dp720760 congrats on admission! I found out last Thursday! I saw your note on connecting with fellow admits - I'd also like to start connecting with the CBS '22 class.

Any one of you can take a lead and start a separate thread for admits. Just paste the following code in the first post; It will display admits roll call on the thread.

Code:

This forum became quite quiet.
My interview feedback was submitted on 7 September (Saturday).
I am waiting to hear back from them, but I understand that they sometime give feedback in 1 day sometime 14 days...
I am excited and anxious.

Submitted 8/9 (August 2020 ED) and have not heard back yet at all - anyone in a similar position? Thought decisions around this time take max 4 weeks. The Status section of my application also just says "Submitted" - is it supposed to say complete or something?

If you don't mind asking, how long did it take to receive interview invite? I guess most people who are waiting to hear back would want to know this.

Sure - I got an interview invite ~3 weeks after my submission. Took me a week to hear back after my interview. Happy to report that I was accepted this morning!

In years past we've seen the timelines stretch a bit as we start getting closer to the Oct 4 ED deadline, so just keep that in mind. Those who applied earlier in the summer likely experienced shorter total turnarounds than anyone who's submitting now through Oct 4 when they're getting more slammed with applications.

Best of luck to all!

I got an interview invite about 5 weeks after submitting in early July.
