This is what I got from Kellogg:

Thank you for contacting the Kellogg School of Management. We are sorry to hear you had an issue submitting your application. We ask that you to try to re-submit your Round 2 application. Due to extreme weather conditions the Office of Admission will remain closed until the morning of January 8, 2014. Given these unforeseen circumstances, we will be extending the Round II application deadline until Thursday, January 9, 2014 at 5:00 PM CST.



If you continue to experience technical issues with your application submission, please e-mail [email protected]. If an unresolved technical issue is identified as preventing the completion of your application by the deadline, this will not impact the evaluation of your candidacy. Thank you for your patience and we look forward to reviewing your application.



Sincerely,

Kellogg Admissions

So its confirmed Round II deadline is 9th Jan 2014 5pm CST, hope everybody relieved :)

Guys, is it normal that after submitting the application I received an application checklist, but cannot see essays among files that Admissions received?
I am worrying...

Guys, I also opened my application :) But I have another question. I cannot see in my "Application proof" my essays, test scores, diplomas, etc. Do you experience the same issue?

If you read the top of the application preview, it says:
Quote:
Please not the following important information as you review your application: Sections containing a large amount of narrative text may appear to be truncated in this proof:

This is a result of space limitations on this document. No text has been truncated within your application. The complete narrative text you have entered will be submitted with your application for review.

This proof is for the review of your application only. Uploaded documents such as essays, resume and transcripts are not included wtih this proof.

I'm applying to Kellogg R2 and based in NYC. I would prefer an off-campus interview but I'm realistically going to be submitting right on their Jan 7 deadline. Anyone have any tips - do I request the off-campus or just go on-campus at this point? Thanks!

Have the same exact question. Any one? Any one that applied round 1 and was in a similar situation

Hello guys,

do you know if requiring off-campus interview so late (Im from Latin America) could probably result in the interview being waived?

Thanks

I'd call and ask. I was in SoCal and submitted the week before the R1 deadline and it was fine. Depending on the area though.

Show more

I had problems with the test video and the actual videos.

Problems were the sound getting cut off for the first few and last few seconds. I just adjusted by leaving out a few seconds at the beginning and the end.

And yes, the video is crappy. Choppy would be overrating it. It seems more like a slideshow in my third attempt (this was the best). No video in fist attempt and a very small improvement in the second video.

I just let the third one stay as it is cause the audio was OK and my face was visible throughout the video :lol:

I tested all the 3 "extensively" for the test video. I felt that the response was the same on all 3. I finally used chrome as it is the default browser that I use.

Just cross your fingers and go ahead with whichever browser you like best.... If your voice comes out fine on any of the attempts with even a few good frames in the video, keep it (just my two cents :)

I had the same problem, try to use the Internet Explorer to record your video.

I think it depends on the availability of the alums more than the date of submission. If there aren't many alums available then potentially yes. I think even if you submit early and there are no alums available then it will still be waived.

FROM Kellogg MBA Blog: Exchange Experience at Kellogg: Student Clubs

The winning team of the Holi Food fight organized by IBC and Kellogg Cares

Integrating exchange students into a b-school’s culture and student life is tough given the intensive nature of the MBA. Getting exchangers involved is even tougher in programs with bigger class sizes as there are fewer common classes with other students. However, as I sit down to reflect to write this blog on my experience at Kellogg, I realize that I have become completely immersed in the culture of the school. And Kellogg student clubs and events have played a major role in helping me achieve this level of immersion.

On an exchange, one is away from one’s normal circle of friends and family. This compounds the cultural shock of landing in a new country with different customs and culture. So getting the right friends quickly is important to deal with such situations. I was lucky enough to find student clubs here that were of interest and through these was able to meet nice people and form friendships that will last beyond my three months here.

Some of the clubs that I have been part of include:

India Business Club — The two events that I have been to brought out all kinds of emotions in me. The first one was a Bollywood movie, a romantic comedy Barfi. With some good food and great company, this was a perfect Friday night. The next event, organized by IBC in association with Kellogg Cares, was the Holi Food fight. As someone who hasn’t played Holi for years, this one brought back memories of my childhood. For those two hours, I was not an exchanger but a Bulldog team member (Bullfrog + Big dog).

The Francophone Connection - A French crêpe party that was organized side-by-side with the Super Bowl helped me get in touch with French-speaking students leading to philosophical discussions on the differences between American and French cultures and lifestyles.

Personal Sustainability Club – With the free yoga lessons on Tuesdays and an active Facebook group, this one helped me unwind physically and mentally.

Soccer Club - Soccer practice on Mondays and Wednesdays helped me stay in shape.

My life here at Kellogg has been richer thanks to these clubs and their members. And yes, thanks to the other clubs that organize TGIF, especially Kellogg Marketing Club for the T-shirt and Women’s Business Association for the chocolate fondue!

Sriram Raghavan (@sriram_raghavan) is an exchange student from ESSEC Business School ’13.
