Two faculty interviews via Zoom in early Feb

Invitation to visit campus and meet faculty

2 years' nonprofit work experience, 1 year master's (philosophy)

Did not get an e-mail or phone call. Just checked the website and the results were there. GPA is grad. International student.

Email saying: "We would like to invite you to talk with an alum of our program to hear first-hand experiences of “life at Pardee RAND” and discuss how your interests, experience, and passions might fit with our program. This voluntary conversation would be by phone or in person (e.g., workplace or café), depending on your location, and would be an informal chat of about 30-45 minutes." I also got a second email, dismissing me from the interview because I had a PhD candidate as a reference, so they assumed I already had familiarity with the program.

TPB: did they directly send you an email for interview? Haven't heard anything from them...
