - just trying to get a overall pulse and get the other R2 candidates respond.

That is good info. You actually hit the anxiety button down even for the R1's i guess. :-)
