Calling all TUCK 2008 applicants

somebody from b/week got invited for an interview..
that's.... FAST...
really fast....

omg

Tuck invites? I thought it was applicant initiated.

FWIW, I just went to the Top MBA Tour in Frankfurt and talked at length with Amy Mitson, Tuck's Associate Director of Admissions.

I'm impressed. Very. Amy was exceptionally personable without any of the attitude that reps from certain other schools have. She was actually fun to talk to which allowed me to let down my guard and talk about some of the more personal aspects of who I am and what I want to do - stuff that you usually don't get to at an MBA fair. Obviously she told me all about Tuck that can be conveyed at an MBA fair and I'm most impressed with what I heard.

I hadn't planned on applying but now I'm not so sure... I'm at least going to learn more.

That's for those who could not/did not have a self-initiated interview on campus. Internationals mostly.

Boston, oh and the Sox are destroying the Tribe tonight

The game is being shown in B'lore?

MLB TV...not the greatest but it's better than nothing

On BW one guy have got his invite this week. People there say that Tuck usually sends out interview invites within 15 days from submission.

Anyone been through the interview process? I'm just getting into my Tuck app in earnest, but I have my interview in a week.

I spent a hour at a Tuck event talking Sox with the Dean, I think everyone else was getting annoyed because they wanted face time and all he wanted to do was quiz my Sox knowledge. I want to finish my MIT essays so I can then finish my Tuck essays.

Well, looks like Tuck is a done deal for you now

hmm, looks like for it's rather important to become a sports fan to apply...

Hmm.

Tuck just coordinated my transcripts, etc all together...

so hopefully i'll hear something from them.

regarding interview invites... there's no specific time frame when they give out interview invites. could be from October 11 until December 13...

but you've got to love their ad coms and all.. so helpful..

Did any change of status happen for you?

No. it just says Submitted.....



that's all... dear application, please quickly go under review ! then invited for interview! then ADMITTED!

Folks,

Should I sport a suit n tie for the self-initiated interview or is a blazer and button up good enough?

Any tips?

I am wearing a suit for mine but I am not going to do a class visit that day. I dont think I would want to be in a suit all day for a class, lunch, tour and interview. I signed up for a visit in a week or so without an interview and then will be going after R1 for an interview. I am going to talk to them on my visit about my interview, I dont think they will mind that I dont want to do a class visit that day too.
