Add me to the November round. I'm back to Tuck For the current student, how important is the on-campus interview? I went to the admission event, and everything tells me that I NEED TO VISIT THE CAMPUS. But I can't due to several reasons. I wonder the % of people interviewed on-campus to people accepted. Any ideas?

If you live in the States: somehow important. If you are from another country: absolutely not expected. In both cases if they really like your profile they will find a way to have you interviewed (phone, alumn) even if you don't come on campus.

Does anyone know how much having two typos and 4-5 missed commas hurt the chances of admission?

Will ask here again- Anyone with an idea of difference between applying in November versus January round? Are they considered the official R1 and R2 like in other schools? Any input folks? Thanks

It may if it comes down to you and another applicant with very similar profiles. Maybe they will give the other person an edge. But in reality, things like this happen. People get in with errors. Too many errors are bad, but too many is subjective.

Does anyone have any update for Tuck? For those peeps who have already interviewed, is it pretty much a wait for the decision date?

I've read that the January round typically has the highest volume. Most other schools have an even distribution between R1 and R2.

Any news about interview process?

@current students I am an international applicant and submitted EA app without an interview. I have not visited the campus either. I want to find when Tuck will start sending committee-initiated interview invites.
