I received an email from two POIs to learn more about my research interests and my potential fit with their doctoral program. Waiting for their final decision.

TTPB: Yeah a bunch of info sci programs share the same timeline for sure. I interviewed at 5 this week. Before actually applying, I scraped interview dates from these kind of programs (UoM, UWash etc) from GradCafe and all were early to mid January. Makes me think this year it's all delayed by a week, and interviews are Mid-Late January.

TTPB: Thank you so much for responding! It is very helpful to hear from fellow applicants to get some information. Knowing something does make it much less stressful, so thank you so much. PS: I observed a similar timeline on other schools (UofM) - Seems that interview invites might get sent out on different days, but all within a span of 1-1.5 weeks.

TPPB: (I am the one who said it was very formal.) I don't know if they are still sending invites. If it's at all helpful, they said I would hear a decision "soon" -- so my guess based on that is that they are NOT still sending invites. On the other hand, the specific timeline could be very POI dependent as I was interviewed by 2 specific POI I listed. Taken together: I'd say give it a week and if no interview invite then it's safe to say they're not sending anymore. Best of luck to you regardless! And I know no information is often more stressful than bad information :/
