My Haas MBA Program Review by 1-st year student. Rating:*****

I remember seeing somewhere that the interview decisions would go out by Feb 1. Anyone know why they haven't all gone out yet?

I remember reading that Berkeley interview invites can be extended anytime before the decision deadline.

Does each applicant get a ready to review email from HAAS? Its over a month and I haven't received any such mail. Did anybody in round 1 get dinged without the ready to review email?

I was missing something in the application and after delivering the missing material, I got a manual "Your file is now complete and ready for review by the admissions committee." but no automated email. My status on website says "Submitted". Not sure if that's what everyone is seeing on their app login.
