I didn't know this prior to applying but it doesn't feel good at all not having any interviews under your belt while everyone else is getting them. I really regret not applying to one of the schools (i.e. case, nova, etc) known to give out early interviews just so that I can have a piece of mind. anyone else?

Be patient... I was in that situation last year, and was just starting to maybe think of a plan B for the following year when I got a couple invites. Everything from then on happened so fast, and now I will be starting d-school in a couple weeks.

It is a long, stressful, tortuous process. I guess much how the next 4 years will also be for me. :D

Thanks for sharing the greatest info! :thumbup:
 
way too early to be worried about not receiving any interviews yet.
 
It's too early to worry. IMO , when you get invites , you are so excited and scared as well--because there's still one more step to pass in order to get accepted :)
