Here’s a quick overview of essential information for all our Round 2 applicants:

If your online account reads “Complete for Round 2,” your application has all the required materials, has been processed by the Operations Team, and has been forwarded to the Admissions Committee for review.

If your online account reads “Received,” then the Operations Team needs to process your online application and any materials submitted by hard copy. Operations is emailing all applicants with this a “Received” status to notify them of what information is missing.

Interviews are by invitation only, after a thorough review of an application. Invitations are released daily and will continue to be released until 5:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time (EST) on Thursday, February 16^th. Candidates who are not invited for an interview by February 16^th will be notified that they are no longer being considered for admission.

Due to the nature and complexity of the admissions process, there is no particular order in which invitations are released.
