I'm so worried now. Submitted midnight Oct 5 for ED, went under review on the 12th and heard nothing since....am I getting dinged soon? :shock:

I dont think you have any reason to worry at this point. You have only been under review for a little over a week, if you look at the information posted a few threads back there were people waiting 40-50-60 odd days to be invited to interview last year that ended up being accepted ED. The reality seems to be that it can be fairly random, especially if you are not one of the first people to submit (in July/August).

My UNI was available day before yesterday, I'm guessing they just processed a chunk of them. Also, does anyone know details on the event in December? Is this basically a meet and greet with other admits? I can't seem to find any info online.

Best of luck to those that are still waiting and congrats to those that got the good news recently.

Hi jt900.
I see that your work experience includes "Monetary policy". Do you work with Fed or any other central bank?
i am intrigued as I am a trader and I trade STIR futures

I'm at the Fed

Hi guys, Congrats on those who have been admitted and good luck with those who are still waiting.

I have been on Jterm's waitlist for over 40 days, heard nothing from CBS,

Does anyone know the chance of getting off the waitlist? how many candidates do they put on waitlist regarding Jterm?

Submitted on May 13th, interviewed on July 7th, was waitlisted beginning of September
more than 5 month waiting , this is killing me
Show more


I'm J-term applicant as well waiting to hear after interview, this is what I've heard, but take it with a grain of salt. It seems like they do take a significant number of Waitlisters, since a fair number from the previous threads were snatched off the waitlist, but to my knowledge the stats aren't disclosed. Unfortunately I think you're going to have to wait until they go through the schlubs like me who waited until the deadline to apply, and it seems like they still accept people for J-term until mid November. When I talked to admissions around a third of jterm applicants apply right around the deadline, so they're probably backlogged. Common sense dictates that they will wait to go through all of the apps before they go back to the waitlist, so I'm guessing you're probably going to have to wait until mid-November, and possibly early December to get a final decision. But that totally sucks to be held in Purgatory so long, I've been waiting for 2 1/2 days now and I'm already going insane!

Here's what it looks like for the set of complete datapoitns (31 or something, didn't count). ED Admits still. Very ltd data on JTerm. I would not worry if submitting on 10/5 and yet to hear!

Not sure how valid this data is -- they seem to have stepped up the timeline for a lot of folks. Look how many people got interviews w/in a week this year. Last year, only one person did.

For those of you who had interview invites already, does the online status change from 'under review' to sth else? Still waiting...it's been a week since it went 'under review'.

The status changes to "You have been invited to interview. You will be contacted within 24 hours." Something like that.

I'm really happy for NoggieViking and all the gmatclubbers who got in already. Even though we're actually competing with each other, feel like we're more like friends than competitors somehow. Anyway, good luck to all of us who are still in the painful waiting process.
