Thanks for the reply dinesh! This is for the MBA right? Mary Granger told me that sadly the Msc staff is really small and thus can't get back to applicants as quickly.
I sent my applications by October 27th but my status changed to Documents Received only 5 days ago. However, I'm leaving for Hong Kong for the weekend and would have had interviews with IE and the 5 SAI schools in France by next week, so I'm thinking of giving ESAD a call just to ask how my application is coming along. Would you think that'd be ok? I'm sure the admissions people are used to students following up on things right? The R1 decision deadline was supposedly November 21st, but I'm still waiting on my interview call.
