According to their website they do not do interviews! I feel like they received a ton of applications this year, and need a couple extra weeks to sort it all out. Thanks for reaching out to them!

That's good to know. Thank you!

Has anyone contacted the UT Austin English graduate coordinator about the notification date yet? (It seems like my portal has changed from something like "under review" to "Forwarded to graduate committee for review," with instructions to follow up with the coordinator about decision date questions.)

Hi! I reached out to the graduate coordinator and got the following: 

The Admissions Committee is deep in deliberation and review of all applications at this present time. While there is no specific date for final results, we do hope to have decisions made within the next couple of weeks.

I'm hoping that's a good thing rather than bad! Does anyone know whether or not Austin typically has interviews? I've seen a few people mention they've had informal phone conversations, and it's making me a bit nervous.
