Hi all,
I applied to UW-Madison for fall admission. I know that they have had two recruiting weekends, and I was not invited to either. However, I was very relieved when I received an e-mail inviting me for an interview. Of course, I had a scheduling conflict and I politely asked to reschedule, trying my best to convey my sincere interest in the program. The chair of the program responded saying that he would see if another date will work for the faculty.
Did I shoot myself in the foot? If so, is there any way to recover? I am under a lot of pressure, so I think a lot of my worry is compounded by stress. I asked to reschedule a few days ago, but I haven't heard back about whether or not it will be okay.
Also, are interviews scheduled aside from recruiting weekends on an individual basis?
I would appreciate any advice!
