Scheduling interviews

Hello all,

I recently got interviews to western and midwestern (Hoping for a nova interview)! My main concern was if my chances for acceptance will get harder the later I schedule my interview. Looking at MWU, their available interview dates are thurs October 15 then not again till November 2 and 3rd. If I take up the later dates, will my chances for a seat diminish?

Probably, because that's the definition of rolling admissions: as the cycle goes on, more and more seats are filled so at later interviews you're competing for fewer available seats. But if your application is impressive enough, it might not make enough of a difference for you to be rejected the later you schedule your interviews.

It seems crazy throughout the process to miss class and keep paying for plane tickets, but it's worth it! Your teachers will understand and give you some slack for missing class if you let them know what's going on! It will be a busy year, but you are making a decision that will effect the rest of your life! Take time and enjoy the process!

Totally agree.

If you don't mind answering, how long did it take to get interview invites from the time your optomcas applications were completed?
