So if we are not hearing from these programs for invites, but haven't got a rejection from them, does that mean we are just waiting for a rejection, or maybe they'll send out emails in waves?


That is the same question that is crossing my mind.



As an aside, Ohio State's website says they will notify either way tomorrow. Anyone know of any other published notification dates?

On the timing of interview offers:

"Many of the programs send invites out on a 'rolling' basis.. but not in a traditional sense.

1. They review the applications in groups (lets say they have 450 total) ie they do 150 at a clip..and send out invites for their each specific date.
2. Other programs essentially rank everyone. They send out a bunch of invites say rank 1-100..not everyone will reply..some will cancel, etc. etc.. then they go down the list as spots open up. Now, some people ahve the logic "well, such and such program gave me an invite right away, and this program only sent me an invite when a spot opened up..that must mean I'm at the bottom of the list, so I should choose to interview at the program invited me first"... this logic is incorrect. The fact is, candidates are so alike, that it is VERY hard to rank applicants in some kind of order. As a result, many people don't get interviews.. by chance. So, you could very well be competitive in a programs eyes.. you just had bad luck...but things are a changin' if you get an invite. Plus, even if you are #100 on the ranked list.. that doesn't mean jack.. many programs place high emphasis on the interview. So, in the end.. just choose a place that you want to goto."

Thought this would helpful for everyone this year.
