Calling all Harvard MBA Applicants: (2017 Intake) Class of 2019!

Peeps - a quick question - I have not yet sent my official score to the school, however, I have attached my unofficial score. Does that mean I would not be considered for round 2 because the school has not received my official score?
Please help. Thanks

Has anyone received interview invites yet?

I didn't send the scores either. But from what I understand they process your application with the unofficial scores first. You will need to eventually send the scores once you receive an acceptance. If anyone else thinks otherwise, please shout - thanks!

Apparently the invites will be send at noon (ET), so roughly ten hours to go

FML. This wait is killing me. I do however appreciate that HBS lets us know early on if we should keep our hopes up or move on.

Re: scores, you only need to send your official ones once you're chosen for an interview.

Is there no live chat?
What time are the interview invites expected to start coming in?

Thanks and good luck guys!!

Only difference is, just a handful of us will be cheering at the end.

According to their website: "When submitting your application, you may report the unofficial GMAT or GRE score given on the day of the test, or your official score if you have received it. Every applicant must request that Pearson (for the GMAT) or ETS (for the GRE) send an official score report directly to HBS."

I assumed this meant you must request to send the official score report to HBS because they specifically say "every applicant" not something like "every admitted applicant." I'm guessing they mention unofficial score for those who take the GMAT close to the deadline thus they will not receive their official score report with AWA. However, such a situation would not prevent someone from requesting official scores be sent to the school.

For your sake though, I hope my interpretation is incorrect.

Womp womp. Well, it's been fun fantasizing. Back to reality...

Hi guys,

Has anyone received an email?

There are a few reports in chat, and several on Clear Admit. Looks like the emails went out around 12:02.

Thanks a lot. Have not received anything yet. Most likely out.

Aaaaaand didn't get anything. I know that there's a second round but given that most of the invites went out today, Im going to take it as a ding.

Me too

For those that have received invites, congratulations and go celebrate before preparing! For those that have yet to receive invites, there's still another batch.

As you are preparing for your interview, I know that HBS has one of the most well-documented Interview processes and that you can find lots of information online, but I wanted to offer up any advice that I can with the interview process.

Feel free to post something and I'll try my best to get back to you. If you aren't comfortable posting, PM me, and if it's a general question, I'll post the Q&A (without your name) if it may be useful to others.
