Yes. Once you're on the WL you can request an interview.

I didn't know that you could deduct tuition fees as a business expense. That's great to know. Should make the immense burden a little lighter.

Haas actually has a presentation they go through about it in orientation. I found the one from last year a few months ago.

In any case, it's legal. I deducted 100% of the cost of my MS back in the day.

Well, there used to be a PPT presentation on their website, but the FAQ is all I can find at the moment:

Just got the call. I'm in!!!

The person who had interviewed me called - congratulated me, confirmed my cohort and invited me to the Orientation.

They said the online status will be updated tomorrow. They'll be making calls all day.

Time for a victory dance :lol:

Good luck to the rest.

Congrats! Are you in the evening or the weekend cohort?

Also, for everyone else, this is pretty good news. If they're calling this early, there are a lot of calls to make...

Looks like we may end up in the same cohort. I'm not going to be at the admit get together in April, but I'm sure I'll run in to you at orientation in August.

Edit: Don't forget to join the Facebook page. There's a link to it on the new admit website. You'll get the login info with the admissions email.

Sure thing! Is there a lot of activity on the Facebook page? Judging by this forum, it must be off the hook on there.

It's pretty dead actually. People introduce themselves and there's been one meetup, but there's only 24 of us on there so far. I'd imagine it's going to get a lot more lively after today though.

I'm probably going to be in San Jose sometime in May. So, I was planning on seeing if we could get some of the south bay locals together for dinner around then.
