@Neurophilic I had a pre-interview with my POI last week at UTSC, faculty got together on Friday to decide who will be invited to official interviews held next week. I haven't heard back yet!
Congrats!
I also applied to UTSC and was wondering if the invite to the SKYPE interview was sent by your POI or by the graduate admissions. Asking since I received an interview invite at SFU sent by the grad admissions (they sent out an mass invite). If the UTSC invite was sent by the POI it still gives me hope.
Thanks!
