It's a hellishly long wait for NYU to start releasing interview invites! Not only is their deadline 4 or 5 weeks after most other top schools but they take 3 months to turn around interview invites rather than 6 weeks!
That has to be a part of why their yield is so low - by the time they get a decision out to people some schools will have issued round 2 decisions!
I assume they must release interviews during that period and we don't all have to wait til Jan or Feb before we hear anything at all from them?
Stern will start sending out interview invites around mid-december and roll them continuously up to the deadline as they review applications. If you check last years spreadsheet you will see quite a few interview invites went out before January. Look at it this way, at most schools you interview then wait another 6 weeks for a decision, Stern usually gets back to you a few weeks after the interview. I would not worry about having to make a decision early, unless you applied to Tuck EA or something most schools will not require a deposit until at least march.
