From Yale Admissions Office (zt)

Many applicants are probably wondering what happens after they submit their application. Now that we’re in the midst of reviewing first-round applications, we wanted to give you a glimpse into the admissions review process.

You’ve submitted your application….now what?
        
We are still processing some first-round applications, which can take some time depending on the quantity of materials that need to be assembled into the application and the timing of their arrival. We are working as quickly as possible to complete this process; your status page will be updated as soon as the supplemental materials that we have received are matched to your application. Once an application is ready to review, it receives two independent reads by members of the Admissions Committee before coming to the Committee for a decision.

Interviews
        
An applicant can be invited to interview at any time during the admissions process. Invitations will be sent in the middle and even closer to the end of the round in certain instances. While an interview invitation is certainly a positive sign, it should not be viewed as an indication of your final decision. Roughly 35-40% of our applicant pool is interviewed, and about 35%-40% of individuals who are interviewed receive an offer of admission.

What we’re looking for
        
During the admission process, we take a holistic approach in reviewing applications; no one aspect of an application alone is determinative. We’re looking for candidates not only with strong academic backgrounds and intellectual abilities, but also with the motivation, leadership skills, interpersonal and teamwork abilities, and professional experience that will add to the SOM community. Our goal is to bring together 180 students from diverse backgrounds and industries. It’s important for a successful candidate to be passionate about their future career goals and embody the School’s mission of educating leaders for business and society.

Admissions Decisions
        
All first round candidates will hear from us by January 18, 2008 (second-round candidates will hear by April 4, 2008). Although we try to release decisions as soon as possible, the majority of candidates will likely hear on or a little before the decision deadline. Applications are reviewed in random order, so the timing of your admissions decision is not an indication of the final outcome.

Still have questions?
        
If at any time during the admissions process you have a question, feel free to post on our admissions message board or email mba.admissions@yale.edu. Next month you will also have the unique opportunity to chat with the director of admissions, Bruce DelMonico, in an online chat with BusinessWeek. Participants will have the chance to ask questions about the new integrated curriculum, the application process, or life in New Haven. Mark your calendars for December 11 at 12 p.m. (EST).

This news is not that good, in my opinion.

From their message, you can see the target admission rate is below 16%....  Getting into Yale is kind of more difficult than getting into some M7.
