Hey everyone just wanted to start a thread on this to see if anyone has heard back yet. I know the program is set to start in November but it's already mid-October and me nor my friends have heard anything.
Some color on the process would be great/what this year might look like. Does it mean a guaranteed interview/SD?

just got acceptance today
What’d the email say?
Did it update your portal? I have no email but my portal says under review, should I just assume rejected?
I received the acceptance yesterday as well, and my portal still indicates "under review." In my email, they said this was the largest application pool to date. It's essential to understand that there are tens of thousands of resumes for one program, with only 150 IBD seats available. 20% of the 150 will receive a superday based on previous classes.
not much about the program just dates of important events
Does it say what division you got into? Any idea of the competitiveness of the program this year and whether it guarantees a superday?
They haven’t told us yet. But for superday guarantee definitely not. Maybe for select people they really end up liking.
Haven't heard back but seems like ppl have?
Don't get discouraged; keep your networking high, and you will be fine for recruiting.
