Notre Dame PhD in History

[ttayl715]

I applied to the PhD in history at Notre Dame. I noticed that some people got contacted about doing an interview with them. Does anyone know, do you have to be interviewed in order to be admitted? I know they seem to take a long time to make decisions. I'm just curious.

Yes, when a program does interviews it means that those are the current students of interest. Chances are that if you didn't get a request for an interview you won't be accepted. But perhaps they are still doing interviews. It depends on when people were contacted. If it was today then sit tight. If it was last week then you probably won't receive an interview.

Thanks. Someone posted about getting an interview request a week ago, so I'm not holding my breath.

It's still early. The interview might have been an isolated one.
