Hi All,

Late winter / early spring means its admissions decisions time for many of you. We wish you luck, and hope everyone is getting in to their programs of choice for the 2010-11 academic year!

Perhaps it's the perfect time to announce the launch of our new "AppTracker" tool.

AppTracker lets registered FIND MBA users to share their application status for the MBA programs they are applying to. It also lets them see how other users are doing in the application process: Who else is interested in the same program? Who else has applied? Who has received an admissions decision from the school? Who is going to that school?

AppTracker is a tab in every users' account ("My Account"). There, users can share some information about themselves, such as country of origin, work experience, and GMAT score. Then users can enter and update information about the applications they have sent out.

We're very happy that some savvy users have already begun to use AppTracker (even before the formal launch!).

We built this tool to further strengthen the community of future MBA students here by giving users yet another opportunity to connect, share info, and network with others. Of course, the usefulness of this tool depends largely on the honesty of those using it.

We would also like to say that this feature is still a work in progress. Like for the rest of FIND MBA, if you have suggestions for ways we can improve it, please let us know.

Again, the best of luck with your applications decisions and picking the right program!

Take care,
Maren
