In the status bar, what is the difference between 'complete' and 'under review?'
Click to expand...
It might say Under Review first because they (usually staff) are checking to see if you have everything turned in. Complete means they have everything for you (app, 2ndary, fee, etc), then it will be sent to the admissions committee for review (this is the actual review before you are invited for an interview).

Yup for sure an interview invite. I got the webinar invite earlier today and had a quick jump of excitement but then realized it was just a generic webinar invite. Got an interview invite later today and was asked to choose from 2 dates in September.
