Peeps I made this info list for my universities from their respective websites about a month ago. So have a look at it and let me know if it's helpful or needs corrections (I don't know about some universities, so help me out with that) University - notification dates - interview dates Texas - Feb - 7,23,27,29 March & 6 April Minnesota - Jan end - ? Oklahoma - 2nd, 3rd weeks of Jan - ? UBC - early to mid Feb - ? Toronto - ? - March & April Indiana - 23 Jan - Feb Arcadia - mid Feb - late Feb to early April Cincinnati - Feb, March - Feb to April Virginia - mid Jan to Feb end - March Wisconsin - ? - ? Pittsburgh - late Jan to early March - Feb end to April

It is a really stressed time. I thought being a re-applicant would mean less stress, having done this before, but it hasn't been the case at all. I have started exercising more and am trying meditation. Meditation does work but only for a little while in the beginning. Whenever I feel the urge to check my email for the nth time, I simply breathe once deeply, remind myself of the date and the present moment and that seems to calm me down. Usually while being stressed the dates and days are all a blur and I get caught up in a limbo. So I try to bring myself back to the facts and logically explain myself.

Hi guys. I am a re-applicant from India. I had applied to 7 programs last year and got interviewed by 2 universities, - rejected by 1, waitlisted and then rejected by the 2nd. This year I have applied to 11 programs. As I am an international applicant, I cannot afford to be present at the interviews in-person. So I requested and interviewed via Skype last year and will be doing the same this year too. Among other factors which might have affected my admission chances last year, I feel that this Skype interview requirement from my side could be an important factor. I am starting to stress over this issue. Could any of you please share your Skype interview experiences and what you feel about it maybe being a factor in getting interview offers?
