Hey guys, I saw this on Clear Admit:
- Invites keep rolling till 3rd week of Feb according to last year data(1)
- I believe they are waiting on Feb 8th deposit deadline. We can expect some activity post that. (5)

So it looks like we should still see some activity. Good luck to all! I am waiting too.

Hi all - I got my interview invite last Friday and have my interview scheduled later in February. Reading through the McDonough interview thread from others that have interviewed it seems that many interviews are conducted by those that are full-time in the AdComs (and not students like many other schools). Does anyone have any advice for me going in? TIA.

Did you check the interview debriefs at the following link? Also, did you get an interview invite?

Do you get to know the interviewer's details in advance or only on the day of the interview?

I did check the debriefs and it seems like a lot of behavioral questions with admissions officers. In this virtual environment, I know things feel a little different so I do not know my interviewer's details just yet. I got a confirmation email with a Zoom link for the date that I signed up. On that debrief email, it does say that interviewer's are assigned at random.

Hi, Georgetown interviews are short and straightforward. You can expect all standard questions, few behavior questions. The only stand-out question is 'which other schools did you apply to?'.

Adcom interviews are much more predictable than Alum interviews as they are very standardized. Usually the interviews last 25-30 minutes including the time given for you to ask questions. Hope this helps.

I got my interview invite for Georgetown on 2/1. Doing it Wednesday of next week. The invite said to schedule it before 2/20.

The only school that gave me a test waiver was Rice. I had a conversation in admissions about it and they said there would be no negative connotations associated with the waiver. They provided me with a waiver after reviewing my transcripts and resume.

Can't really comment on that as this year is the first time the schools have started accepting test waivers. From last year's decision tracker data, I see that people got interviewed till March 13th. So, I guess you still have some time and hope you will hear back from them soon :)

Just found the interview invite sent on Feb.14th from my Gmail -I did check the spam very often however this one appeared in "Promotions", it's automatically filtered out from the main inbox with other ads.
Check your email carefully maybe you will find it too!

Btw, I have three interview options: zoom, women's day, military event. Any insights ?(I tried to schedule women's day,but it was not available)Thanks!

Congrats!! I got my invite the same day as you. Which interview option did you select?

Are you affiliated at all with the military? I also had those 3 options on my invite but assumed they were sending them based on each applicants backgrounds. I mentioned in a part of my application that I was a military spouse so I figured that was why I had that military week as an option.

Best of luck!
