They already have more than enough interviewees to comprise a solid class of students, I doubt they're going to inivite anymore. I've made my peace with a rejection. I'd love to be proven wrong though. 24 minutes ago, mdplsacceptme said: I'm thinking the same thing...still not sure why they can't send out rejections though...even a computer can do that for them I called today and the guy said more invites should be sent by the end of today or maybe tomorrow LOL Let's see what actually happens though...

But I may have angered the interview gods cause I just got slapped with an R a few moments ago while I thought it was Sunday before I even saw your reply. It all felt too prophetic. At least now we know and aren’t holding our breath any longer. hijkl 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I know there was a wave of rejections on one day and two days later another. However there were a few interviews invitations as well. Take a look at the 2019 thread !

ChocolateMed 49 Posted March 16, 2020 Report Share Posted March 16, 2020 Just called them. They said emails will be sent out throughout this week. The majority of the emails will be sent out today, tomorrow, and Wednesday. I asked if the delay was due to COVID-19, and he said that this is the normal timeline for them.

James kingston 1 Posted March 17, 2020 Report Share Posted March 17, 2020 I've noticed people on the invite/regret page differentiating between paid and volunteer research. Does it really matter? I thought the end goal was the experience and hopefully a publication. Wouldn't a publication as a volunteer be a bit more impressive? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TheWayIAre 50 Posted March 17, 2020 Report Share Posted March 17, 2020 Less than 2 weeks to the last interview day, admissions office is closed, rejection waves are already coming out... There's no possible way there are still more interview invites to go around. I'd be glad to be wrong, but I think it's over... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think the definite end is by Wednesday evening this week (which is supposedly what the ad coms said). If we don't hear back by then assume it is an R, because this Friday (Mar 20) they will have a practice for ALL applicants to test the interview technology.

So phone calls will not be attended. Otherwise the interviewees for March 28/29 would not have received an email today in regards to the online interviews if the office was not doing any work. So emails to those still waiting *could* come out today. 88risingsun 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ohvalleyofplenty 9 Posted March 17, 2020 Report Share Posted March 17, 2020 I contacted admissions by email and they replied saying that interview invites and refusals are continuing to be sent out this week, and that they may continue email invitations during the week leading up to the interview date. If you haven't heard back yet your application is still under consideration... Ugh such a long wait... FYI if it matters at all, I'm a grad applicant with a 3.8+ GPA.
