If you applied to Harvard Business School in Round 2, get ready for some big application news from the school tomorrow, on Wednesday, January 31st at noon ET. In a post to the Direct from the Director’s blog, the school shared the following details:
“This Wednesday, January 29, at 12:00 noon Eastern Time, everyone who applied in Round 2—or received a “Further Consideration” decision in Round 1—will receive an update via their Application Status page. There are two possibilities:
Invite to Interview – this is very good news! If you are in this group, you will receive additional information regarding the process on January 29. On January 30 you will be able to choose the date and time for your interview.
Early Release – While we enjoyed getting to know you, we are not able to move you forward in the application process.
Thank you again for the time and effort you put into your applications!”
Of course, MBA LiveWire will light up on Wednesday with applicants reporting their invites. And if there are any snags or delays in the release, reports of those will surely surface on LiveWire as well. You could choose—optimistically—to spend your waiting time preparing for an interview. The Clear Admit HBS Interview Guide can give you an important head start. It’s packed with vital, up-to-date interview preparation guidance, including commonly asked questions and advice on how to form strategy around the post-interview leg of the process.
And as always, remember that the Clear Admit Interview Archive also offers a repository of applicant-submitted details about the interview process.
Best of luck!
