R2 applicant here, just heard back last week.
Applied: 1/13
Interview invite: 3/16
The only interview time slots are in the last week or two of April.
Question - does anyone have a rough idea on what % of people interviewed generally get accepted? Thanks and good luck to all!
Congrats!!
A large percentage of interviewed applicants at NYU Stern is admitted (NYU sends out less interview invites than other schools). Someone in this thread made the calculation (p. 21) and came up with approx. 60 % of post-interview admits.
Good luck!
Thanks!
I pretty much accepted it was a ding when I saw that people who applied around the same time as me were getting invited to interview, or even accepted, before I heard back at all. I guess it goes to show there's always a chance. It probably also shows that the interview will be an uphill battle for late invites.
I think the reason for the 60% isn't necessarily because of less invites, but more because everyone who attends has to have an interview. I figure there's people applying who are pretty much slam dunks and 99% likely to get in as long as they don't completely screw up the interview (i.e., if interviews were not mandatory, this group would receive a direct admit). I think that group is inflating the 60% statistic a little, depending on the size and bunch of assumptions I just made.
