Got an interview invite today evening. Alhamdillulah.

I am based in Mumbai, will be in Hyd for the interview.
PSA based on the invite e-mail
1 - Interviews for early decision scheduled b/w Oct 22-31 only, decision by Nov 10
2 - I have to communicate my location preference(Hyd/Skype) by tomo, Oct 19 - which means tomo is probably the last day they will send out early decision invites.

I think you should write to the school. Good idea to get such details confirmed. If I were you, I would have written to the school.

The period between submitting the application and waiting for an interview invite is full of ANXIETY.

With this early decision stuff coming in, the ANXIETY game rises up and there is no end to this!

With no interview in my kitty, all I can do is play along and wait.

The game of disappointment takes a lot of time to sink in.

Hoping for the best!!!

They didn't get back to me by email after I gave them my preference. However they did call me up today asking if I could make it to Hyderabad this weekend. I told them I couldn't, and they said they'd notify me of my interview date via email in a few days.

Also, I was never asked to confirm my date and venue when they sent me the shortlist email. All they asked for was a preference between Skype and an in-person interview.

EDIT: In-person interview in Hyderabad

I think they would have mentioned an interview window. For me it was 22nd Oct to Nov 4th, for some other person I saw it to be different.
I had replied back with date and venue, both. Since you didn't mention any specific date of preference, they'd have given a follow up call ...

My interpretation, which is based on several forum posts, is that aspirants who have submitted their applications, along with the evaluations, on or before 14th have mostly received interview calls on early decision basis.
