Received an email on March 29th from the director stating that they will be making decisions for offers in the next few weeks. The gist of the email was saying they would contact me regardless of what happens (If it was for an interview or if they had filled their incoming class). Anxious to know based on the poster below that they have already interviewed people for first offers. I had reached out to a PI after submitting my application expressing interest in their work, which prompted the director to email me this information and to acknowledge the email I sent to the PI. Who knows what will happen!
