I applied to Ph.D. programs in Social Psychology. I applied at Northwestern and really wanted to work with this one professor. We had been emailing over the summer and throughout the fall semester. Our research interested matched nearly perfectly, and I feel that I have relatively good stats for the program. I am pretty sure that the program has sent out interview invitations, and I am really sad and kind of shocked that I did not hear from the researcher.
I was thinking about emailing him (since we've emailed before) and just asking about it - telling him that I was really looking forward to possibly working with him and loved the program at Northwestern. I just wanted to ask him if he had sent out interview invitations.. etc.
Is it weird to do this?? Should I not email him or is it okay to do that?
Weird to contact POI applied to if have not heard?
