I have a Feb interview for Albert Einstein... do you guys think this would be for waitlist only?? I scheduled back in October and this was apparently all they had.

No.

I can't be the only one who saw this topic and thought of Albert Einstein and relativity of time.

It's not for waitlist only but I'd be willing to bet a large sum of money that the odds are against you at that point. If you have an acceptance at a comparable school and have to pay a lot to travel, it probably isn't worth going.

I would disagree with this for AECOM. They schedule their interviews so far months and months in advance, and since they slowly give back decisions, I really don't think the odds are necessarily against the applicant. He/she got the invite in October, so they liked his or her application quick enough depending on when the OP was marked complete. For schools that are strictly rolling I would agree with you, but for schools whom phase their decisions on specific days, I don't think the time of interview is as important as other factors or as much as an earlier interview is for rolling schools.

That makes me feel a bit better. This is my last interview but I don't have an acceptance yet so was just wondering if my chances were already diminished. Thanks!
