Booth 2012 - Calling All Applicants

just got an invite

Congrats!

What are your stats and the time stamp?

Congratulations, great for you, squadush for me =(

To all my friends who are waiting::
Best of luck I know you need it and I can feel your pain. I have a hunch that there is still a large chunk of invites left. So please have faith.

All those of you invited.
Congrats! Hope that I get to see most of you at Harper Centre coming fall

I have a small query though:
First, any idea whether the alums are also sent a simultaneous mail about the name of the candidate that they have been matched up with?
Also, the e-mail says that one must get back to the adcom if the alum doesn't reply within 2 business days but it does not say anywhere that we must ask for an interview immediately, right? So can we send a mail to the alum in after about a week? More so because the mail cleary says that interviews to be completed only by 3rd Dec!

I am actually in the military and committed at present. Don't want to mail the interviewer and then tell him to postpone the interview, should he have an imdt date available.
Hopefully, I should be back home in a couple of days. Shall mail the alum imdt after that!

Hence the query. Any ideas?

You can see the stats to the left. time stamp was 1:15 pm EST. for those still waiting be strong. i had pretty much given up hope this morning. Wed will be the biggest wave

Just recieved an invite - A big relief. Time stamp 12:15 CST

tomorrow could actually be a really big wave. If Kurt is so busy that he can't approve the final ding on all the applications he just might have a breaking point where he says heck with it, we'll just interview all the files i didn't have time to read.

At this stage in the game, i'd rather be lucky than good

Save me, Kurt!!

You guys reckon we're done for the day?
Well at least tomorrow we'll have some decision.. one way or the other.

Might see more today. They had two releases Thursday, Friday, and Monday. Seems like only one so far today at 12:15. Anyone out there get one this morning?

Just got an invite. Time stamp 3:06 EST.

Indian/M/30/GMAT:700/GPA: 3.5/ 4 yrs WE as an Actuary

Guess no more Booth invites today?

Tomorrow is going to be a rough day. Im expecting to hear a ding from Harvard and now Booth (Given it looks like they are close to their 50% invite mark). I actually do not care about Harvard, but maybe, by some miracle, Kurt will overlook my GMAT scores and GPA tomorrow and will want to interview me....I can dream big for one more day

Good luck to all the remaining invite hopefuls!!!

Im going to happy hour!

Is there anyone whose status is unchanged since the day the application was submitted. I guess one gets a mail once the application is put under review. My status still says Awaiting GMAT score, however the score was sent long long time ago. I hope they don't dump me w/o even reading my app

Does anyone know when we need to schedule the interview? within a week after receiving the invitation? Thank you.

The invite just says that the last day to complete an interview is December 3rd. You should probably go ahead and schedule it now and avoid the potential delays with alumni scheduling (especially around Thanksgiving in the US).

And if you're interviewing on-campus, you should probably schedule it before the slots fill up and you have limited choices. When I went to schedule my interview, I think there were probably 100-125 on-campus slots available.

Same here.

"Given it looks like they are close to their 50% invite mark" ? Really?

Crap! ... I was hoping for a last day invite.
