Submitted on Friday and Essay 2 got delivered today! In for R2, also received an email today with a password and link to check for application status!

Good Luck everyone!

Same here - submitted Friday and my Essay 2 got delivered Monday. Got the notification same-day.

Good luck to you, and everyone else as well! :)

Hi ad209,

Did you get a notification confirming receipt of Essay 2? I had a tracking through UPS and it says delivered on Tuesday but Stern has not notified me of delivery? So just checking.

rajiv1984 - I have a better answer for you than my last one. I called the admissions office today. They told me that you only need to be concerned if, on the Status Check website, it says they're missing Essay 2. Otherwise, you should assume it has been received.

Hope this helps! Good luck!

R1, I have my interview in a couple of weeks. Any insights you would be willing to share? Were the experiences from LY's forum pretty accurate?

Hi, I haven't read last year's forum yet but I would say that Stern does a great job on the interview. It was clear that they read my application in and out, so rather than having to explain things already on my app, they gave me the chance to elaborate and clarify. I would say the potential weaknesses in my application were the fact that I'm a career switcher and also that because I chose option A for essay 2, I didn't have a lot of personality in my essays. These were two things that they asked me more about so I was really happy I had a chance to discuss this with them. I think if you know yourself, and if you know why you want to go to Stern, you will be prepared. The process was exactly 30 minutes and very laid back, my interviewer was very nice and asked me about my stay in new york since I was out of town. hope this is helpful.

I interviewed on Tuesday (11/26), I'm anxiously waiting as well...I'm sure the break delayed things slightly. When did you interview?

No response...
Freaking ouuuuutttt

I haven't heard yet either, but the way I look at it is if they didn't like us then they would have rejected us already. The fact that we have not heard yet, while not ideal, still means that we are in the running.
Keep your chin up, according to last year's blog people were getting invitations to interview up until the final day of notifications

Email from Stern said that they will be adding new interview slots for January early next week. I think this means they still have invitations to send out in December.

Thank you ad209. I got the same answer when I called them. I think we are good!

Krad,
Can you share some of the questions you got during interview, if that's OK? My interview will be on Dec. 19, so I was just wondering what they might ask me about, even though I did find some potential questions online. Also, how did you dress - business formal or business casual? Not sure if they have a dress code specified anywhere on the website. What would you do differently if you had to prepare for that interview again?
Good luck with everything! Hope you get admitted!
