Yale Class of 2016 Calling all applicants!

@gauthamthegr8 and others - Some work servers (and other e-mail servers) will actually block SOM's interview e-mails specifically, and not even route them to spam. This happened to me when I applied, and I didn't know I'd been invited until I got a call from SOM 4 weeks later wondering why I hadn't scheduled my interview. That is to say, they probably intended to send you an e-mail, it just got lost in the ether. Either way, you've definitely been invited, and should celebrate!

For all others - don't feel that this means that you need to obsessively check your status. As you've already seen, invites go out on Fridays, so checking Saturday mornings might not be a terrible idea. If your status has changed, but you haven't gotten an e-mail, you can always call admissions to clarify/schedule your interview if that is the case.

Yale seems to be moving very patiently with the applications. Although I am anxious, I still like this approach - 'slow and steady'.

I don't quite feel the same. It would've been better had we got periodic updates on the status of the application. May be like application is under review, or adcom has seen the application or something like that.

Does anyone know does Yale send invitation based on applicant's birth origin or his/her current location? Did anyone in Europe specifically in Germany receive an invitation?

I don't think anyone here knows the exact method adcom uses to send out invites. It more or less seems pretty random, so just keep your fingers crossed!

no activity this week?

I think we should see some activity this Friday - last years thread had a significant movement end of Oct/ early Nov. I have given myself 2 more Fridays because I lose hope!

Hi,

Anyone from South america invited to interview?

I am from Brazil and so far nothing from SOM.

Did all get the 'Invitation to Mumbai Reception' email ?

Yes; 'Invitation' got me excited. Rest crashed my hopes much more

I also got that mail. I had already been invited to interview and thought it was the mail confirming my off-campus interview.

@Rishi
did you get a date and venue for the mumbai interview? The last i heard they were still working out the details.

No information yet. Its been more than a couple of days. I'll wait till tomorrow and send them a reminder.

Same here. But I will probably drop a mail after diwali . But considering their mail about the Mumbai Info-session, I believe they have worked out most of the arrangements. Also it seems our interviewer might be Anjani Jain .

I am in the same boat as you guys..waiting to hear from them regarding the interview date..)

Seems like Yale sends on Fridays, so let's hope for another round of interview invites to be sent tomorrow.

... which means another day of me being less than productive at work while repeatedly refreshing my inbox.

Did Yale show up today?

Not in my inbox ! Surprising that no one here posted of getting an interview invite this week.
