Got an invite about 1 PM today 

Welp. Either mine is lost in limbo or I'm expecting a rejection

No they are sending them out starting today and then into next week. Could be coming

They send out in waves.  I know a person who got a phone call while they were conducting interviews a few years ago and they asked if she was free for an interview later that week.   

They will be sending out more on Monday I'm sure.

What would your application say if invited to interview? Were the invites sent out via email?

They were sent via email from the admin assistant

I also applied and on my application it says "awaiting decision". This is a little frustrating. I'm a little confused as to how they offer interviews and how many? Are we supposed to just wait around until December and hope we get offered an interview? Has anyone else applied to this program before and have more insight?

[Beanccrn]

Yeah, I'm hoping they send out at least some more this week. Then I'd imagine a few more randomly as people may decline interview offers prior to actual interviews taking place. It's an unpleasant position to be in but this is just how it goes.

Ugh, I have my fingers crossed that I get offered an interview. I also applied to ECU and interviewed earlier this month and got a rejection letter. Their process was a lot faster than this one.

Samesies. When I talked to the director for WCU they said that the hurricane messed with their entire admission process/timeline. They're still recovering.

I imagined so, and I truly feel bad that I am being impatient haha. However, I read last years forum post and it seems like the process dragged on until January.

I applied last year and didn't hear anything until about a week before the interviews, but it was because they had an opening for an interview where someone cancelled. This whole process is frustrating so I get it.

So, my question now is: did all of the first option people already get offered interviews or are those still being sent out? Haha. Are we second or third option at this point?
