Hi Mikezzzzzzz. Pardon me if I missed a z! According to past trends they should start giving calls from tomorrow. Now I am not sure how they manage the different time zones. I am sure gmatclub and clearadmit will be abuzz when they start calling. All the best! Posted from my mobile device

all the best to you, too!!! Wondering also what time they'll call international applicants and should I anixously wait out until the wee hours.

Hi jcl07. I spoke to one of the alum in my town, who is also a surgeon. She told me she had received the call during daytime while she was in the middle of an eye operation with patient on a eye retractor. She excused herself from the operation to take the call( I would do the same) and it ended up being a half hour call!!! The patient totally clueless of what the hell was happening. So long story short, I think they usually don’t call during the wee hours. So enjoy a good night sleep. Cheers! And all the best to you too! Posted from my mobile device

Thank you! I guess all we can do is just wait patiently

I heard they would start with East Asia. I am expecting some news tomorrow.

Yes. A few more hours! Someone has reported an acceptance on Livewire on clearadmit. But most feel it’s a troll, as no one else has reported it. It’s too early I feel. Fingers crossed and let’s wait on it together! Cheers! Posted from my mobile device

I saw this on Clear Admit. If it's true, then they really started with East Asia first. December 8, 2020 12:14am Accepted to Stanford GSB via phone Today. GPA: 3.8 GMAT: 770 Round: Round 1 | Japan Post-MBA Career: Finance OMG OMG OMG!!! Received the call from my alumni interviewer after lunch time

I saw a new report from Japan on Livewire. It seems that they just began calling East Asian applicants.

Yes. Saw that too. Don’t know whether to believe it or not! Never heard before that alumni calling and letting the applicants know. If that’s true I am happy for him/her. If it’s a troll, it’s too bad Posted from my mobile device
