If not, can someone that is organic and receives an interview post about it here whenever they do? Desperately wanting to know if I will get an interview or not lol, I can't play this waiting game I'm organic, I got an email invite for Caltech interviews today.

littleberber Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 Oh boy, that got me scared. I'm organic too. Do you think they will send out interview invitation through the day today or they sent them out the same time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be better if they just tell us we were not selected and reject us. Hate this waiting game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VenomMan35 Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 How long should I give it before I get nervous? I’ve heard back about one school but some others people have mentioned (UCSD, UC Berkeley, UWMadison) I applied to and haven’t heard back. I just don’t know how close they sent acceptances out to know when to get worried Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From their email it seems like they contacted everyone at once I think there are empty slots because they offered more time slots than interviewees in case of time conflicts (there are like 4 slots left I think). But I could be very wrong about this. You could also contact their admissions coordinator who can probably give you a definite answer Edited January 8, 2022 by chemnerd101 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
