Wouldn't call it a back up. It was my first choice for a long time, until I heard of LGO. I was late to the party for LGO, did my application in 3 weeks.. Maybe this works for the best since I already live in the bay area. I did my bachelors from Stanford too so I wanted a different university experience. Gonna wait till the end of the 10th and to get a conformation that all interview slots are filled before I pay the deposit and move forward.[/quote]
Yeah, it's always nice to do advanced degrees at a different university than undergrad, but Stanford's program still sounds great!
I'll keep checking the portal and will let you know when all of the interview spots have been claimed.

Thanks so much. Look forward to an update. Kinda curious though how come there are just 80 slots to interview. And if in fact, all invites were sent out, I am shocked there are as many as 19 people who have not bothered to reserve their slots as of yet.. With the current scenario, ~48 seats and 61 candidates makes for a very good ratio to crack through!

Well 80 is a rough guess, since it looked like they were offering about 20 slots maximum on each of the 4 interview days. I'm also guessing that the admissions committee has factored in a certain number of people who they know won't be able to do on-campus interviews (i.e. overseas applicants, active-duty military etc). These applicants might be completing their interviews outside of the presented time slots in the portal.
The fact that there are still 19 slots available is surprising, since I would've thought that most people would move quickly to reserve their preferred time.

Interesting. I surely think they'd keep as many in person slots as the number of invites they send out. Assuming 19 people are international pr active-duty, yet 80 candidates seems a bit less. Curious. Keep us posted
Any other disappointed souls here?
