Good luck everyone Yeh, they said in one of the webinars that they'll move dates around to accommodate extenuating circumstances (including other interviews and religious reasons), unless you get an interview on their last interview day of the cycle.

Good luck everyone Congrats! I got an invite as well and also have a conflict with another interview. I just submitted the form to ask for an accomodation. If we couldn't make that day/time but still wanted to attend the interview at UT, do you know if we should have responded with "yes" or "no" when they asked if we were available for the interview on Feb 6?

They usually don't send rejections out until after the last wave of interview invites, so end of March. I believe last year they sent some out at the end of January/early February but the vast majority were end of March Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I clicked on "No" and explained at the bottom to see if they can fit me in for another date/time. Now I'm worried if I should have clicked on yes in case they interpret the 'no' as a decline to their offer! But at the same time, I didn't click on 'yes' cause I thought I wasn't available that day.

Did you say, yes or no? I have not done yet. I thought I would send them an email first and see what they would say if they reply. I think you should be ok because you have asked for accommodation.
