Dinged... I had a good interview and very much surprised at the ding... Oh well...Kenan-Flagler here I come !

Recieved email saying i'm by on the waitlist Posted from my mobile device

R2 Waitlist, still on waitlist...

Finally heard back at 6:10pm CST on friday. Re-waitlisted... ugh.

I still haven't heard back, anyone else still waiting?

Anyone from R3 heard about $$$ yet today? I believe the admit email said that we would receive a notification by today / 4/16.

I would definitely give them a call if you're still waiting on Monday. The MBA admissions office is 512-471-5921.

I called, still on the waitlist. The woman I talked to said that if you're on the WL and don't hear anything that means you remain on the WL, though during the R2 decision week I received an e-mail stating such and asking me to confirm that I wished to remain on the WL.
