Your chances absolutely change once you get an interview! (so good job!) As far as how much it changes, that really depends on a few things. I've heard of programs doing it differently, so I can't speak to those... but in my program about 25ish people typically interview for 4-6 spots. The important factor in that is the # of people applying for your particular POI. Last year we had say 3-4 per POI, except one POI interviewed like 8 (!) So you see, the chances are really different for those applying under that POI. When I interviewed, I was competing against 3 others - which means I had a 25% chance. Then it turns out that my POI secured extra funding and had 2 spots! I was actually the 3rd choice, but since the 1st choice chose a different school, I was admitted along with another person.I, too, am wondering how your chances of admission change after you get invited to the interview. How many applicants do programs usually invite to interview?
Also, some programs do not feel that they have to pick someone. I think for some places, they'd rather not fill the spot than admit someone who was clearly not a good fit for the program. [for instance if their first 1-3 choices turn it down, they may not go all the way down the list] This happens much less often, but it does happen. This makes your odds especially difficult to figure out.
