Were you waitlisted with or without an interview? My waitlist letter says that they need to assess my candidacy further through an interview even though I already had an interview.

Same for me. I guess that means we were not up to the mark in the interview? Looks more like a ding than a waitlist to me.

Waitlisted with an interview, but ya they want me to interview again. I would like to think that this isn't a ding.

howdytex2 , what does the Forte Fellowship cover? And did you mention somewhere in your application that you'd be interested in this fellowship?

It is a scholarship for women in business. Includes some nice perks like Fuqua pays for me to go to a pre-MBA conference, plus some exclusive networking events. Here is some more information https://www.fortefoundation.org/site/PageServer?pagename=mba_fellows

I did not mention it in my app. However, I did mention I would want to be involved in their women in business club and I also was a part of the Forté MBA Launch Program last year, which most likely helped. Most of my extracurriculars were geared toward the topic as well.

I am aware of the Fellowship. I want it for myself too. But from what I understand, the scholarship amount that goes with this fellowship differs from school to school. That is what I was asking about.

I got a decent merit scholarship too. I wonder if there is a way to apply for the other scholarships such as forte on top of the merit.

Is there a Facebook group to connect with others admitted in Early Action? Or should we just start one?

Congratulations to all those who got EA admits!

I got waitlisted without an interview in Early Action. In my decision page, the adcom said that they couldn't take a decision without an interview.
I'm guessing this means that they will interview me along with R1 applicants.

Anyone else in the same boat?

I think everyone who got waitlisted after interview has received the same letter.

Me too! I don't know when they will send out the next interview invite. I hope they send it out ASAP.
