Cj14, do you know if many people saw invites toward the end of the invite window in R1? I'm with whoever said it earlier - I can't be in the bottom 55% of the applicant pool, can I? Not a confidence booster going into interviews at Booth & Kellogg next weekend.

If I remember correctly there was a pretty big wave that came out right at the end.

Can anyone comment on whether Wharton actually sends out an interview invitation email? Or are individuals expected to check their apply yourself account every tuesday and thursday to see whether they have updated it. Wharton seems to be considerably slower in round two than virtually every other top school with the possible exception of Stanford in terms of getting their invitations out.

Wharton sends out emails and changes your status on ApplyYourself. It seems to be consistently on Thursdays, at least in Round 2 of this year. The email is from The Wharton School <[email protected]> and looks something like this:

Quote:
Dear xxxxxx,


You have been invited to interview for the MBA program at The Wharton School. To schedule your interview, which must be confirmed by 11:59 p.m. on Sunday, February 19, 2012, log into your Wharton account and select "Search" in the Events box to the right on the main page. Next select an interview type (On-Campus or Off-Campus) and proceed to schedule your interview. Please choose the interview type that best suits your needs and schedule, making sure to read the instructions given for each type of interview very carefully.

Please note that On-Campus interviews are conducted by both Admissions staff and Admissions Fellows, a select group of trained second-year students. As a result, you may more easily find an On-Campus interview slot that meets your schedule.

As a Lauder applicant you must also complete an interview with Lauder. Please contact Meghan Ellis at [email protected] to schedule your Lauder interview. Again, this interview is in addition to your Wharton interview.


In addition, many students have found value in combining their interview with a campus visit as it provides a wonderful opportunity to gain additional insight both into the Wharton program as well as our community. Through our campus visit program you can sit in on classes, speak with students and tour Wharton's beautiful campus.

We look forward to meeting you in the near future.

Sincerely,

Wharton MBA Admissions & Financial Aid

Maybe i'm just grasping at straws here,..but could Wharton be inviting US folks based on location as well? For those w/ invites.....can u give your regions (e.g. Northeast, West,etc etc)? I know its a stretch because off-campus interviews are available...but Wharton seems to have a rationale for how they release their invites. I'm only a 2 hour drive south of Philly, I guess i'm hoping that they want to invite me but are giving priority to those who might have a harder time securing a convenient interview time.

I also notice that a lot of Lauder folks are getting invited today,....could Wharton be extending all their Lauder invites as well as some regular MBA invites? And then perhaps next week release only regular MBA invites (meaning they haven't released the bulk of their regular MBA invites)?

Not a bad hypothesis...I feel like a lot of the invitees I've seen today are Lauder as well. But I'd be wary of this level of speculation. In my mind, it doesn't help one way or the other, simply because we really won't know until we know. So, here's to hoping we hear some good news in the next couple weeks. If not, c'est la vie!

sorry, just to clarify that i got my interview last week but just found the forum. the HK interviews are march 1-3 and when i signed up (last friday) there were still a lot of free slots, like most of the friday and saturday slots were still available. and the interviews are only happening in march so there's still a good chance you'll hear back. hang in there!
