DoktorDoktor Posted February 15, 2020 Posted February 15, 2020 17 hours ago, futureOBdr said: I am just dying here!!! Seeing that people have gotten interviews and have been accepted/rejected is really starting to bother me. I haven't heard anything from any of the schools that I applied to. No interview, no rejection, and no acceptance. Has anyone heard anything from the OB programs at Stanford, USC, or UC-Irvine? I'm trying to decide what step I should take next because I just graduated in December with my MBA with an emphasis in HR Management. It really doesn't make sense to get a "permanent" job if I am going to move from Nevada to California for a PhD program. But not hearing anything at all--I am in such limbo!! I'm doing a couple of filler jobs to try and get some money to pay my bills, but I'd really like to know what my status is so that I know what to do. Hearing that the Stanford message was most likely a system error has really taken the wind out of my sails--I'm afraid that I won't be accepted anywhere now. I hope you would get a good result soon, but in case that doesn't happen and you don't want to get a permanent job, a pre-doc fellowship or a full time RA won't be a bad idea.
jash Posted February 16, 2020 Posted February 16, 2020 This Winston Churchill Quote seems apt, not only while we wait now, but also after we're accepted and trying to get published, and eventually after we've graduated and looking for tenure. We've got this everyone! Success is the ability to go from one failure to another with no loss of enthusiasm. -Winston Churchill maverick__ 1
Ligia Posted February 16, 2020 Posted February 16, 2020 Hey guys! Have you heard back from USC Marshall (M&O Strategy program), UCI Paul Merage (M&O program) and UCLA Anderson (M&O program)?

I think my research fit was not quite good with them. I was rejected as well. I'm not really that upset over it because it was my third choice anyway. But I'm still waiting on the other two. I'm really wanting to be accepted at Stanford but I haven't even had an interview from either school.

My status is still just "complete". By the way, I think 3 is a bit low for the number of schools. Do you have a location constraint by any chance?

Whitley Posted February 17, 2020 Posted February 17, 2020 I got informed by the finance PhD program at Kent State that I am waiting listed. Any one wants to decline the offer, please let me know. Also, wish all applicants have a happy ending this year.

DHPL Posted February 18, 2020 Posted February 18, 2020 Has anyone heard from Wharton Marketing since the interviews?
mgmtphd Posted February 19, 2020 Posted February 19, 2020 (edited) Does anyone know about information of the UW (OB) on-campus interview (or reject)? I asked to the program's official email account about my application status, but they haven't replied back yet. I'm considering sending an email directly to POI whether my application is still reviewed (perhaps for a waitlist) & I have a chance to have an interview, but I'm not sure if it is right time to ask about it. Can anyone give me some advice? Edited February 19, 2020 by mgmtphd

If you have outstanding offers, feel free to do it, but otherwise it will just seem annoying.

I actually saw they scheduled some Skype interviews after they sent out their flyout. (idk... maybe someone received flyout but withdrew?)
stratallia Posted February 20, 2020 Posted February 20, 2020 Hey all, if you haven't got any admits yet I know some programs in Europe are accepting late/second round admissions. Here are two: Frankfurt School of Finance & Management: https://www.frankfurt-school.de/en/home/programmes/doctoral HEC Paris: https://www.hec.edu/en/doctoral-program/admissions Both are excellent programs!

phdstrategy2020fall Posted February 20, 2020 Posted February 20, 2020 Hi, does anyone hear back from LBS strategy after on-campus visiting. Told that the decision will be made yesterday but didn't hear back....very nervous
Whitley Posted February 20, 2020 Posted February 20, 2020 Hi Guys, Wondering what is the possibility of getting admitted from waiting list. When schools will send out second round admissions or interviews.

maverick__ Posted February 26, 2020 Posted February 26, 2020 It seems like some of the programs like UC Irvine (OB) haven't sent out interview requests yet, while others have already accepted their PhD applicants. How many programs are y'all still waiting/hoping to hear from? Mandeville 1

I assume the other 3 probably are not going to contact me at this point because I heard/read that BU already accepted applicants and that was one of the schools I have not heard from. I just assume they are not planning to let me know. (I am a Strategy applicant not OB)
DoktorDoktor Posted February 27, 2020 Posted February 27, 2020 I wonder how long after an interview should I email the school and ask for update? I've been waiting to hear back from a school for more than 2 weeks...

I've been waiting to hear back from a school for more than 2 weeks... I've heard that if you haven't heard from your top school(s) this week now is a perfectly acceptable time to ask. Especially post interview. Found out I was on a waitlist after reaching out last week, got an emailed acceptance last week, I get the feeling (especially if you interviewed) they already know by this point. I assume every school that hasn't contacted me yet either has me on a waitlist or isn't planning to contact me to reject me. Shrug.
coffeesaurus Posted February 28, 2020 Posted February 28, 2020 Has anyone applied/heard from Cincinnati? No one has reported anything yet and I'm forty-five seconds away from vomiting over it ?
PhD@biz Posted February 28, 2020 Posted February 28, 2020 Anyone hear applied to Muma college of business,South Florida

I am still waiting to hear from USC Marshall (Strategy program), UCLA Anderson (M&O Program) and UC Irvine (organizations and management program). I do not expect to hear from UCLA because I think they already accepted applicants. Not sure about Marshall and UC Irvine...
