University of Houston Mass Interview Email

[sjcslp]

So this morning Houston sent out the interview invite to every applicant and then recalled the message, stating error on their part. Dr. Ivey emailed everyone saying that not getting an interview does not indicate a rejection, but wasn’t very clear on if we were absolutely not getting an interview. I couldn’t tell if she mass emailed everyone or if she only emailed those who the original email was not supposed to go to. Does anyone know if they sent out a new interview email as of yet? Thank you!!

I was wondering the same! The email wasn't clear about whether or not we were actually invited to interview, but when I clicked on the link to the doodle pool to check possible interview slots, it had been deactivated. I understand this to mean that I have not been invited for an interview, but am still nervously checking my email every few minutes for an update.

I saw that the poll had been deactivated too, but I get the feeling that they likely just deactivated it in general and made a new one all together, which makes me think an entirely new email was sent out to those getting interviews. I want to email Dr. Ivey just to confirm but I’m sure she also got a bunch of emails about this and I don’t want to be another panicked applicant in her inbox hahaha plus I heard the interview is really just for funding? And it doesn’t actually impact the admission decision

Very true about them generating a brand new email to those interviewing. I was also considering reaching out, but Dr. Ivey & the program coordinator have probably received a ton of confused emails from other stressed out applicants in response to the clarification. Hoping that interviewing doesn't impact the admission decision and that someone with a confirmed interview will shed some light on the email situation this am.

yes, a new interview link was sent out ~15 mins after the original email

I applied to UH and have yet to receive any emails from them.
