I just got an email a few hours ago that I got an interview! They're sending me to Philadelphia. I'm not particularly sure why, but since I'm currently overseas they probably picked whatever was most convenient for them.

In the email it said 15% of applicants were offered interviews. I thought I recalled hearing in the past that it was typically 20-25%. Do you think they're cutting back the number of interviews, they had more applicants, or it's just natural variation?

Is anyone else still in the running for this? I got an email on Friday that I'm a finalist!

As for the reduced percentage of interviews this year, when I was at my interview they said that their budget/endowment mean they're offering fewer fellowships this year. :( Historically, it's been 15, but last year it was 12. Last year there were 50 finalists for those 12 fellowships, and this year there are 40 finalists, so I'm guessing there will only be 10 fellowships. I don't like my chances...
