Do you guys know the process for the interiew invite? I mean. based in what criteria do you get an invite today or friday. Is it random?

And where exactly on the webpage you can see the invite?

Hello to everyone!

You are getting way too analytical about this whole interview process. The timing of the interview invite has no bearing on the final decision. These invites are released in a random order with no set pattern or process.

It will be displayed on your application page once you log into your application portal.

You are right. I should write a post about obsessing with the Application process...

Things I hope may be useful as you wait for interview invites:


  • On first round, some people, including me, found out about their invites by updating the portal, and never got the e-mail. If this happens it is no cause for concern
  • In addition to GMAT club, it is possible to track interview invites and admissions at this site: https://blog.clearadmit.com/livewire/?school=chicago-booth

Good luck!

Where exactly does the interview invite appear? Instead of the "Submitted" word?

I just refreshed the page and at the top there was a box that said a status update had been posted, and to click to view. It's in a different color and it's extremely conspicuous.

I got an email that my status has changed but I'm too scared to look at it lol.

Did anyone get a ding? If all the updates were invites, that would make me feel much better.

R2 interview. Got the "your status has changed" and figured it was either a ding or I'd forgotten to submit my transcript or something. Anyone know what cities they can interview you in? I'm in a flyover state, think I may as well just go to campus, but if there's something close by I guess I could do that.
