I am a R2 applicant based in the bay area. I learned from this thread that Haas would email you, letting you know that your application is ready for review. I haven't receieved such an email from Haas yet. But I noticed my application status changed to "Application Under Review" back in December. Is it the same case for anybody? thanks...

Yes that is same as "your application is ready for review" status.

Anyone on the west coast hear anything yet?

I'm in!!!!! Mexico! Got the call about three hours ago! Posted from my mobile device

Congrats to everyone who has received calls! I am based out of Shanghai and am keeping my fingers crossed over the next two days for a call from Stephanie.

Anyone from the US? Have seen some internationals in but not a single domestic admit yet.

In past years they have called international admits first, so let's hope that holds this year. By the way, do you work for Boeing? I met another interviewee with a background similiar to yours.

Hey, is that an interview call with Stephanie? Don't international applicants have local interviews with alums.

Oh I mean a call about getting accepted. I interviewed with a Shanghai alum.

Hi londoncalling! Can you be a little more specific with what you meant by "some questions provided by the admissions team". What type of questions they were? Really deep about the program? Thank you very much!
