This week HBS and Wharton provided important updates for applicants on their blogs. For anyone who is currently waiting to hear back from HBS or Wharton, the next couple of weeks figure to be an important time. And, if you're on the waitlist at HBS, you may have some good news coming soon.
On the HBS admissions blog, Dee Leopold provided an update for applicants in all three admissions rounds. She wrote:
Round One Waitlist - We will be extending offers of admission to about 40 round one waitlisters shortly after April 2. We will continue to maintain a waitlist and Eileen Chang will send out an update in early April.
Round Two Notification - April 2 is the notification date. All decisions will be released online - you will receive an email instructing you to check your status. We won't be making any congratulatory phone calls in advance of April 2!
Round Three Interview Invitations - Many, but not all, will go out on April 3.
Meanwhile, over at the Wharton blog, the admissions team posted an update specifically for the school's Round 2 applicants:
All Round 2 applicants who were invited for interviews: you will receive your admissions decision tomorrow. You may check your decision status at that time through your online application. We will also make every effort to contact all new admits via telephone or e-mail.
Return here tomorrow for an announcement that decisions have been released and for more details...
Good luck to everyone!
Note that the Wharton blog post was written yesterday, meaning that by now many of you should have heard from Wharton... Hopefully you got good news!
