Phone call/interview

12 total got interview invites

stunned. thought it was too early for admits but got a call from DGS! he said that some admits are being notified early. dream school.

I posted here when I was informed about the interview. They told me that they would interview twice as many as the number they would accept this year. They will get back to me in a couple of weeks.

To the International student who was interviewed below: Please keep me posted if you are admitted!! I thought whether he likes your background or he serves for the committee this year.

Email from POI. Sounds more informal than formal.

E-mail to arrange an interview soon. The professor who sent the e-mail was not mentioned in the letter. Any idea why he wants an interview? He wants to be the advisor or does the interviews for the comittee?
