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) Are you applying to USC Marshall? I am a strategy applicant as well but I haven't heard back from them... I saw some rejects for OB, but nothing for strategy yet
maverick__ Posted February 29, 2020 Posted February 29, 2020 I hadn't heard anything and was gearing up for 2021 applications, and then yesterday I found out I was accepted into one of my top programs ? So hang in there everyone, silence isn't necessarily a negative. There is still time. UC Irvine is taking forever.... I don't know if I'll wait it out, this other program made a great offer, and it seems fair that they would want a response right away. Best of luck on everyone's decisions, and for those of you still waiting to hear back, there's still hope. ?

I am waiting to hear back from UC Irvine - Marketing, UC Berkeley and VCU. I hearc VCU has sent out acceptance. Since it has been so silent for me, I am expecting rejects from these 3 programs. maverick__ 1

We're going to grad school wooo - maybe we'll all meet up at conferences one day Best of luck all! usphd1920 and maverick__ 2
maverick__ Posted March 1, 2020 Posted March 1, 2020 Thanks @Dfrost @usphd1920 @jash! Once this waiting period is behind us, we can look forward to moving and starting our graduate programs. This has been such a great community through the turbulent application process. It would certainly be great to meet up at a conference one day. ? In the meantime, I will post an update if I hear anything from UC Irvine as I know a number of us are still waiting to hear back. Congrats again to everyone who has been accepted to 1+ of their top programs! ?? usphd1920 and mgmtphd 2
ardra Posted March 3, 2020 Posted March 3, 2020 Hey guys, Has anyone heard back from Umich Ross - Strategy? Either rejects or interviews or shortlists? Appreciate any responses. Thanks.
Dfrost Posted March 7, 2020 Posted March 7, 2020 Well BU finally got around to rejecting me. Also, I turned down an FSU offer if any strategy applicants are wait listed there
Mandeville Posted March 7, 2020 Posted March 7, 2020 Has anyone hear back from Minnesota yet for Marketing? I know they said there would be a delay due to one of the program leads being out of country, but it’s been pretty long now.
Bigredbear Posted March 7, 2020 Posted March 7, 2020 How's the process going for everyone? I accepted an offer yesterday and I'm glad it's finally over
jash Posted March 8, 2020 Posted March 8, 2020 Same! Feels good but now I'm nervous about the next 5 years lol We've got this!

Have one offer from a lower ranked school, though still a good option. I feel good about where I'm at though. Congrats on BC, they are a great school. Are you interested in qualitative research?

You interviewed with some great programs. I actually didnt make it to the interview with Ross haha. Hopefully you hear positive news from at least one. And yeah, I think qualitative research is really cool. The main thing that made my decision was how great my experience with the faculty and students at BC was

I definitely saw great variation between schools with my experience among both faculty and students. What stood out to you at BC over some other schools you visited? Any red flags you saw at some schools?
Chocolate77 Posted March 11, 2020 Posted March 11, 2020 Hey guys! Wondering if anybody here received an offer from CMU marketing CB? I'm waitlisted and am wondering what my chances may be! Really appreciate any response and congrats to all with ideal offers!!
Whitley Posted March 16, 2020 Posted March 16, 2020 Does anyone hear from the Finance PhD Program at U of Oklahoma? This is the only program I haven't heard anything yet. I know they did interviews early February, but wondering if they've sent out all offers.
maverick__ Posted March 20, 2020 Posted March 20, 2020 Anyone else concerned COVID-19 will affect fall admissions?? ? usphd1920 1
usphd1920 Posted March 27, 2020 Author Posted March 27, 2020 It's still March. There is still time till April - May to make decisions. I read in some forums that IIT has given Fall 20 Masters students to either defer till Spring/Fall 21 or to do Fall 20 online and in class later. But I think many universities are still waiting and watching before they make any move..
maverick__ Posted April 3, 2020 Posted April 3, 2020 @usphd1920 thanks for sharing your insight. I am really hoping we're still able to begin our programs this fall ? Has anyone else heard if COVID-19 is impacting start dates?
