Below "Submitted" is where you will see "Complete"

i.e.

Whatron Apply Yourself Site


Application for Admission
Submission Status: Submitted
Submitted Date: 1/5/2010 11:20:00 AM E.S.T.
Complete - Round 2
Show more

Note the two bold sections.

If the bottom bold (Complete - Round 2) says complete, that means the operations team has sent your app to the adcom.

I am R2 as well. My application status still shows "submitted". Should this status change to "complete" or "under review" or something? I feel like I should be worried.


Typically it should say Complete-Round 2 or something like that...this means that your app is now in the hands of the reviewers and is getting evaluated...If yours still says submitted then there is no harm in reaching out and inquiring..chill..each of us has their own pet worries 8-)

I'm actually a little worried about my Wharton app. I'm looking to go into energy consulting/marketing in developing countries (especially Africa) with a focus on sustainability. My background is in high-tech/engineering. Wharton's reputation is that it's finance-heavy. Would Wharton be interested in someone with my experience/background/goals?

count me in for round 2 - this waiting is killing me!

does anyone else feel like applying to schools is very similar to dating...you had a great first date where you shared each other's backgrounds and really felt like there was an undeniable connection. then the guy has to go out of town for three weeks and says he'll call you when he gets back on jan 26th but with each passing day that he doesn't call, you are less hopefully about the new relationship and just when you have given up all hope and are on write-off day (aka feb 18th), you hear from him!

Here's to hoping we all hear from him before that write-off date!

Please count me in for R2 as well.

Anyone have any thoughts on alumni sending in "unsolicited" e-mails on behalf of your candidacy? I work with a couple Wharton grads who I work closely with have offered, but I know at least one has already been sent by a professor/club sponsor alumnus. I want to make my application as strong as possible after a disappointing R1, but don't want to go overboard.

I read some questions on the Wharton boards and adcom seemed insistent that no additional materials should be sent in lieu of pending applications. That said, I would wait until you get an interview invite, and see if the interviewer has something different to say about that. I also have alums who know me and want to send letters of support. One actually suggested I tell him who would be interviewing me so he can reach out to the interviewer.

From a Math perspective - 1/8 applicants gets admitted and 1/2 is interviewed. If you are in the bottom half, what letter of support can put you above 4-7 candidates competing for that spot? However if you are already interviewed, your odds are 1/1 to 1/4 - any small nudge may be useful, if they allow it. If your interviewer says no additional materials are needed - I wouldn't cross him/her.

Thanks, this is helpful. I hadn't thought of sending one directly to the interviewer...certainly something I will consider.

One of my friends actually got an invite last week on Jan 27. We both agreed that I shouldn't start worrying until after the mid-Feb decision point...

Just wanted to let you guys know that I just received an interview invite. I got the notification via email (just when I'd resigned myself to just waiting until February 18).

Any R1ers who are still around have any advice for on-campus interviews?

Just got mine as well. Did not think it would be coming until later (or, more likely, not at all).

I am based in India so perhaps the invitation will arrive much later than those from candidates based in the US. Is that right?

Congrats to those who got interviews! I just emailed adcom about my application status. Fingers crossed that I'll hear back from them.
