I see a change in the online status

Earlier it used to say --
Your application for admission to the Berkeley Full-time MBA program is under review by the Admissions Committee. But we made need additional information....................

Today it says --
Your application for admission to the Berkeley Full-time MBA program is under review by the Admissions Committee. Please visit the web site again and log in with your user name and password on or after the decision date for the round in which you applied to check your application status.

How does it look for other applicants waiting for R2 interview?

Did you send them additional material such as transcripts or degree certificates? Then this status change probably means that they have received your documents and accepted them.

I don't think that's the reason for the change. I'm in the same boat and I had received an email back in mid-December saying they had everything they needed from me. Unless my app sat on the shelf for 2 months... which would give me all kinds of new hope. :)

Had my interview last week on campus. Interviewed with a current student. Lasted about 45 minutes and was very pleasant. Emont's post about the interview was on target. Honestly have no idea how I did, though.

Good luck to all!

This is what I have:
"Status Description
Your application is ready for review, but we may need additional materials before a final decision can be made. Please read the note below, which indicates what is missing from your file. Please feel free to e-mail or call us if you have any questions regarding these documents. "


Yeah I used to have the same message earlier. Weird. I will contact AdCom and see the reason. Thx for the reply.

Hi chaitudrk

My status has changed too..to the one you have now..I really doubt it means anything at all (though it would be interesting if they only now picked up my application for review!)
