Can the people who have gotten interview invites from Penn State please PM their POIs initials please! I've seen a few posts come through and can't tell if they're done sending out invites or not.
I did the same. Email before applying and then applied and then just waited. They have your application so it doesn’t look great to keep following up when you don’t know where they are in the process! The waiting is awful I agree
Most programs won’t send an official rejection until after they’ve actually interviewed, extended offers, and then had those offers accepted. Super frustrating I know! Also I know there are programs that actually don’t send out invites until late January because their interview dates are so late...it’s an endless waiting game
I know this week will be busy with schools extending interview invites so I'm preparing myself for a week of anxiously refreshing my email. Two interviews so far:
School: University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee
Type: Ph.D.
Date of invite: 12/17/2018
Type of invite: Email from POI
Interview date(s): 1/25/2019
School: Virginia Commonwealth University
Type: Ph.D.
Date of invite: 1/1/2019
Type of invite: Email form POI
Interview date(s): 2/15/2019 (Actual date is 1/25, but couldn't make it because of UWM, so this was offered as alternative day)
Feel free to PM for POI names! Good luck to everyone!
Also if anyone who got an interview at UMSL and wouldn’t mind messaging me initials of the PI!! Just trying to end my anxious waiting because it was one of my top. Thanks!!
