I got the interview email with login info (6:39pm EST), but when I log in, it shows i'm not invited to interview. I sent an email to the support people, but is anyone else getting this result? I assume they maybe haven't loaded my info yet.

May I try with my login? Because I am having some problems with my email today and I haven't get any email during all day.

If you have a scheduletoday login, that's what i'm talking about. I did apply consortium, so my situation might be a bit different. For instance, I don't have a direct UMich login to their application.

Man I don't get it, 710 GMAT, 3.5 GPA, had a consultant help with my application and I can't even get an interview at Ross. Brutal.

Anyone from India, who's scheduled the interview and agreed for the team activity on 7th Feb? If yes, could you please post some details like what are the timings on 7th and where is it in Delhi?

I plan to schedule my interview after a few days but want to book tickets for the event ASAP.

Also, only Skype option for India candidates?

Has anybody from India scheduled their interviews? I'd like to participate in the team activity which Soojin mentioned will take place, but the scheduler has no mention of the dates when it's going to be conducted. Are the dates for the interview and the activity supposed to be different or will they be conducted on the same day in Delhi?

Don't lose hope man. Where else have you applied? There may have been a thing or two that ticked the adcom off (recs, workexp maybe?). The Ross essays were very straightforward.

Applied to Kellogg in R1, didn't make the cut.
Applied to UCLA as well, but UCLA is having a pretty intense year. My essays were great I thought... maybe it is my recs?
Last year in R3 I applied to like 4 top schools (Harvard, Kellogg, Stern) - that was a big mistake, was insanely rushed and was in R3 = not gonna happen.

I don't know man, frustrating stuff.

I feel you buddy

I thought my essays were solid, only had positive feedback from everyone who read them. Maybe not visiting the school and being on the lighter side in terms of work experience (3 years) killed my chances. Doesn't help that they had a 30% increase in applications.
