To the person 3 posts down who has an unofficial interview: what are the initials of the POI? Would love to know if I’m still in the running

Informal phone interview with POI (AF)

To those who have applied to Stanford's psychology program, does your application status on ApplyWeb say "incomplete" even though everything is submitted?

To poster below: I think most POIs do skype interviews if they want to discuss research overlap, which they use in deciding who to bring to campus. The department isn't meeting until Jan, so POIs might still do interviews in the first two weeks of Jan.

Thank you to the below for answering. Do you know if everyone who’s offered an official interview also has a preliminary Skype interview? Wondering, because at this point I haven’t had one.

To poster below: I had an informal Skype interview with my POI last week. They said the department is meeting in the first week of January and official interview invitations will go out by the second week of January.

Emailed for Skype Interview with POI

Unofficial Skype interview on 1/3 -- had no idea why I was picked as I made some major mistakes in my SoP that I only discovered after submitting my apps.

My POI said I was not invited to interview weekend because they couldn't invite many people, but I still might be offered admission since not all interviewees will accept their offer.

Email from professor to set up a phone interview

I received an email today from the graduate program coordinator stating that I was not selected for the in-person campus interview.

E-mailed by both POIs to inform me that I was placed on a short-list of candidates being considered for the program, and to set up phone-calls to further discuss my application and research interests. They indicated that I should know the final decision by January 15th. Very excited and hopeful!

I received an email from my POI and had a skype interview. They said official invitations for visit/interview day will come in the first or second week of January.

Preliminary Skype interview this week.
