wittyviolin689 Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Hey applicants for MIT IDM! Starting this thread to chat and share updates as we approach the interview period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oybin Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 Hey, looks like a couple of interview requests have been sent out according to this site - but looking through past threads it seems that interviews go on till the end of March and even a few in April. Glued to this thread now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thecodemachine Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 (edited) No update. Waiting. Applied to MIT and Upenn. Got an admit to a similar program at a different school (keeping it anonymous for now). I suspect no interview invites by end of march makes this an easy no.

Eddiek12 Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 Looking at the last year's thread, though the deadline was two weeks later than this year's, I assume the interview invitation will be sent even in April. We still have more than two weeks. Finger crossed for everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parast Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 I am design candidate. also haven't heard anything back from the admissions team. They said that they release final decisions by mid-April.

Could someone please share some inputs about the interview. Edited March 23, 2019 by pratikshachari Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thecodemachine Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 Finally got a decline from Upenn IPD. Huge relief because the waiting/obsessing is super stressful lol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pensivefont Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 In the (unfortunate) event of not getting into this program, are you guys planning on attending a different program, or would you try again next year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sakimama Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 (edited) Having gone through the interview process, would one wonder how it went? Having had answered abstract questions and intent of education, it was a very different experience crossing fingers to know what will happen ahead. Haven't applied to any other program as IDM seemed truly unique. I am not sure how reapplying may help, as it may in most other programs. Here I felt that the evaluation seemed to be of core personality. Edited March 27, 2019 by sakimama Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
