In prior years the program has done 3 rounds of interviews over the course of three weeks and interviews approximately 160 applicants.  I interviewed 10/8-10/9 and there were roughly 80 applicants who participated in the mandatory orientation yesterday morning.  Since invites have been extended for next week, I wonder if they plan to interview all 160 applicants in just two sessions...?

When they send invites, do the all go out at the same time?

Hmmmm, they might. 80 and 80 for the two weeks possibly. How was your interview experience? I interview next week :)

The orientation was wonderful and it was great to have the chance to take a virtual tour and meet in small groups with other applicants and current students.  I really think they did a good job creating an experience that was as much like visiting the campus in person as possible.  There are three 1:1 interviews with different faculty members.  I would say that my experience varied with each individual interview.  Overall, I felt great about it!  Best of luck to you!

Glad the interview went well for you! And thanks for the info!

were all your 1:1 scheduled yesterday, so you didn’t have to login for anything today?

[Halcyon 25]

Actually, no.  All of my 1:1 interviews were this morning.

Yes I got the email this morning!

Does anyone else who just interviewed know how long they take to notify you of an acceptance?

I don't think there's an exact length of time, but it looks like last year people found out between 5-12 days after their interview! So possibly somewhat soon... good luck!

If there are only 2 interview sessions each with ~80 applicants, I’m assuming the odds are slim to none if you haven’t been invited, but when will those not invited for an interview be notified? Would they be notified when decisions are made for the second round of applicants?

[crs92 22]

Just got an interview invite for 1014-10/15! I am beyond excited and thrilled

Best of luck to everyone!

Does someone know what time frame more or less we should start hearing back?

 

I don’t think anyone asked in our first round group (10/8 and 10/9 interviews) and just got accepted to another program and would kill to hear back this coming week.

Does anyone know if they notify applicants if they are rejected? 

[Eri663 4]

Has anyone heard anything from the 10/8-10/9 interview session?

During the interview today they said they will be making their decisions within the next 2-4 weeks. I’m not sure if that applies to everyone or our interview group.

Great question, I have not heard rejection or an interview opportunity yet. I just emailed the program to see if I could get an update on my application status and to see if they will send correspondence for rejections. I will update my response when I get it!

I’m on the same boat. Please let us know if you hear anything.
