Leon Posted February 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 I was just going to say....sooooo they're sending out invites after work hours? I doubt that. No I'm sure it's legit. This happened last year too and I know for a fact that Admissions works extra hours. It was funny because last year everyone assumed e-mails stopped at 5pm and then they started to come in past that time and no one know when it was "safe" to no longer check their e-mail anymore, hah.

I figured it was some sort of internet/automated system-related delay in emailing or something. Especially since I know of people receiving invites from US schools at MIDNIGHT on a SUNDAY....lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially since I know of people receiving invites from US schools at MIDNIGHT on a SUNDAY....lol They were definitely in the office past 7pm tonight. Once I confirmed my invitation (received after 6pm), Leslie Taylor personally responded within 5 minutes. They kept sending out invites past that point as well given the 7:30ish invite on the boards. No invites for March 29th or 30th yet, so fingers crossed for everyone still waiting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hockeynut Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 Well rsun still you and me waiting. At least we have each other (some classic Canadian rock) All these March 2nd invites means there still a fair share to go out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomato1234 Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 I requested not to receive these interview dates, but it still makes me nervous not to hear anything lol... Can you actually request this ahead of time even though you don't know whether you will receive one or not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
med-dream Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 Well rsun still you and me waiting. At least we have each other (some classic Canadian rock) All these March 2nd invites means there still a fair share to go out. So far there are still more than 30 people on line everyday, that means we are not alone:p If invite comes at the end of March, that would be better for me as I 'm from the west coast.

seagull Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 I'll second that Same here!

And anxiously, compulsively checking email. The weekend will be a nice relief because there'll be no point checking email. Or will there?!? Haha who knows judging by how late they've been staying outside of normal work hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hockeynut Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 It appears they're still online sending out invites for the first week of March. So there's still ~160 left. I imagine they're staying late to get them out asap as the interview would be on the 2nd. @Savac maybe they are planning on an extra weekend/day? ( I imagine it'd be an extra day not weekend. with 80 people/day they will be sitting at ~560 with the dates they already have) Enough math, back to studying for my midterms next week. Nice to see some other people still waiting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice to see some other people still waiting I would argue that there are still quite a few March 2nd interviews to be sent out. At least 1/4 of them. I would say ~180 invites still left.

Savac Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 Can you actually request this ahead of time even though you don't know whether you will receive one or not? Of course you can request this! It's way easier for them from an administrative point of view. Interview conflicts can be tricky to fix, but this prevents the problem before it even happens. I actually requested this last year as well (never received an interview, but it was good to know that I wasn't going to get a conflict) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No news is good news at this point. Maybe we could predict in another way: everyone, who is waiting here, states his/her GPA to see how low or high comparing to the invited ones???
