My Apply Yourself paged got updated yesterday with all the required documents.

The status page also shows that I have accepted the MBA program's offer of admission.

It's officially official, I'm going to UCLA this fall!

I was waitlisted in R1 and got accepted in R2. I didn't do anything at all -- just sit and wait. When the R2 date came around, I got an email that my status had been updated and I was pleasantly surprised with an admit. However, I will most likely turn down the offer so hopefully another waitlister can take my spot! Good luck

I declined my Anderson offer and will be enrolling at Michigan. Congrats to all those attending in the fall - my best friend graduated from Anderson last year, and loved her experience.

I am a R2 admit for UCLA, and am trying to evaluate some questions I have regarding the program. Does anyone know UCLA's placement for finance internships/careers (i.e. banking) in the Northeast/Midwest? Obviously, UCLA has a phenomenal reputation for its finance program, but I'm wondering if it is mostly confined to the west coast. I am from the eastern part of the country and would like to return after graduation.

Any feedback from current students or alums would be greatly appreciated!

Just want to thank all those who know they aren't going to attend UCLA for declining their offer and hopefully opening up spots for those of us still waiting and those of us who applied R3. It doesn't seem like much but you never know who you might be helping!!

Just had my interview today off campus with an alum. if I was on the fence about which school i preferred before, I am now anderson all the way. He sold the experience so well and really got me excited about it. It seems the things that really set anderson apart are the experiences outside of the classroom, which is very important to me. He said he wished he could go back several times, haha.

now i just have to wait and wait and wait and wait...

Would you mind sharing when you submitted your application and when you received the interview invite? When I submitted my app on the 12th, I got the confirmation email saying that my application status would be available on the 27th. I figured that the interview invites wouldn't go out until then, but I noticed this past Wednesday or Thursday, that my status had changed from "Submitted." to "Submitted. Your application is complete for committee review." Perhaps they have gone out already...

Does anyone know whether the invites go out all at once or do they do it one by one as each app gets looked at?

Submitted my application on 3/30, received the interview invite on 4/18. From what I can tell after looking at last years thread, the invites are not all sent out at once, but over the course of a few weeks.

I am a round 2 waitlister. My profile F/710/7.5 years (4 years International). Am an applicant from India.
To all the waitlisted candidates :Are you guys going to wait till round 3 or go for your second choice schools. I am trying to make up my mind for my second choice school because it will be pretty late when the round 3 decisions are out and we will not have much choice left then.
Any advice on how to handle waitlist ?
