Was it for comms? I spoke a colleague who was accepted to their program last year and said they do not have interviews. It also says on their website FAQs that they don't start reviewing applications until February, so I wouldn't worry about it for now.
Hi all! I'm anxiously waiting (haven't heard anything back yet) but it's nice to commiserate with some fellow Comms PHD applicants.
I've applied to Cornell, Penn, USC, UVA Media Studies, UIC, the University of Toronto iSchool, and Concordia. I can also confirm that neither Annenberg school (USC and Penn) does interviews.
Keeping my fingers and toes crossed and rooting for all of you to get into your top schools!
