Interview Confusion--Am I Supposed to Request?

<p>I'm in the process of applying to penn for RD. However, I haven't quite understood whether I'm supposed to be requesting an interview or submitting my app and then waiting to be called. Also, is there any specific date that Penn wants apps in by for the sake of getting an interview? I thought I saw a date somewhere but I may be entirely mistaken seeing as I can't find it now. Thanks!</p>

<p>Nah lol, I turned mine in 30 minutes before the deadline and I got a random interview call like the next week so, just submit your application when you can, but it'd probably be better to submit it earlier because there will be more applicants come the RD round</p>

<p>no, you don't request interviews - if you aren't contacted, you won't have one (but then that won't count against you)</p>

<p>The interview period ends already i think...Nov.1 to Dec.1 as Penn website said..but Penn interview is not that important right></p>

<p>^that's only for ED applicants.</p>

<p>The interview period for RD applicants starts at Jan. 1st</p>

<p>I'm applying RD, and I got a call today</p>
