R2/Received invitation to interview/SF

All - just a status update - I received an invitation to interview and scheduled mine for next week. Currently, three slots are remaining, but have hope! When I went to schedule mine, there were fewer than ten left. Fingers crossed for the fellow R2 applicants.

Just throwing a few questions out there:

1) What % of interviewees ultimately receive an offer for admission?
2) To those interviewing at satellite locations - did you interviewer seem tired/more weary towards the end of the day? I'm not sure if it's better to leave the last impression or speak to the interviewer when he/she has already had a full day.


Hello there, congrats! Mind sharing your profile?

Re: Sloan 2012 - Calling MBA All Applicants [#permalink]
I have never contacted the adcom during the admissions process. I have only sent a thank you letter to my interviewer. But I do not think it will harm you, unless you send them many questions.

Agreed - similar to miguelmick, my only communications was a thank you email to my interviewer. If you do have thoughtful questions (not just questions to ask questions), then I'm sure they would appreciate that.

On a different note, anyone receive scholarship info? Awards were suppose to go out this week but it's been silence on all fronts. Perhaps people are just humble or shy? :)

I haven't seen much invites at all. No big invite waves like other schools. What is Sloan planning to fill up their classes with ? :)
I won't be surprised if MIT has developed some new technology to let extraterrestria apply to the program and all the invites are being sent to them 8-) Damn you ETs :-D

I just got an email labeled "MIT Sloan Financial Aid Information" with standard info about FAFSA and applying for loans. More importantly, it says "Please note that Dean’s and Forte fellowships offered through MIT Sloan have already been awarded."

Well, that's that! Congrats to all who received something!!! I'm just thrilled to be a part of the future 2014 class - loans and all! :)

I'm sure there's scholarships for R2. It took them a little more than a month to award $$ for R1 kids so probably expect a similar timeline for R2?

Re: Sloan 2012 - Calling MBA All Applicants [#permalink]
Sloan says on its website that "some of the applicants will receieve decision letter earlier if not getting interview".

So anyone anywhere hsa got the ding already for R2?

Seems Sloan is no exception to only announce outcome on decision day.......

Then why bother putting that statement on the website? lousy.....
