I have not heard back yet, but I received their last email at 4:55pm so maybe this will be similar?

UPDATE: just received my confirmation

Just heard back as well! Anyone know what the interview is going to be like / if we have a writing sample?

I’m not sure of the interview process other than that the actual interview is with 2 faculty members!

Yes, the schedule is in the body of the email at the bottom. It's has some interesting formatting...

Bringing this thread back - how are you all prepping for the upcoming interviews? Looking at anything special or just general grad school interview questions?

I'm just looking at some general questions. Does anyone know what the interview will be like? Is it more of a chatting get-to-know-you type, or problem solving and conflict resolution questions? I mean what can you talk about it 12 min?!

From what I've heard from friends, it's a mix of get to know you and problem-solving questions. It's mainly focused on how you can articulately and genuinely answer questions without necessarily being perfect.

I have been prepping with general interview questions as well as focusing on situational questions. I had an interview last week and was asked several “Tell me about a time...” questions

I had the interview today and it was very relaxed. Interview questions were not hard they just wanted to get to know you!  Everyone was friendly and welcome. No need to stress too much about it! And you don’t need to bring anything!
