My child has applied RD to Princeton, Yale, Harvard, etc but as of today Feb 8th, not been contacted for an interview yet. The SAT score is almost perfect (near 1600), Weighted GPA in an AP/IB curriculum from a rigorous school is about 4.5. Really good EC’s and essays. If you have received the interview Email- Please indicate when and your general geographic location if possible. Hoping it doesn’t mean much yet. Thanks!
My daughter had an interview with Princeton in late January.
We’re from New Jersey.
Note: Yale mentions on their website that due to capacity constraints they are prioritizing interviews only for those applicants about whom they need more information.

Whew, that’s good to hear! I’ve gotten interviews from all the other HYPSM done weeks ago and still no communication from Yale. I was worried that this could have been due to an incomplete or non-competitive application, but my stats are decent and I’m getting all the green checkmarks on my checklist.
I would reach out to Princeton admissions if you still haven’t heard. I do alumni admissions every year. Usually they try to offer everyone an interview, even if it has to be virtual, and reports are usually due back by the end of February. Good luck!
