I submitted on 10/30 and received an interview invite on 11/1. I didn't expect that quick of a turn around. I didn't even see the email untill the next day because i wasn't expecting to hear anything until after the Round 1 deadline. Hopefully thats good, but who knows.

Please add your names to the Roll call list. I have just created an account for the Rice application. 4 essays to work on and i am yet to start :(
Rice has now moved up within the rankings quite well. Has anyone attended information sessions, visited college? If so, please share your experiences about the school.
I am from India and completed my education in english medium. Do i need to give TOEFL?

Thanks,
LC

You don't have to take toefl if medium of instruction in your undergraduate university was only english. However, I would recommend you to go through the admissions page in business.rice.edu

I submitted my application on Nov 7th. The status changed to "under review" on Nov 10th. I am so hoping that I get through Jones. It's my first choice.
Wondering how long would it take to get any response about the application?

I got an e-mail inviting me to interview. There was no change in my status through the application page. It was time stamped at 12:13 CST. I have already visited and met with an adcom member last month, but not for an official interview since I hadn't submitted at the time. I'll being doing a phone/skype interview. Best of luck!

Hi All, I am from India. GPA 3.07. GMAT 690. Work Ex 2 yrs. With good leadership roles in the community. I applied to Rice in the first round and have got interview invitation today. Lemme know if I can help in any way.

Btw, what option would you recommend for interview: phone or Skype? And does getting an interview invite from Rice really mean something or they usually do send an invite to most of the applicants?
