I will continue to delude myself into believing that "mid-November" hasn't come until the second to last second in the month. However objectively I could see Mid-November most likely to be last Friday, potentially this Friday. I think it would be healthier to move on than impulsively and regularly check my email and refresh livewire. Can someone confirm that we are past "Mid-November"?

FYI a user on Reddit shared that they called admissions last week and said they’re still sending out invites this week. I’m taking it with a grain of salt but will be checking until the end of this week. (4)

anon84593 Likes Earned: 13 Hi haha I’m the one who called- it was last Friday around noon EST and I was like I’ll at least call to have some peace. The woman who answered was kind and said they were still reviewing, and that it would be about a week more of invites. I think there have probably been “delays” with the new director, and the increased volume of apps. Just an FYI it looks like the remaining interviews are w adcom, which makes sense given how close we are to the deadline. Fingers crossed for everyone. The waiting has been terrible. (6)

anon10057 Likes Earned: 81 I gave up in looking for a GSB interview invite last week. I am about to give up on Kellogg as well because I have not received an interview invite from them either. Kellogg and the GSB are the only 2 schools I have not received interview invites from. (2)

inertiae Likes Earned: 16 TBH, I've always had this feeling: they could be saving the best for the last. Your profile, 4.0 775 URM, just corroborated my belief. Could be wishful thinking but somehow I feel it's true. Let's find out soon. (4)

bluerocks Likes Earned: 3 Definitely holes in the application I didn't advertise 1) Did not hire an admissions consultant. Essays are very light-hearted and have a plethora of math and economics jokes which could easily been seen negatively. 2) 23 right now, very young 3) asked the CFO to write my letter of Rec and he is honest enough to not rate me highly since we've only worked together on one project. Having the rejection would definitely be fair from the essays, age, or recommenders. I know its painful refreshing our emails and clearadmit several times a day to never see anything but let's not give up hope guys! It's not Mid-November until they say so explicitly or December 1st comes! (3)

eliot Verified User. Likes Earned: 1919 Thanks for your note. Hopefully you hear interview news from GSB soon. By the way, I did a quick search on LiveWire to see when Stanford GSB interviews were issued last year. (I selected 'Stanford', 'Round 1', "interview invite'). The results show that November 18, 2023 was the last Stanford GSB Round 1 interview invite posted on LiveWire. Given the information that anon84593 shared above, it sounds like Stanford GSB will still be sending out the remaining interview invitations this week. Good luck to everyone waiting to hear from Stanford GSB. (4)
