I am pulling my hair... by the end of the day, I will be officially bold. I can't handle it anymore... I can't....
I'm with you. My concentration (outside of this forum) is non-existent. I mean, its only the rest of our lives we're talking about here. It's only $200K worth of student loan payments for the next 20 years. Its only the difference between CEO, CFO and cubicle king. Its only ...uhh, oh crap, I just realized that this is the 800 lb. gorilla of my life we're talking about here!
although we've been kidding around a lot on this forum, today's meeting in St. Louis is no joke..

I literally just got my tooth pulled....and I was checking this forum while he was shooting me up with novocaine. How's that for forum addiction. So I can honestly say that waiting for this decision is worse than getting a tooth pulled.

I got it too, I doubt it necessarily means ding. The status is posted online whether you're admitted or not, the difference is probably that someone will call you before an update is made should you be admitted. If dinged they'll probably just post it online and avoid awkward phone call lol

I checked this the other day, based on last year's thread, Ross won't notify candidates till Monday or Tuesday of next week. Wouldn't read much into this, just procedural it seems like.

#6 was wisconsin. I grew up in wisconsin but live in california now. They originally offered me a full tuition scholarship and assistantship ($8000) back in december. I figured with such an aggresive offer so early other schools would respond favorably as well. I just got an email from the director saying I'm a consortium fellow for wisconsin, so I assume all of the other schools turned me down. I'm grateful but also a little bummed. My #1 was ucla and wonder if they will still consider me for admittance even without the fellowship.starting to wonder if applying through the consortium will work against me in this case.

Sorry if I'm a little dense guys....what the hell is happening right now? They are calling all/some applicants about fellowships today? What about if you haven't been admitted anywhere yet, do they call with admit + fellowship decision? Or is it just for people with acceptances? Is this R1 or R2? Someone needs to catch me up...I got a little lost hahaha.

co2013MBA, sorry you didn't get a fellowship offer to your top choice schools! :(

But, look on the bright side, you got something! :) (Trying to be positive.)

this may or may not compare in terms of the freak-out factor, but a couple weeks after I got into Darden, I received an email whose subject was, "Admissions Offer Correction" or soemthing to that effect. I was like "holy crap! They changed their minds!"
