Looks like the deadline is Feb 20. It shows up on the Prematric checklist (first thing under Quick Links on the homepage of the prematric site).

To those of you who have gotten in (and are 100% sure you're going to matriculate) please notify the schools you will be rejecting ASAP. Given that you got into HBS there is a strong likelihood that you will get into these other schools as well. By notifying the schools quickly you may be saving someone from the wait-list.

I can't find it now but saw it was February 20th. Their 'admit weekend' or whatever they called it is on 6th/7th Feb so you have to make a decision shortly after that.

Anyone else heading over to Boston for the February event? I'm planning on making the trip from London.

I received calls last evening from a second year student, my interviewer, and another ad-com member. All of them were super friendly; very nice calls. Have to give HBS props for reaching out, all of the people are making themselves available and are so supportive -- they already make you feel a welcome part of the community.

Timbob: I will be at the February admit weekend for sure.

Yeah, I think I'm gonna fly out for it. It seems like the events are a lot different from the interview day activities.

Plus there are no local events for me so I have to fly regardless.

In!

Email showed up a little late, but I logged on the system to check anyway.

I got calls from a first year student as well as my interviewer. What a great personal touch.

Planning on being at the event in early Feb. See you there!
