Darden released their essay questions today. While it's not the highest ranked school I'm applying to, it might be the one I'm most excited about.

Wasn't someone saying that all Darden invites were going out at once? Does that mean I can assume I'm not getting one?

I'm in the same boat and more than a little worried. I'm confident that there will be more coming, but I don't know if the earlier invites are more highly favored or what...

Just got mine as well.

Doubt they release them all at once though so I don't think it's time to panic by any means.

Congratulations guys!

Looking forward to getting debriefs on your interviews... When are you going?

Just scheduled mine for December 21st and booked my flight along with my hotel and rental car. I'm so excited for this!!! And to those that haven't gotten the email yet, no where have I heard that they're releasing the invites in one round. If anything I've heard that they'll be coming out throughout the next two months, up until the decision deadline of January 28th.

Good luck to everyone.

I think Darden sends a bunch of them out at once, but trickles others out later. They also sent the alumni/overseas interview invites in a different batch.

Did any international applicant get an invite already?

Sarah Neher mentioned that international applicants can expect to get their invites after the domestic invites have started so I'm willing to bet the internationals haven't heard anything yet.

I sure hope this still holds. Sarah mentioned in her video blog that alumni interview invites will also be sent out this week (first week of Dec). I really like Darden and I'm still hoping for an invite.

The Darden website is very clear:

"Please note that interview notification can take place at any time up until the decision release date for the deadline in which you have applied."

Round 1 decisions are released January 28th...

So I think it's safe to say that NOT all invites were sent today...but of course this means some of us may have to wait nervously for a while....

Don't worry guys, only 4/20 people in R1 received invites:

Last year, around 80% of applicants on GClub got invites. It's highly unlikely that the GClub invite percentage dropped by 66%. Statistically speaking, we should see about 12 more from the group.

It's pretty clear they're releasing decisions alphabetically by GMATclub userID. Haha, kidding aside, everyone take a deep breath, more decisions are coming. Internationals, you REALLY have nothing to worry about yet because I don't think a single international invite has been sent out yet.

Email the admissions department. I'm sure they'll let you interview in January.

Hey guys,

I just created my account at this website and want to share much information with you guys.

I‘ am an international applicant and waiting for interview invite from Darden. I applied to 5 B-schools out of top 15 schools last month, and have been dinged by 2 schools and had interview with one school. I’m waiting for results from Darden and Sloan now.
