So is the notification date for most school a notify ON or notify BY date? I applied Round 1 to Harvard, Wharton and Columbia. I'm just curious if it is possible to hear back early from schools. I also noticed that Columbia really only has a deadline for ED not regular decision. Any thoughts on how long it would take to hear back from them since there isn't a notify by date?
I'm a little more concerned if I apply early in Round 2 to any schools. Working on my application for Kellogg right not and might apply to Tuck as well. However in mid-January I have to commit to either work until 2014 or go to school the summer of 2012. That's perfect if I get accepted at 1 of the 3 I just applied to but if it comes down to the second round most of those notification dates are too late. Is there any chance if I applied in the next few weeks (well early for round 2) I could hear back early?
