wannabephd Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 Yeah NYU, Columbia and Northwestern seem to have forgotten my interview invitations as well. Also I'm still trying to figure out what went down with Wharton and this whole rejection email mishap. Oversights are all over the place this year ;-) I know right! Seems like Duke also may have "forgotten" my invite. Clearly their system is broken. I wish they would have called their IT Help Desk Support people to make sure that all the invites they were supposed to send out were in fact sent out... ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wannabephd Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 Why do you assume that? You can't see it, but your beard in the profile pic actually forms the letters "CB" :) actually, I knew you were CB, but I may have read all of last year's threads...just maybe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XanthusARES Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 actually, I knew you were CB, but I may have read all of last year's threads...just maybe When I was applying I went through all of the old threads on the forum. Countless nights were spent on my tablet reading through old posts and wondering where those former members are now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lfollis Posted February 18, 2015 Author Share Posted February 18, 2015 Ifolis is CB. Well...I thought so originally too, but I guess we're both wrong-some schools have listed me as CB, some as Quant. Michigan actually has me down as quant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wannabephd Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 For those of you who are still waiting to hear from INSEAD, I was told they would have a shortlist *hopefully* next week.

wannabephd Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Thank you!! My schools are on a later timeframe - haha. (I've had some interviews, and now I wait.) I am hoping for an update with an acceptance next week! Fingers crossed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheetrockero Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Yeah, I'm expecting outcomes from the two schools I interviewed with by next week. Pretty sure one will be a rejection and the other an acceptance. There has been nothing but silence from pretty much all the other schools I applied to.

I am hoping for an update with an acceptance next week! Fingers crossed I have really started to feel like the admissions process (especially the waiting) is some form of hazing. Stick it out; we have just a few more weeks. I am hopeful that we, and the other persistent urchians, will be joining the field in 2015 and I will be eagerly awaiting the opportunity to congratulate you on your first admit :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miuh187 Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 I'm bored and looking at school websites now. Has anyone noticed the size of Kellogg's first year class? I thought it was 10 at one point, but looks like there's 8. And generally 3-4 in the other years. Does anyone know if they normally admit that many people? Nearly all of the students that were admitted last year accepted, which I'm assuming is not what usually happens. The first year class started with 8 (6 cb, 2 q) and still have 8. The people that left were from other years and were still included on the first year list for awhile. Kellogg kicked out 7 students from 2nd year to 4th year last autumn. This is not true. 4 students left, not 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phd12345 Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Any news for UCLA CB? Any news for INSEAD CB after paper review? Sigh...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tryingfor2015 Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 (edited) Any news for UCLA CB? Any news for INSEAD CB after paper review? Sigh...... Uh oh... after paper review? Sounds like I need to cross INSEAD off my list. I was told this week that they would have a shortlist by *hopefully* next week, but the old INSEAD Marketing posts on gradcafe show only rejections post-feb.

Ah, so your yield was super high. Still means my theory of "too many said yes so there's no space for me this coming fall" might be true. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
