Nice to see that we have a good mix of presentations and essays. Ironically I'm consulting and use ppt daily but did the essay. It felt less ambiguous and let me use frameworks from my other apps.

Also wanted to toss in my two cents on withdrawing after an acceptance, what if another school offers scholarship money? Just because someone plans on going to school A doesn't mean they wouldn't go to school B with money. We all have to see how all of our apps do then make the best decisions for ourselves. This process is about changing our lives, not worrying about a hypothetical bubble person. If the school thinks they deserve an interview/they will get one.
I may be mistaken, but I think part of the kerfuffle is that the acceptance is for Columbia's ED round, which is technically binding

Ya that's what my understanding is about Columbia ED

Best of luck ppl!! I don't know what made me think that it has to be a ppt although I could've said much more with an essay!

Anyway, the wait game is still on for me! May god bless us all!

Calm down. I have been receiving e-mails from MIT Sloan each day during the last year. They mistakenly unsubmitted my old paid application and ignore my pleading for mercy, so my morning starts with the message "Important message from MIT".

What do you mean by "mistakenly unsubmitted" your application? What happened?

For some reasons it only shows once you had your interview, not when you received it.

Hi everyone. Best of luck to all those waiting for their invite invitations! :)

Need your two cents on something. They're having a hard time matching me to an alumni interviewer in my home country, so they're giving me a choice - either to fly to Singapore (3:30 flight) and interview with an alumni, or have a phone interview with a 'member of the admissions staff'. Which choice do you guys think is better? Flying out to SG might show my dedication to the school, but having my interview with someone from admissions would be less subjective (imo). Help please!!

Travel man! The alumni will be really nice to you if he knows about your trip and then when he asks about it you can say how you had the choice but since you've met and thoroughly enjoyed talking to a few people from Booth before, you thought it was totally worth it!!!
