Hi everyone!
After seeing a lot of other individuals mention they were asked to do an interview, I reached out to CSUN as well as other individuals who are in the program. I was notified by someone at CSUN that an interview, or no interview, does not dictate our current decision status -- however, they did mention we should know in the beginning of November! I also asked a current student and was told that there have not been any interviews conducted before, and that since the reopening of the program, this is the first time it has been done.
I just wanted to put in my two cents, especially since I believe the lack of knowing what is truly happening regarding our application status can cause so much anxiety. I hope everyone is taking care of themselves and doing well! Good luck to everyone and stay safe and healthy!
