Got an interview invite this week. Completion date was May 1. Scheduled for June. My friend who interviewed with them 2 years ago said two faculty members were there during the interview session. But a previous member on this thread said there was only 1 faculty. Any other person who is done with their interview this year and can shed more light on this?

I was interviewed by one faculty

Does anyone know what is the criteria of selection at UIC? They do not have a bench test, nor any form of written test (like some other schools have a test case analysis or essay). So do they decide based on just one interviewers opinion?

For the 30 minutes of interview, were there more than 7 questions ? How many minutes should I spend answering each question ? what are the paper work UIC give after the interview? and they stated that we have to bring 1 photo and TOEFL scores, is that all? and is it ok to have back bag or it would not look professional? Thanks a lot
