Yes. At least some people have received interview invites. Let’s hang in there; may be it’s on a rolling basis like last year?

if it was all at once, the rejections and waitlists would also have gone out. so hopefully rolling.

It’ll be sent out within 3 days like previous years I believe - so, everyone should know by Friday EOD.

Let's hope so. Supposedly the Consortium deadline was Oct 15th, and Booth joined the consortium and that was the driver to delay the decisions since they would likely need more than 3 days to do the reviews but let's see - maybe they did not get that many apps or they are that fast...

yeah you’re right. The consortium thing complicates stuff. But, one note on CA mentions they’ll roll out all invites this week. Can’t say how trustworthy they are

It’s pretty frustrating these rolling interviews ... adds to the agony unnecessarily 😏
