Just got an unofficial offer from LBS Strategy

Stern Management & Orgs Dept is having a virtual visit day prior to making final decisions. No idea how many people are invited, though

Here are some of my updates: Acceptances: Berkeley Haas, Duke Fuqua, BU Questrom Rejections: UCLA Anderson, Wharton Ongoing: NYU Stern (invited to virtual visit day), LBS, UMD I guess we'll have all the results by the first week of March?

I applied to 21 schools - interviews at 7 and acceptance from 1. I don't think all schools have interviews so perhaps we will only have final results from those schools!

Thanks! no, that wasn't me

Hey! I received an email a week and a half ago.

Hi guys! I've heard back about interviews from a few schools so far - Berkeley MORS, BU S&I, LBS Strategy, HBS Strategy, Duke Strategy. The interviews are scheduled mostly for this week. I'll post here if I hear from any other schools. Good luck to everyone!

Congrats on submitting all your apps! I’m a little over half way done. I feel you about holding your breath ? Really hoping it will all be good news

I’m p anxious too! I couldn’t find much about business phd interviews on that group though

By relaying my anxieties to them haha. It helps that they’re really supportive and kind. I see that you’re applying to 15 schools so you also have some wonderful recommenders. I really hope we all get accepted to our top choices!

That makes sense to make this a “trial year”. I hope we will get admitted somewhere this year though! I connect with the research at all the schools I’m applying to but perhaps more with HBS, Berkeley, Kellogg, MIT. What are your top choices?

I’m applying to 22 schools because I heard this year will be competitive. 10 down, 12 to go! ?

I’m applying to 22 schools because I heard that this year is going to be quite competitive. 10 down, 12 to go!

Hi guys! I'm applying to business school doctoral programs right now too. I have no idea how competitive it's going to be haha. How's it going for you guys? I'm looking at OB and Strategy programs.

@autechre thanks for this!! And congrats on your acceptances!

@nyan_cat thank you so much for this!! Congratulations on the admits - have you decided where you're going?

Hey guys! I applied to a bunch of data science programs and have been rejected by Columbia, UPenn, Brown, Berkeley (Statistics), Stanford (Statistics), USF, Michigan (MIDS), and CMU (Statistical Practice) where I was on the waitlist. I am still waiting to hear back from NYU (waitlist) and USC. If I don't get in this year, I will apply again next year. Before I do that, I would love to better understand all of your backgrounds and scores so that I can better structure my application :) Here are my details: 1. Undergrad degree: Econ, Chinese double major 2. Undergrad GPA: 3.4 3. GRE scores: 163 Q, 162 V, 4 AW 4. 4 years of experience working on data science projects in renewable energy, video recommendations and micro-finance Look forward to hearing from you all!! Thanks!
