Maybe don't lose hope yet, everyone. Emailed Kellogg admissions today and received this response:

"Thank you for reaching out! Your application is currently under review. We are continuing to work through our interview assignments and will be in touch in the next few weeks with more information on your interview assignment."

I just got an invite today - so don’t lose hope! Can confirm the portal has slots all the way until the 15th so interview invites should still be rolling.

Does Everyone get an interview or are they selective? I know that for their normal MBA an interview is just 5-10% of the overall application so doesn't really affect the overall decision majorly.

Based on last year's thread it seems like it is a combination of both but a majority of them mentioned that the Admissions office conducted their interview.

Any idea if the interview is selective or does everyone get one?

As far as I am aware. They are selective. They try to accommodate as many people as they can.

Has anyone heard from Kellogg this week? Last year people were still receiving interviews around this time but I am not sure if they are still sending any out. Additionally, if anyone has access to the calendar for interviews, any information on remaining interviews would be helpful!

Hey guys. I checked the interview portal. Slots are only there till the 18th and they are all filled up.

Each day on average had 4 slots, and assuming interviews started on the 19th, that is roughly 20 days (only weekdays). So I am guessing they interviewed a total of around ~80 people.

I also did hear that Kellogg is selective about conducting interviews for the KFL, unlike the regular MBA program where they interview everyone. :? :$

I recently spoke to Adcom and they mentioned that they are still reviewing apps and are in the process of sending a few more interview invites.

Just got this email. Is this a rejection? Confused!

"Thank you for applying to the Kellogg Future Leaders program. At this time, you have not been selected for an interview. The interview is a single factor in your evaluation and is by no means the most important criterion for admission. The committee will contact you personally if they feel they need further clarification on any aspect of your application."

Do we think this is a ding? It's very cryptically worded.
