The information session today said they’d done a few interviews, they said 15-20 interviews complete with an expected cohort of 100-120

Good use of time to attend info session to get these data. Appreciate you sharing with us.

I’ll have to credit my mum! I was stuck in traffic on the M25

Is that 15-20 offers being sent out of 100-120 or only 15-20 interviews invites sent out?

I believe it was 15-20 interviews completed by that admissions officer. From what I was told, there are two admissions officers, both may be doing the interviews and I’m unsure how many, if any, the other has completed.

It does not sound like they are very far along in their process. Given decisions are w/c 4th March, I think it is safe to assume that they will be carrying them out next week.

A side note - there was some subtle emphasis that the programme will have more quant focus than traditional finance programmes. From what I have read, it may be along the lines of MIT (I know very little about that programme so could be off the mark).

Thanks for the info, was much needed. Also, are you sure that the decisions will be given by the 4th of March? As far as I recall they said the decision timeline is till march end.

I have not seen many people posting that they got an interview invite from booth. Is there a separate thread on this that I am missing? What’s the status right now?

I’ve not heard of any one either, so haven’t let me hopes drop too low yet

Did my interview on Feb 9th. I've seen a couple interviews been sent out at least 10+ within the last couple of weeks.

It was pretty easy for me, no technical questions. In a Chinese forum.

I have added the Chicago MFin program in the Tracker. Anyone who applied to this new program, please add your timelines to the Tracker. You will be the first admitted class for the program I hope.

 

[mr_british]

Has anyone heard any updates?

@dudepc have you seen much activity on Chinese forums?

@Grumpybear I saw on the CU thread that you may soon be committing to the Chicago MIF programme. What has your timeline been? I cannot see you in the tracker
