Hi all!
My PI contacted me and offered me an official interview (a doctoral counseling psychology program). My PI explained that I can either choose to attend a Skype interview or an in-person interview, and the program will treat applicants attending the two equally.
I chose the Skype option due to work. However, the program’s website specifically wrote that applicants not attending the on-campus interview will be disadvantaged due to faculty unable to determine fit. I also know that with the Skype option, I’ll talk with two faculty for 30 minutes, including my PI; and at the on-campus interview, I’ll have multiple formal and informal interviews with faculty and current students.
I now feel that I should have gone with the on-campus interview, but I already told my PI that I’ll do the Skype interview. Do you all think it’s necessary to worry about this or to email my PI again just to confirm?
Thanks so much! Good luck to everyone applying this year!!
