I would wait until the decision date for the results.

On a side note, are you guys still receiving promotional emails from Simon? I am, such as Simon is one of the top schools for Women MBAs etc. Don't know if I should read anything into that. Oh well, we'll know on March 19th I guess!

Anyone who submitted application in 15th Feb deadline and got an interview invite?
I have not heard anything from them till now, and the final decision date is 30th March, so should assume that I am not shortlisted?

Hi everyone!
I'm looking for some advice!
I recently got into the Indian School of Business and have been given a deadline of ten days (March 15th) to pay a basic fee (USD 4000).
For me its either going to be ISB or Simon. Given the fact that we can expect a notification from Simon by March 20th only, is it ok for me to write to them and ask them about my application? Even though I would prefer Simon, I cant let go of the ISB Opportunity.

Should I submit my application at this point of time or wait until the March Deadline?


Quick turn around time for Simon. Done my interview, a blind one, tonight.

Overall, had a great experience with the interviewer.


I am in. Just heard via email :)

Kudos
Just got an email from the Simon AdCom - asking me if I wanted an update on the decision (either through Skype or phone call). This has me bewildered! Anyone knows what this means? I wish they would have sent me a straight-forward message saying whether I am Accepted or Denied. But what does it mean when they say "let us know whether you are interested in receiving an update."? Any thoughts on this? Anyone else int he same boat?

I got the same email and I told them I have decided to pursue my MBA at a different institution. We exchanged a few emails where he thanked me for being upfront about it and he told me I had been accepted but now they'll be pursuing other candidates. I liked this approach of asking students if they are still interested especially at this juncture because most of the interested folks are in a situation where they have some offers by this time. There's no point accepting a candidate who is not going to join the program so this is a good strategy.
