mgmtphd Posted February 1, 2020 Posted February 1, 2020 To OB applicants, has anyone heard from UW or USC?

I interviewed with them but didn't get campus interview invitation yet :((((( Oh good luck we could be in the same biz phd cohort! I sort of pushed my way into a campus visit... so yes but only kinda. Long story short one professor mentioned pulling for me internally during the Skype interview, so in my thank you email I asked about visiting the campus. I got an affirmative and some dates and it was set up from there. Edited February 1, 2020 by jash

My interviewer mentioned that campus interview invitations would be sent out in Feb. Are you also applying for OB? And congrats on campus interview! Good luck!

No, I assumed I was rejected since in previous years they were one of the first programs to send out interview invites. But I got interviews at all similarly ranked programs so far, so I'm not sure.

Maybe just no one is updating the gradcafe...

By "all" in my comment, I meant "all that I know have sent out interview invites" (through grad cafe, getting one myself, or friends who got one).

Hi, I just finished my interview with two faculty members. They are interviewing shortlisted applicants and told me that the final decision will be made few weeks later (around late Feb? early March?) . In the meantime, additional interviews could be arranged with other faculty members. That means, I guess, the longlisted applicants may have to wait for a month to hear any (positive) update.
DoktorDoktor Posted February 6, 2020 Posted February 6, 2020 Has anyone heard from Columbia or CMU for Quant Marketing?

I also got the interview from GIT, probably a little bit later than you received email! Good luck to both of us!!!

So when you told the schools you had a deadline they asked whether you would say yes before accepting you? I've gotten some "good looks" but no acceptances. Hopefully that changes by the end of next week. Here's my struggle... let's say the best case scenario happens and I get in! I haven't spoken to students at every school I've applied to yet, and I certainly haven't visited every city. If I have 1-2 weeks to make a decision and end up getting several acceptances what's best practice in making a decision? Do you have a top school in mind already or how are you deciding if you don't mind me asking?
maverick__ Posted February 7, 2020 Posted February 7, 2020 @DoktorDoktor Congratulations on the acceptances!! That is fantastic news. Sounds like you have some big decisions ahead of you. @jash Congrats on the 5 interviews, hope your acceptance emails start rolling in right away. I only applied to 4 programs (probably should have applied to more) so its still crickets on my end. But hopefully next week we all start to get some good news. jash 1

I think that is the case for most major schools in the U.S.
doughdough Posted February 8, 2020 Posted February 8, 2020 Any accounting applicants? i have 99% gmat and 3.9 gpa (from a us school) and been in practice for the past few years. I applied to 13 and heard back from two which I think will give me an offer but my top choices said that i am first on their wait list for interviews / first on their secondary list. i dont even know how secondary lists work like do they extend offers to their primary group then ask me to interview me? They didnt even let me know how many were in their primary group and how many offers they are extending... :(

I think that is the case for most major schools in the U.S. As I understand from the schools and people I've spoken with, they cannot "force" a decision once an offer is extended prior to mid-April. That said, as many of the schools are fighting for the same talent they interview and extend offers to their short list candidates, specifically to those they expect will accept. They often dangle a carrot to accept sooner rather than later so they can move on to their "second tier" applicants and extend offers if needed. Anyone please jump in to correct me if you've heard differently.
