Yo man - some people on reddit are saying that only certain people (Small percent of admits) get a call on the 4th, is that correct?

Did you see that in the r/MBA subreddit? I haven't seen anything there. Could be possible they don't call everyone

That’s exactly where i saw it! I think the post was deleted tho, can’t find it anymore. I would think its probably hard to call 300+ people in one day. So i guess safest bet is to just wait until the 5th...

Booth’s tradition is to call ALL admitted applicants. If you’re admitted in round 1 this year, expect a call tomorrow. Calling 300 people in a day isn’t hard. They can easily divide between ADCOM and 2nd years, and have all day to make the calls.

Big Mike with the solid info as always. That makes total sense, just already trying to do some mental gymnastics if I don't hear anything the first day. Also, just to be clear, calls would be Wednesday the 4th not tomorrow right :)

Calls on the 4th (admitted). Portal updates on the 5th (denied and waitlisted).

What time do they start calling from? I saw last year in Clear Admit the first was around 9:30am, but wasn't sure if that was Chicago time or local time

Mike any idea how late they go with calls? 5pm EST? Feel like it was 5pm CST for interview invites (I had already left the office before I got the email).

Super hyped for everyone in here who will get in, extremely nervous already for myself hahah. Didnt think I had a good interview, but I think my Booth essay was the best one I wrote of all.

Fingers crossed for everyone! :please :please :please

I would estimate 5PM CST, or whenever they get done with notifying everyone. The later calls being for international applicants on the other side of the world.

[/b][/size]

I'll be there my guy. I look forward to us all trying to make sense of the order of calls. Will it be regionally? I would guess it also might be alphabetically sorted, might need to check last name initial of those who get early calls. Or maybe its just like the interviews and its all random to drive us crazy :)

I would guess they’re doing it by region.

Just a question, what if the international applicant's timezone is different by a lot?

I am at +14 hours to Chicago time, meaning 9am-5pm at Chicago would be 11pm-7am at my place :(

Keen to know someone's experience.

Going to be an early call for you. I’ve seen some past reports with calls as early as 630am in there time zone.

That's true. Many schools start their calls with East Asian applicants.

Some people on clearadmit report seeing their view status for interview go away. can anyone on gmatclub confirm? wonder if that means your portal is getting updated early so they can call you on time.
