Are they a little late to start this year? Usually invites go out late August for mid September.
 
And first 3 interview dates are 9/16, 9/19, and 10/10

They dont send emails? What if we miss the call

I guess they like to call to hear people's reactions. I'm honestly not sure, but I imagine they leave you a voicemail to call back? If you see a San Francisco number calling I'd do whatever you can to answer!

Congrats on the interview! I was wondering if your status changed on your app?

Hey. I got an email saying my application is complete and under active review on 8/5, but I haven't heard back from them since then. Did you answer the phone call when they called or did you let it go to your voice mail?
 
Yes I answered the call. I saw the San Francisco area code and didn’t want to miss it in the event it was an interview invite!
 
Does anyone know if their interview is one-on-one or group interview? I just received their call today

From what I understand, it’s a one on one with a faculty and a one on one with a student, but I’m also wondering this too! the adea page also says “informal group”

Oh ok. Thank you. From what I read on their page, it says students would be interviewed by one or more members of the Admissions Committee

Hey. Do you know if the interview is open-filed or closed-filed?
 
The interview is open file. And the informal group part of the interview is open discussion with other interviewees and an admissions or faculty facilitator. Mostly just an opportunity to get to know everyone and ask any questions you want.

I don't think I've ever read anything related to family legacy at UOP.
 
I got an interview yesterday. I applied to very few schools and I am soo nervous because this is my only interview. Does anyone know if it's still the case that UoP tends to accept most interviewed applicants?

Congrats! Do you happen to know if they're just starting to send out invitations to international applicants? I'm international and haven't heard back 🙁
