I thought you were going to France/Shanghai for it. Wasn't that the case ?

Yup, that was the case. But as I mentioned in an earlier comment that I would try and opt for a Skype interview, given personal circumstances, which MIT kindly agreed to.
This interview is not fair at all ! Most of the people have circumstances that will not let them travel to do an interview. ! each at least need to pay +1000$ just for Visa and Hotel and Ticket ! and now they allow student to arrange Skype interview !

Skype was always an option. If you had taken the time to ask, they would have told you it was 'highly recomended' and 'under extentuating circumstances', but never will they say it was out of question.
some ppl already posted in the tracker that they get rejected !

I think those people are just the people that didn't get an interview?

They are much less quant, Wash U MS Finance and U of Rochester MS Finance.
Same for me. Guess just have to wait and be patient. Good luck to you!

1. Was 124 and 127 last two years, and the size has been continuously increasing, so I guess at least 127. (# of admitted was 175 during the last two years.)
2. MIT said three times the # of admitted were invited to interview last year, so assuming increased number of applicants, about 3~4 times the # of admitted.
3. Absolutely no early decision or "hint".

Yeah but the yield rates will definitely be better this time due to the in persona interview. I am not sure whether they will factor this in their calculations when announcing the results.
If I had to place bets I would put the number at around 150 admits, assuming a modest 10% improvement in yield.

Considering there is only one round of interview, I expect the number of applicants to decrease substantially; let's not forget that throughout the years, MIT held two rounds of interviews - and sometimes three.

Dear All,
One week before the official decisions (and phone calls) from MIT's AdCom. I was wandering if anyone knows if a wait-list exists for this program instead of just a YES or NO.
1) Anyone here has any experience/knowledge if such a list exists?
2) I assume if MIT does not call on March 10th you are OUT?
Regards,
