My files at KCUMB and OSU-COM were processed on the 3rd week of November, and my KCOM was processed on about the second week (I got my materials in a little late, I know).

I am still waiting for an interview. 😕 I am seriously considering applying to my current university for a masters degree now.

Is anyone in a similar situation? Can anyone hazard a guess about what I should do (wait longer, call them and beg, etc...)?

It won't hurt to call them. The fact that you have not received an outright rejection yet though is good. Give them a call tomorrow just to check on your status and let them know you are very excited to move to the next step. Good Luck, let us know!

Don't give up hope. A few of my friends are in your situ, dreadfully waiting but the adcoms will come around...I agree, it doesn't hurt to call though. Good luck! 🙂
 
After applying in late June, early July, I have gotten 3 interviews so far. At other 3 schools, my file is with adcom and will hear from them shortly, hopefully. I have called admission offices couple of times and expressed my concerns and all of them have been pretty helpful and understanding, patient.
Still waiting to hear from NYCOM, UNECOM and LECOM.
Good luck brother.

Ok, because I'm still too chicken to call, I just emailed all 3 schools I'm applying too. I'll post here when I get replies.
Got a super fast reply from KCUMB. They overlooked a technicality in my file that I brought to their attention and now my file is sitting on the VP of Admission's desk for a more thorough review. 😱 It's a good thing, though.
KCOM emailed pretty quickly, they are reviewing my file sometime this week.
Still haven't heard from OSU...
