I saw you didn't even get a video invite. I honestly mean no offence but what were you expecting? ?
LMAO, savage.

Do you know when their video is due? I thought all immersion weekend invites would be sent the 26th. Maybe that's the last day to receive a video invite?
It would be interesting if they gave some people less time than others.
Yep, their video is due at 1PM PST on Monday. They got a shorter time than we did.

Did anyone receive an invitation to submit the video recently, I mean from Jan 10th to now ?
Is is possible to get invited to interview without being asked to submit the video?
I haven't heard of anyone who has received a video invite since January 4 so unsure on that front; however, I do know you can't make Immersion Weekend without first going through the video portion.

Hey everyone,
I've reached out to some of you individually (and thank you to those who responded)! I find that industrial design or design engineering is talked about little across some of these forums, and even less so about portfolios. Does anyone want to do portfolio reviews and/or comparisons?
Feel free to DM me if you want to exchange portfolios! Or if you're more comfortable for more people to see your work, feel free to post below.
Edit: For context, I was able to get an invitation to the video portion of the Stanford Knight-Hennessy scholarship applying to their Design Impact program (haven't heard from them directly though) so I think I can be of some help in terms of what I did.Edit 2: I applied to Stanford, Brown, Harvard, CMU, and JHU this cycle for industrial design/design engineering programs. I haven't heard from any schools about a decision but have received an interview for JHU (as of 16/1).
Edit 3: Maybe for more focused feedback, maybe also comment what program you applied for and if there were particular portfolio constraints (e.g., number of projects, page limit, online etc.) -

Anyone else apply for Harvard MDE this year? Thought the process was more holistic than most.

Hi all, I started this topic for Stanford Design Impact program. I submitted my application before Dec 1, but still haven't heard anything yet, I saw someone got an interview already.
How long did you have to wait to hear back from them? Was it successful?

Currently waiting on a decision, but haven't received any traffic to my online portfolio from the US. Anyone else waiting for a response?

I have seen that the interview invite is on rolling basis, so I hope that there is still a chance we get an interview invite. Is the fact of not receiving the interview invite eliminatory ? Is it an obligation to do an interview in order to go to the next step ?
I know they say it's on a rolling basis, but I personally don't believe that it is the case given the large diversity of programs that have already had K-H invites. The rolling basis also doesn't affect me as much so I don't have much at stake in it being true or not. You'll need to get the video invite to go to the next step, which is immersion weekend.

That’s useful, thanks and good luck!
Just wondering, when did you receive an invite to your PhD interview?
I haven't received an interview for my program yet, but I also applied for a Master program.

Hey @MediaMonkeysame here!! Just got my invite to cancer bio on Friday so I’m hopeful that maybe I’ll get a video submission request in the next few weeks. Otherwise still super excited to even have the chance to interview for a PhD at Stanford!! Is there a final date when they’ll let us know about the virtual interview weekend?
January 26 is the last day I know of, but my video is due on the 14th if that helps.

Did you find any equivalent-ish programs?

Within UX, what are your goals after graduation? I can review your portfolio and give you some tips as it'll be the most important part of your application (free of charge). Hard to give you an answer with just the information you have provided.
