hi everybody,
mine status says the same - has deleted mention about timings. wierd !!! just to add few more points to my blood pressure. on the Bweek forum, the guy mentions no status at all - it just mentions that
""Thank you for your interest in the Kellogg School of Management.

The system is unable to determine your current status, please contact the admissions office at 847-491-3308 or mbaadmissions@kellogg.northwestern.edu for more information.""
very strange! River r u there????? :scared


that was a ding last year

Terp, Kellogg interviews many. However for the internationals, who could not make trip to the campus, i/vs are by invitations only. so could it mean that "no status" people's cases have been looked into and probably i/v is not due. for the rest the website message has been updated so as to take away a little load? in that case the minor change in the message means nothing at least as of now. but "no status" could mean ding?

oops , i am not changing the post, but while i was trying to post, i read other post made by bearsterner, I feel sorry and best luck with rest of your applications. but, just to freak out everyone, what was your status earlier on the kellogg website did it mention no status or modifies one like rest of us?

Ouch, sorry to hear that.

It appears that Kellogg is now offering feedback according to the email, which is a new thing. Waitlisters were given limited feedback in the past.

This year truly sucked for me. First I lost my job and now my first rejection.

I guess I wasn't ready as kellogg material. Perhaps I should start my R2 applications.

Hang your head high - it is going to be a tough year for anyone to get in. I see your list of - NYU, Columbia, Booth, Cornell, Yale - just make sure you do your best with these apps/interviews, and I am sure you will be good to go.

My website says:

Sorry to hear that, BearStearner.

Is anyone else here an MMM applicant. Do these apps usually get reviewed in a different manner/timeframe?

I am, Soni. I believe there are no differences whatsoever about the way our applications are reviewed.

Good luck on the rest of your apps

p.s. ninkorn, does this mean that I'm 3 business days better looking than you? perhaps this is the secret code that nobody has been able to crack.


No, you're just a cheaper date.

They spent the last 3 days working overtime to afford ninkorn.

Think of how much more it costs to take the rest of us out.... :lol:


:-D LOL
Wow, so much activity in only half a day. I wish all of you guys luck! Good news is bound to come VERY SOON!!

BearSterner - sorry about the ding and good luck for the rest of your apps.

I still haven't got a telephonic interview call. Im and international candidate. One of my friends received it as late as last week. So I am still hopeful that they may send an invite anytime.. there is still a month to go for the final decisions.

May be I'm just being too positive about the whole thing...

Sorry to hear that Bearstearner. Keep your head up, and keep trying. I strongly believe that keeping an attitude of resilience and flexibility makes the difference in tough times. Count on yourself to get on the path you want.

I have this same BW change to my status, instead of the deleted stuff about timing.

Guess it might be time to gear up for R2... crap.
