維他命在灣區的網路日誌

自從12/12丟出柏克萊Haas的MBA線上申請之後，我的MBA申請之路並沒有突然輕鬆了起來，除了還要繼續與不可能的任務史丹佛拼命之外，每天的等待，等待柏克萊的任何訊息，幾乎都要了我的命一般。每天坐在電腦面前，除了緊張還是緊張，回想起自己的essay，總覺得還是缺少了什麼，心裡的壓力真的是非同小可，只希望審判日趕快到來，至少一刀結束這個漫長等待的折磨。以下是最近柏克萊的最新消息：

Dear XXX,

Thank you again for submitting your application for admission to the Berkeley MBA program. We are busy reviewing applications and preparing for the University's winter break, and we want to share some important information with you.

Next week, we will begin extending interview invitations to a small number of Round 1 applicants, and many more invitations will be sent in early January. Moreover, we will continue to send out invitations on a rolling basis through the end of January. Interviews are conducted by invitation only. Since we review the applications within each round in random order, there is no significance to the date on which you may receive an interview invitation. Round 1 applicants from the United States will be invited to interview on campus during our "Super Saturday" event on January 21st, and applicants outside the US will have the opportunity to interview with an alumni interviewer in their home countries. Round 2 applicants will receive interview invitations starting in February.

The last day for on-campus information sessions and class visits in the fall semester was December 9, 2005. Our daily on-campus Information Sessions resume the week of January 16th and our class visitation program and lunches with current MBA students will be available again the week of January 30th. If you wish to schedule a visit, detailed information is available here: http://www.haas.berkeley.edu/MBA/visitation.html.

Please note that the Full-time MBA Admissions Office will be closed for the winter break from December 24 through January 1, and will reopen on January 2, 2006. We will not be able to respond to voicemail or e-mail messages during that time.

Best wishes,

--- The Berkeley MBA Admissions Team
