I just got the email from Deena Williams (6.51am here) and I am IN!

I got up at 4am this morning and checked my status - no change, and I went back to bed... thought I would get up this morning with a DING mail in my inbox.

Anyway, profile: GMAT 710/F/WE 5Yrs/Consulting engineer with top firm (fourtune 500)/lots of EC.

Guys, best of luck - offers are still going out.

PS. I haven't had a proper sleep for two weeks now, so time to go to bed.

What are everyone's thoughts on returning a missed call from an 847 number?

I returned a missed call from an 847 number. Turned out adcom wasnt able to leave a vm and I was admitted!

Doesn't hurt to call back!

bei

I'M IN!!!! i'm a US citizen but currently working in Peru so i wasn't sure if they would call or email me... just got an email with the subject line: Update from Kellogg

Dear bei,

Congratulations on your admission to Kellogg!

My colleagues and I are very excited to share this great news with you. In fact, we wanted to do so directly, by telephone, but were unable to reach you.

Please know that we are truly delighted to welcome you to Kellogg and we look forward to seeing you on campus.
You will receive your official admissions packet within the next three weeks. This packet will include your formal admissions letter, as well as your Kellogg ID and password to access our admitted student website. On this site, you will find comprehensive information about Kellogg programs, academics, key deadlines, housing, financial aid and more.
In order to receive this information before your admissions packet arrives, please contact me directly at xxx

Our admitted student weekend, Day at Kellogg (DAK), is the weekend of February 11. We hope you can attend, as this annual event provides a firsthand look at the school’s vibrant culture. On the admitted student website, you will see more information about DAK and how to register.

Once again — congratulations on becoming part of Kellogg!

Warmest regards,
Michael Geneser
Assistant Director of Admissions
Kellogg School of Management
2001 Sheridan Rd.
Evanston, IL 60208

i interviewed in early november off-campus and i think my interview went pretty well. i feel that my stats are relatively average, except my work experience (peace corps). now i don't have to think about R2 apps!!! good luck to everyone else!!!

Congrats bei!! That's the biggest stress reliever for me too - no R2 apps!!!

Also.. random thought, do you think Adcom could view the number of times that we are checking our application status? Would probably take some serious IT/web analytics... but still, that would be frightening.. then they could see just how desparate and OCD we really are!
