Hi all, got my interview invite today too!! I was given two choices 1) sign up for a regular interview slot 2) wait until Feb 3 to attend a women in business event and conference and interview during that time. Anyone else in the same boat? I am torn as to which option to choose. I want to interview asap so that acceptance slots are still aplenty, but perhaps attending this event will give me more exposure to ad com? I can't imagine they would give random people any kind of unfair advantage so not sure...

thoughts?

I was wondering the same thing, and I keep going back and forth! Have you had any new thoughts? Anyone else?


If you interview earlier, do you still get to attend the WiB conference? Or are the two linked?

Probably not - it looks to me like they reserve space at the conference as first-come first-serve for those who are interviewing. It's possible we'd still be able to get in but not guaranteed.

Brainhurt, you're so right -- thank you for the great, level headed feedback. I think I was reading too much into things!

Congrat's on the invite! That's a tough one...

I think there will still be plenty of spots at Feb 3, and getting extra facetime with the adcom would be at least neutral and probably slightly positive. On the other hand, the interview is conducted by an adcom member, so this benefit won't be as much as it would be for schools who do blind alumni interviews.

My guess is they offer this choice for people who aren't 100% certain about NYU as a way to improve their yield. If you opt for the regular interview sooner, that could show that you're already sold on NYU and that could be a positive.

Either way, any benefit to your admissions chances that may be conferred by one option or the other will be dwarfed by the importance of the interview itself. If I was in your shoes I would opt for the regular interview sooner because the whole waiting thing is slowly killing me.

Got an invite today -- but I'm going to pull my application as I was accepted to Columbia. Its kind of a shame b/c I think my NYU application was my strongest by far and I would have liked to see it through to conclusion, but c'est la vie. Best of luck everyone! Hit me up in NYC sometime this fall if you'd like.

i sure hope they send some out next week, ill be home in nj i was always hoping id get an invite so i could interview next week when i was home on leave (im in the army down in GA)

now if i get an invite it will be abother $500 to come home and interview, but i cannot complain if i get the invite, just part of the game i guess

heading to MIT on Jan 7 so at least i have one invite, just want as many as possible to hedge my bets

good luck to everyone and have a great holiday season

btw, my application status check site reads: "We have received your application and it is being presented to the Admissions Committee for review." does that imply it IS under review?

What does your status read guys?

That's the standard wording after the initial confirmation email. I don't think it implies anything other than they have received your application.
