It sounds like in previous cycles people heard back as early as September regarding interviews, is that not the case this cycle?

I spoke to an admissions officer and he said it's kinda like a rolling admissions. 2 people have to read through your app before they contact you and it just depends where you are on the pile. Don't worry if you haven't heard anything yet (i haven't) he said they will send invites through Dec.

From looking at the last cycle's forum, it looks like they send out interview invites around 3 weeks before each interview date.

The first interview date is in less than 3 weeks. Shouldn’t we should expect the first invites to come out already?

Maybe the first interview dates are for IS students only?
 
last year they did oos student earlier and then instate and contract last… not sure if they will do that again or not

Did anyone who received a snail mail interview invite have their portal status change?

Mine still shows application review. I haven't received the follow up email yet either though.

Does anyone know in past cycles how long it took to get the follow up e-mail? I'm nervous because their first interview date is the same date as TAMU's interview.

Last year I got the email before I got the snail mail.

i wonder when they will announce who has the first date bc its come up really soon
 
I’m assuming that since we’re the first wave of invites we will be the first interview date on the 15th. But i’m really hoping that they send the email soon because i need to request off work and book flights and a hotel

That makes me so nervous, I wonder if they would allow me to do another date due to the conflict with TAMU... I know they said we wouldn't be able to pick or change our dates though.
 
Just got my email saying I've been selected for the December 15th interview! Would love to meet any of you all there :)
