Calling all HBS Fall 2010 Candidates

Does Harvard have any Diversity Weekends or Workshops?

they have usually have 2, one in the fall around october, and one in the spring. i went to the fall one last year and it was a good way to see the school, faculty and students.

Not stated in story, but how many Japanese passport holders are enrolled in HBS?

Hello Everyone:

It’s Eileen Chang from the MBA Admissions Board at HBS with the May

update on our Admissions process.

At this point, we have received all applications that will be considered

for the Class of 2012. We have already begun actively reviewing our

waitlist candidates and have started making decisions on many of these

applications. We also began interviewing round 3 candidates this week,

so we are in the final stretch of finalizing the class.


We expect there to be a lot of movement on our waitlist these next two

weeks and anticipate making approximately 50 offers of admission between

now and the round 3 notification date of May 13. We know that many of

you are anxious for resolution on your application, and the majority of

you should expect to hear a decision on your application by May 13.


Heading into June, the waitlist will be significantly smaller. The

waitlist at that time will serve to hold a group of candidates who could

be available to matriculate in case last minute (early July)

cancellations occur.


It is critical to keep your contact information updated, especially

since many of you are traveling now and over the next few weeks. If

there is a change to your phone number, email address, or mailing

address, please email my colleague, Dana Scalisi….blah, blah blah

Sincerely,


Eileen Chang

Is the above post appropriate and/or relative to the "B-School Application" forum? I know Sandy is the HBS god and all but anyone else who repeatedly posted non-sequiturs like this would be banned.

Please, stop the insanity...and Sandy, save it for the BW forums.

Why so much waitlist activity? Do you think that HBS is managing their yield, or did they just have a lot of people choose to go to other schools?

what the heck does this have to do with HBS?

Interesting article, but if I was interested in studies regarding the correlation between power and lying, I'd seek it out elsewhere.

The HBS applicant thread has turned from something useful to applicants, to something useless.

He also sounds really humble, polished, and down to earth.

You too. "I signed my high school yearbook in 2002 (xxxx yyyy, Harvard MBA)."

You too. "I signed my high school yearbook in 2002 (xxxx yyyy, Harvard MBA)."

full quote, since you're clearly trying to take me out of context.

"I am speechless. Accepted to HBS. My dream school. I signed my high school yearbook in 2002 (xxxx yyyy, Harvard MBA). And now that dream is going to come true. I really have no words to describe my elation! Thanks to everyone here for their insight and helpful advice throughout this process. ..."
