Ha, great stuff. When I got dinged from my first school, my friend sent me this to pep me up and give me a good laugh:

He went to U of I, so no offense to any Illini out there. Just a good reminder it doesn't matter where you go to school. If you have drive, you'll get to where you want to be. Good luck tomorrow everybody


lol, I'm an Illini and I found that funny. Good luck everyone!

julianlee congrats on the admit! Do you still see the decision box in my wharton or the apply yourself site? R2 aplicants are reporting that link missing. I wonder if all waitlisters still have it? I do.

Is it true they will be calling (or does the decision come via email)? 800 calls is a lot of calls to make...

I like how the WL letter isn't even dated, so if we are WL again, there is nothing for them to do.

Just got the call as well! 12pm EST!! Checked the website and the original decision is gone and no new link has replaced it. Here's hoping they didn't make a mistake!

My original decision is gone as well, but no call - thinking a ding is on its way. Looks like I'm headed to Booth! :)

Zorro / Kumavi Congrats!

Did you guys do anything since the waitlist decisions (follow-up letters, extra letters of support?). And congrats again!

Thank you!! Still shaking from the call.

Yes, I got two additional letters/phone calls of support from (somewhat distant) contacts who were connected to the school. They mentioned that Wharton was my first choice, which may have been particularly relevant because I have a strong family connection to another top school.

Stats:
Strengths - 770 GMAT, 3.85 u/g GPA (liberal arts major), thought Wharton essays were my best
Weaknesses - 6 month gap in employment, messed up one interview question, took GMAT 3 times

Just to confirm. Everyone has seen their decision letter disappear on the online application page?
