Thanks a lot, Victor.
Olin appears to send out interview invitations at different times for each candidate even if they apply at the same time.
Is the interview invitation by Olin sent in the order of strength evaluation of application package?

Hi Victorinox,

Thanks for offering your help. I hope your exams went well.

Can you share about the timelines that a R2 applicant expect an interview call?

Well, not really. Don't read too much into timing of interviews. In fact, many of the people who got later interviews got better scholarships..

They can come back to you anytime till they accept or reject you... not to worry.

An alumnus told me that the scholarship decision process at Olin is a little bit different from other schools. It seems Olin gives many more scholarships to admitted students in later rounds to attract them and fill up the class. Is this true?

I would have to disagree on that.. many of the students from first and second round get scholarships at Olin. one of my friends got an 80%+ scholarship in second round. Also, personally I found it has a lot to do with your GMAT score too. Secondly, if I were you, I wouldn't put my eggs in that basket. Later rounds are far more selective than earlier ones. Unless you are a gambler.... :twisted:
