No idea, would love to know as well. When did people typically start hearing in years past?

Looking at threads from previous years, a few admits went out in mid-January. Anyone heard anything yet?

Got a response to my "Remain on Waitlist" email asking to have a phone conversation to discuss my application and the waitlist process.

Good sign or just standard protocol?

I had that phone conversation too. I met a couple other waitlisters at CBS and they had the call too. I think it's a standard process.

Did you anything out of it or was it pretty boilerplate?

This call is for AdCom to get to know you a little more. Typical questions such as why MBA, why now. So I just reiterated what I wrote in my essays.

Got the "update to your application" email, logged in to find I had been put on the waitlist. Going to become a fire breathing dragon and crush whatever feedback I can get from the adcom.

Has anyone had any updates or made it off the waitlist, either accepted or dinged?

Columbia wait-list: Got the ding update today. A little depressing, but given the amount of time that had passed I sort of saw it coming. Will be applying to January.
