From all the responses, this is how I interpret things:

Strong GMAT, avg - strong GPA = interview invite within 2 weeks
End up getting dinged = notification within a month

It seems like ED folks will know one way or another by end of Oct... ya ya ya?

i got my interview invite after 3 weeks. admissions, for a while at least, were waiting 3 weeks. so if it has been that long, then i wouldn't fret.

Seconded - I got mine after 3 weeks as well

That's maybe because you guys applied early... seems they did expedite the process a bit post mid sep - all the candidates who reported timelines seem get interview invite between 14-16 days...

This is a similar question for anyone who has interviewed - do they invite you to interview via phone or e-mail?

Congrats to everyone who has been accepted!

For those of you that received offers -- did anyone get any scholarship dollars? is that communicated during acceptance call?

Last year was a mix. A few people they really liked got Fellowship money at their acceptance but most came later. I think it was Feb-Mar timeframe that the majority of decisions are made and that includes ED and RD applicants. So don't be discouraged if you didn't get anything yet. I got my acceptance call in late Oct and didn't find out I got scholarship money until mid-February, right before the admitted students event.

They invite you to interview by email :)

Thank you! That's kind of a stupid question, but I've been checking my inbox like a crazy person. Just wanted to make sure it's via email. :-D

Did anyone who applied on 10/2 get an invite? if yes, what time did you submit your application and when did you get the email?

Nope, I applied on 10/2 but am still waiting here...it appears that some people have received invites. Last year many invites went out in waves on two days 10/19 and 10/23, think dings went out on 10/24? I am hoping that is the case and we hear tomorrow or Monday!!

Good luck!

mappleby, you mind if i ask you how much you got and how much people typically get from CBS? were you also an ED applicant?

Can someone explain to me how the timeline works for RD during this crossover/overlap period of the adcom reviewing ED apps and RD apps coming in (oct/nov RD submits).

I thought I understood, but now I feel like I am just confused about the process.

They're not reviewing RD apps until all ED apps are finished
