Anybody still have their status reflecting as:

Application Completion Status: Application submitted online. ?

Also - I submitted by application at around 11:45 PM on the 15th. Hope that is good enough for Round 1!

Hello spiderguy252,

A lot of people are to get the confirmation mail from ISB.
and mein too shows the same.

I got the application confirmation on the very next day (16th Sep.), I had submitted my application on 15th Sep at 4 PM. Interview calls are expected from 27th of September. You will get a call 7 days before your scheduled interview date. Good luck! and hopefully see you on the other side :grin:

We think the calls will start rolling out come Monday. Also, more likely it will start from Delhi because YLP calls have already started rolling out and interviewers won't be traveling to a location double.

Best of luck to everyone preparing for their interviews!

+1 to MBASage, interviews are likely to start from Oct 1, and hence the invites might start rolling out from Sep 23.
Ofcourse, there is no official announcement as such, these are speculations.

Evaluation: Online-Evaluation received by ISB
But below, it says
Application Completion status: Evaluation (...awaited....)
I am confused. plz help. I tried calling ISB, but nobody picked up phone.

Hi antrixmic,

Thats some trouble to run into at this stage. Today is a weekend, perhaps this is why there's no one to answer your call.

I would advise you to immediately take a screenshot from your ISB portal.
Attach the screenshot to the mail explaining your confusion. Parallely you might also want to inquire from your evaluator as to when he did submit the form.

At times there are glitches in the system which lead to such incidents. There was one such technical glitch in my application form as well !
That being said, ISB is very helpful in such cases and helps applicants in every way possible.
I have personally seen two cases where the applicant has entered incorrect details in the form and submitted, when they reached out to ISB, ISB corrected the information in the form.

Stay positive and hope for the best ! :) :)

My evaluator had submitted the evaluation on 14th Sept. After today's email from ISB to send it again asap, he sent it again today. I wonder why they are unable to receive it even after my evaluator has sent it twice. I have already taken a screenshot and sent a mail to the admissions office with the attached screenshot. I will call them again on Monday. I hope my application is not rejected due to some technical glitch.

I am a first time applicant so I can not confirm that but as far as I can recall the only difference between applicants and fresh ones was 1 extra essay.
Perhaps other people on this forum can confirm.

As an update - I got my 'Application has been Completed' notification mail from ISB a couple of hours ago.

Hope it leads to an interview call - will keep this thread posted either way.

We need to submit only one LOR irrespective if you are a first time applicant or a re-applicant

Coming to your problem, did you try calling ISB on the landline? Do shoot an email ASAP as well explaining them about the problem
