How soon do they normally schedule interview after application was submitted?
My impression is that the time frame varies greatly from region to region, @Ballerina016, and depends on how the person running the interview committee for the region chooses to handle the assignments. Some kids on the list have already reported having their RD interviews, and others will not have them until February or even early March. Good luck to your D.
Thank you @EastGrad She submitted her application a week ago.
