Can’t believe they started sending invites on 12 January this year! Very early compared to previous years. I applied in rd 2 but haven’t received an invite.


Do you think they received fewer apps this cycle compared to previous years?

Could be candidates who applied before december and multiple ways to look at it, if they have some candidates who by the looks of it were an easy pick for an interview, that can be a driving factor too. Coz, in some (rare) cases, those possibilities hold true. Of course these are speculations but that doesn’t mean anything yet. Or it just could be a hoax given most of these things are self reported. We never know

Be patient, you guys will receive invites soon.

Exactly - I find it hard to believe that no one from this group received an invite.

I can confirm that interview invitations to R2 applicants are going out as I received one this morning.

No need to be stressed about this - GSB explicitly state on their website that the timing of the interview is uncorrelated with an applicant’s admission chances. Interviews simply go out in the order in which they go through applications, I assume.

They started within the two week window as usual, I believe. I cannot disclose which clients got it but most of the clients are ORM (hoping this helps others).

But I would never trust the self reported stuff. I have been on this forum and others long enough. There have been times where misrepresentation has happened so I always go with a good enough data set to make decision

And I also received inquiries because of our free virtual interview Q&A walk-ins too so some people have received it, this week too. Most people from different demographics, so anyone can receive it based on whatever adcom has decided to do this year. But interviews have started rolling out so I hope this helps. Godspeed my fellow changemakers!

Has only else not received an email notification confirming their application was submitted? I contacted the GSB admission office and they said my application was on file, but found it weird I never got an email notification

ORM International I meant, but I guess there’s multiple ways of saying so.

Did anyone who applied through the consortium receive a confirmation email from GSB? I can see in the consortium portal that the GSB application is "complete" but worried that I did not get any confirmation.

Depends on your profile, demographics and to be perfectly honest some statistics too.

But if you can wait another 4 months, you could invest that time in preparing a strong application for the R1 coming up.
