I would say two weeks after the last interview date is enough time for them to have decided on initial offers. I'm interested to hear what kind of notification timelines folks have been given, though, because some schools may have longer processes or more red tape.

Was told live that the dept meets in a week then it's out of their hands for final approval, but hopefully not too long thereafter.

He was confirmed as reviewing applicants per the application form itself.

I'm shocked to read in this thread that some applicants applied to 15-20+ schools! I heard about this phenomenon, but didn't think it was prevalent. I struggled to find 6 programs that were strong matches. I totally understand applying to a zillion places to try to improve the odds of admission. But, wow - if this trend continues the number of applicants to each program almost certainly will impact the amount of time that committees can spend on individual review. The field has to figure out a better way of getting the right applicants to the right programs. The current system and trends in admissions are not sustainable.

Rejections always sting! This year is my second time applying after taking almost 10 years to train and work since my last attempt at applying coming out of undergrad. So far I have received 1 interview invitation to one of my top choice programs (great fit with program and POI) and all other rejections/assumed rejections so far. I'm hopeful that one other program that seems like a no-brainer/great fit will invite me to interview (they notoriously invite later, in Feb). It only takes 1! Many doors close, some open, some are ajar.... it takes time and persistence but we will all get to the right places for each us! Oh and you bet that I am preparing to the max for that interview.

Spoke too soon. Looks like someone just posted about their invitation.

As this point I'm guessing Fordham is not going to make their aspirational timeline of sending out invites today.

I saw on the results page that 1 person got an email from HPCS at CUNY. Did anyone else? Trying to figure out if it was a mass email or if I still have a chance of getting an interview. This waiting thing sucks!! 

Haven't heard anything from HPCS either. If I see several interviews (n>2) posted on the results list and a week follows without hearing from them, I will assume I'm out.
