<p>On average, how long does it take from the time a grad school and department recieve all your information to when you get an acceptance decision?</p>
<p>Usually they all go out at the same time unlike for undergrad. It may vary for discipline though...</p>
<p>I got most of mine for my MS applications around Spring Break time.</p>
<p>Does your discipline do interviews? </p>
<p>Many of the schools to which I'm applying (biology PhD) have interview dates after their first cut, and it seems that notifications for the interviews go out in late January/early February.</p>
<p>I didn't have any interviews when I applied first time around...I think that depends on discipline/school. I know people in biology that have interviews...so thats not uncommon...but in my field of geology I don't think they do interviews...guess I'll find out if I'm on the line at Wisconsin this year (3rd in nation for geology)!</p>
<p>Something I forgot! There's this website: Who</a> Got In, where people post when they received their decisions. So if people who applied to your school and program post their notifications, then you'll have a better idea of what sort of time frame you're looking at.</p>
<p>I had forgotten about that site - thanks for the idea.</p>
